The software will let you win a little at first but then take it all back and more and put you into situations you can't get out of without losing.
Also, almost every hand I get dealt is something playable. Suited connectors, pocket pairs. They deal you hands that make you want to get into the pot.
Having said that I have a friend who makes regular profit there so maybe it's not rigged. Just seems fishy on there sometimes with a lot of russians and east europeans colluding or they could potentially be bots. Also with any online poker theres the danger of your hole cards being visible to a third party, pokerstars themselves for example. It is a mafia run business as are most gambling related things, bookmaking etc.
Congratulations. In a thread with a lot of terrible posts, you've finished the year with one of the worst I've seen. It's like you've collected every possible wacky theory you've thought of or heard and thrown them all into one post.
How do you think bots work? In your world, does being a bot mean it's able to see hole cards or cheat in some fashion?
How does the software make you lose, and how does this benefit the site?
How does getting you in every pot benefit the site?
How does the profitability of a single friend in any way, shape, or form, affect any of your theories? If all it takes is one friend's results to poke a hole in all your theories, they probably weren't very well-founded in the first place.
Do you know what collusion is? How could collusion look like botting, or botting like collusion? How, in your mind, are they related?
What makes you think your hole cards can be seen?
What evidence do you have that the publicly traded company that owns Stars is mafia run?
