Which Poker Site is the Best for Fair Play and Winning? (Or are some Rigged?

[Tubanjo]

I’ve been grinding online for a while, and I keep hearing players say certain sites (*cough* 888, GG *cough*) feel designed to make you lose—crazy coolers, non-stop bad beats, or ‘algorithm magic’ that favors fish. But is it just variance, or are some platforms truly worse for regs?
sooo
Where do you think the games are fairest?
Is it all in our heads, or is game integrity a real issue?

Well take a look on any poker forum and you will find people swearing this site is rigged.....

or that site is rigged, then you have people who love all those same sites....

I'm thinking it's not the site, it's the player😎👍

Its all in your head.

or is game integrity a real issue?

Game integrity is an issue, but not in form of the sites cheating their customers. However players might cheat each other by colluding, multiaccounting, using real time assistance (RTA) and so on and so forth. The larger and more reputable sites have the best security to track cheaters and kick them out.

Wpt global is a fair play

Funny enough, I have the exact opposite experience 😄
Everything works fine for me on 888poker — cashouts are smooth, support responds, and the games feel good.
But on pokerstars… the coolers are just insane!
If I get AK, there’s a 90% chance that hand is going to lose 😅
So the lesson is simple: play where you're actually winning, not just where things are “supposed” to be better.

If it is a large and a widely known site you should have nothing to worry about (at least against the site itself, as previous posters already said before, multi-accounting, RTAs and others player-side cheating methods do occur even there, but it has nothing to do with bad beats and runouts).

Though some small barely-known unregulated shady websites can be just that, so be careful when choosing your poker room, but neither 888 nor GG meet that criteria, these are established poker sites, and most of the "rigged" threads are mostly people who vent about bad beats.
