If you have ever played poker online, did it ever feel like the software was having you on? For example if you are suddenly in a winning streak, then next few hands will try to make you loose by making the other player have maybe a slightly better hand?
Ive noticed this everytime i play, it may just be luck and badluck, but the software is supposed to be completly random. The other day i managed to get dealt the winning cards of the player who won the last 3 hands.
A few weeks before that i got dealt KK, then QQ, and on the third hand i got dealt JJ. I mean what are the chances of that happening?
So if there is anyone out there who has had the same problem, or programmers who are ready to set me straight about the poker software then please get chatting with me.
Thanks

I think that might be true depending which site you are on. I know that a lot of people who play online poker have some fake software that allows them to see what is in your hands...Especially if you are on a not-so-well known site. I hope this helps.
