Best of luck to you.
Check out the entries on SharkScope for the people you play against. You'll see the expected spread of winners and losers. The ability score is not hidden, and many players opt in so you can see their tournament histories.
Or is the fix only on in cash games? Why, when you have slot machines with guaranteed income? You are a subsidiary of a public Australian company, with two other online "social casinos" (Chumba, LuckyLand) and reported plans to expand into other English-speaking countries. Why risk that?
Scandals in the past have revolved around super-users, site insiders who could see hole cards and were embezzling funds for their personal use. Why on earth would you want to mess with an RNG as a means of controlling winners and losers? What a programming nightmare that would be!
Every site has people who don't do well there, and can't think of any reason except that the site is rigged They would rather spend hours "proving" conspiracy, when the time would be better spent looking for leaks. Hand histories would be nice, but I think the lack of those is part of preventing the use of HUDs and other tracking tools.
It does take adjustments to do well at Global. You have to tighten up and tighten up again, in my opinion. There are players at Global so bad that you'd think you were back in the early 00s at Party Poker. In addition to the clueless, there are many good players. Fortunately, the player pool isn't huge, and you get to recognize the good players fairly quickly. It's nice to have short late registration, relatively quick tournaments and simple, consistent structures.
Maybe others can add their own suggestions, based on their experience at Global. I could sure use the help - I'm slightly above even after a rough start.
BTW, there is an official Global discord group. You need an invitation code, which you'll have to ask Global or another member for.
