Which online poker room is best, most honest poker room to play at?

I've played on Poker Stars, Ultimate Bet, Pokerroom and Party poker and skins, but I would have to admit I play Party Poker the most due to their frequent reloads. One concern I have is the honesty in card distribution at Party Poker. Because of this I'm considering taking my game to another site, but my question is which one can I trust that will still offer me an edge in the game.

I've read opinions that the reason Party Poker has so many bad beats is because of all the fish, but I also believe they deal out so many bad beats at this site to encourage the fish to come to their site and stay at their site. What better way to level the playing field and create a gambling atmosphere where anybody can win. I've heard plenty of debates on this topic and I am still convinced party poker is rigged. How else would they have become the largest poker room on the internet? Their software isn't the best to play on....

When I'm ahead on the flop in party poker I find myself gritting my teeth praying that the bad beat doesn't come, but when I'm in the same spot on poker stars I feel more at ease because I know I'm way ahead and my opponent needs a "miracle" to beat me. On Party Poker miracles come way too often.

I should be willing to confidentally put my opponent all in on the turn when he's drawing to a flush and not be in fear for my life when he calls. In my experience on party, when ever I put someone all in on the turn and they call as a 5 to 1 underdog they hit over half the time. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but 5 to 1 = lose 5 times win once not lose 3 times and win 3 times.

This has really been messing with my head as far as how the game should be played. The only time I feel confident in being all in with a big hand is on the river when the best hands is more easily known.

I have a cousin who also plays on this site and he has resorted to a very unusual method of playing in order to beat people on this site. He has played over 50,000 hands making very small bets and very small raises and according to poker tracker he's made on avg 6 BB/per hour. He is rated as weat tight in my poker tracker. I had him try Poker Stars and he got his ass handed to him. He has learned how to become a party poker specialist, but cannot beat the game anywhere else.

Party Poker just isn't poker.... If their card distribution was truely random I don't believe Party Poker would have so many fish and thus would not be the largest poker room on the Internet. Think about it. NL holdem is suppose to be hours of boredom and moments of terror. On Party Poker the game is hours of terror because you get dealt big hands that you can't ever get bored. This is great if you're in it for the action of it all, but if you're playing for money, this can send your variance into a roller coaster ride that you may not recover from.

How else is it that hours can go by where no big hands come up and people are taking down good sized pots with top pair and Ace high, but as soon as one person gets a big hand like a full house, boom. There is the 4 of a kind. I lost 4 full houses in 2 hours on party poker once and each time I was beat by quads. That's equivilent to playing 12 hours in a B&M casino and getting those big hands cracked all in one day. Another example is almost every time I get KK someone allways seems to have AA or they have AK and catch an Ace. I've even gone all in with AA preflop and been called by a 76s only to lose to 7s and 6s. How can I get slapped around by these long shots so many times.

Anyway, the bottom line is I don't trust this site and I'm wondering if anybody has an opinion on this and perhaps a better recommendation where playing tight aggressive is a winning way to play.

imo, no it is not rigged. The research has been done that shows their card distribution is random.

For limit I would tell u to play mainly at stars and ub.

Do you have Poker Tracker? If so, post some numbers for comment.

U prolly just running into the down side of variance or not playing well or havent played enough hands to overcome the variance.

Using your logic, I think Lance Armstrong is an alien from the planet Kryptonite. I mean how else could a man with only one gonad win the Daytona 500 6 times in row on a bicycle?
