just wondering if anyone had any experience with this site as the paid to play program seems too good to be true. So far the only setback is the 30 days required to withdraw the initial deposit + bonus.

Hey,

I've played at ProPoker on a few occasions. The deposit bonuses are fine. I've gotten the paid to play promotion a few times. Here is the catch and this is the only site that I will say this about. I've played at lots and lots of sites online and I think they were all legit except this one. I think it is rigged and here is why.

I've seen player after player check down the nuts on the river when they were last to act. I've seen big full houses checked down and I've even seen a guy check 7777 when being last to act. This is crazy. This makes me think there are bots. I've stolen raised pots (multiway over $40 pots) on the flop with a $3 bet. Also, it seems to never fail that when there is a multiway pot the button will throw a raise in there with anything. I've seen multiway pots get capped on the turn with one person holding the nuts and another holding 4th pair no draw.

I'm certainly not one to claim that online poker is rigged, it is currently my main source of income. I'm not venting about my losses either, because I actually made money from this site. But, when things are as fishy as what I described above, I'll play elsewhere.
