Is this true about FTP? Is this true about FTP?

A lot of people are saying that FTP is rigged favoring big hands and putting big hands against big hands for bigger rake. I'm not sure but I have played 2,200 hands (which is not much) and people have rivered me non stop (I would have the straight and they river a full house with their flopped set). I would have a set and they runner runner a straight. I have a set and they have a higher set. I have done the same with other people (only difference is that its checked down with me but the other players call my pot raises when they have bad odds to call).

I know "it's not in their best interest to rig the game" but............the industry is not regulated at all............therefore it all becomes speculation. Has anyone else experienced this?

It's not rigged. 2+2 have shown itself capable of revealing real scandals (UB/AP) but in our experience, we have never found enough evidence to suspect FTP at all of rigging the RNG.

Also, sets vs runner runner straights and set vs higher set is super standard. What's so strange about it? It seems to me you just haven't played enough poker and find these hands peculiar when they are quite standard, live as well.

I have read that other forum. In 1 cent 2 cent I was up 19 now I am down 3. I would say 80% were bad beats (My money was in before) and the rest was tilt haha. In Sit N Go I am up 27 (1 dollar and 2 dollar sit N go......9max, 6max and 18 max). I can't say its def. rigged because I win at Sit N go........but my game at Sit N Go avoids bad beats so I would never know haha.

Also........is it just me or are 1 cent 2 cent and 2 cent 5 cent extremely tight at FTP and 5 cent 10 cent much more loose.

I won't be like other members who forget their own luck. I made a donkey call AQ against AK pre flop all in and hit my queen. Also, I have read much material on cash games including all of Harrington but that information is useless in microstakes.

Technically if I hit an A on the flop and I bet and I get reraised (assuming I have a very low kicker) I have to fold. But in microstakes they can be going all in with A2o..............Harrington would consider me a bum if I called. But then again there are so many kickers that can possibly beat me so I'm either -ev or even ev.
