Real poker is live - what you see online is a game based on the real thing! Any other thought are unrealistic and without foundation!

Why would any site chose to alter cards? Maybe it is not totally random but everyone is playing from the same deck of cards. Poker is different from house game, in that they collect regardless of the result. Their fee is the $1 in a $10 game ($10+$1 tournaments). It makes no difference who wins, they collect at the start. In a ring game, they collect rake, that is generally 3-5% of the total pot. They dont care who wins.
If a is rigged, the large stack wouldnt win because the site would want to keep everyone in, to continue draining the players of rake. Why rig cards to bust the short stack?
