Does anyone else think online poker is rigged?

Okay, so I'm not going to tell you what I had until the end. Just know that I was on the big blind, and SIX people limped in (including the small blind). I was mid stacked, and the blinds were high (no limit tourney), so without a monster, I don't think I can push here, since with so many callers, at least one or two people are going to look me up.

So I check.

Flop comes:

Ts
Kd
Qs

It's checked around to someone on the cuttoff, who makes a minimum bet. Everyone calls (including me) since we were getting odds to.

Turn comes
9s

Checked all around

River comes
Js

I bet big. Get SIX callers. Can't freakin believe I lost. What I want to know is, what I did wrong?

I had pocket 9s. So I made trip 9s. Another guy had J9, and totally made a straight. A third guy had pocket kings and made quads. The fourth guy had the 8s6h and made a straight flush! And then some dude turns over the Ace of spades and wins with a freakin ROYAL FLUSH

I couldn't believe it.

I'm never playing at partystarspacificultimatetilt EVER AGAIN!

also, how did someone make quads with pocket K's if there is only 1 K on the board?

What? You expected to win? The odds of someone having an ace were pretty good.

<---- has had a natural Royal Flush before in real poker (not online). It was about the same situation as you. Straight to the ace was showing on the board except a King. Three of us were betting hard, the other two guys had a king but I had the only King that counted ;)

how does one person make a royal and one person make a straight flush with a king of diamonds out there. Also how does a guy make Quads with 2 cards in his hand and 1 king on the table.


EDIT

J9 with those cards on the table, is playing the board.


Also please check the logs because those cards dont work for those hands....


Edit 2

Haven't played poker in a while, I see the straight flush now, still dont see a royal unless the guy had Ks and As. But that would be impossible if someone had quad kings.

Ooops. I screwed that up. I think the second 9 was supposed to be a king. But then the lower straight flush wouldn't have happened.

Okay, never mind then. I guess I made the whole thing up. Heh.

online poker goes through about a bazillion hands per day. If you play every day and you see a 1 in a bazillion hand, guess what - it was your day.

let me get this straight and please, correct me if im wrong

there was a straight on the board 9-K, AND there were 4 spades out

you have pocket 9's and bet big, even though you were playing the board straight? you do realize half the hands you said arent even possible right?

if one guy was able to have 4 kings then the other guy could not have a royal flush. but then that guy was not abel to have 4 kings anyways. this whole story makes no sense.

It does make sense to rig online poker though, more people betting = bigger rake. Playing online is not the same as real life it is a differant game, and you have to realize that.

Self ownage at it's finest

1. Half the hands you listed can't be made with the cards you listed
2. If you really thought you could win that hand with trip 9's against 6 callers you have no business playing poker

Hehe, I don't think they need any rig to clean you out with your horrible play.

Yeah, getting quad kings with one king on the board is pretty impressive!

a set of 9's against a straight on the board, with an ace taking it? you're an idiot for even staying in the hand when you hit the set.

Rigged in what way? You check/called and let everybody make their draws. You should have bet the turn to see where you stood. With six other people in the pot you should have checked the river. So many hands could beat you, and best case it's a split pot.
