The latest hand I lost, I went all in and was a 98.08 percent favorite, yet again, I lose. I had 7 heart, and 7 club on a 9 7 K board, and the villain had AK. So we ended up getting it all in, and guess what happens? The turn comes a 9, and the river comes a king, giving him full house to beat my full house. I know 98.08 percent favorite to win(checked it on odds calculator), and losing is not evidence for rigging, but I Have been recording my last 5 all in's, and I have lost all of them, and not only that, but they were all in's where I was the clear favorite(except for one, which was more half half).1st all in, AA vs KK preflop, I lost, 2nd all in, KK vs QQ preflop I lost, third all in I had JJ , he has AA, the flop comes, 48J,we end up going all in, he ends up hitting an ace on the turn. 4th all in was 50, 50ish, with me being the slight underdog, I ended up going all in with flush draw on the flop, and I ended up not getting it, and the last one was the 77 vs AK I just wrote about. It I do the math approximately, the chances of me losing those 5 all in's in a row is something like 1-(.2 times .2 times .12 times .6 times .02) which comes out to some insanely improbably number. Also, these numbers are not fabricated whatsoever, as I made it a note to record my last 5 all in attempts regardless of the results.
Despite this, I still do not think the site is rigged, but does anyone have any hard evidence so that I can be put to ease and just blame it all on extraordinarily bad luck?
I will continue to record my all in's until I reach around 50 sample size, and then I will look at my expected ev and actual winnings again, just for peace of mind.
I know ispokerrigged.com does rigging tests, and found that bodog has no evidence of rigging, but is it safe to assume that bovada is also safe since it is the same company?
I know I sound like a wacko, but after the past 5 all in's, I can't help but be suspicious. It is not like these all in's were coin flips, but rather hands where I completely dominated the villain,(except the flush draw hand)
