    Because of the laws of probability and statistical variation, unless of course you believe the site is rigged?

     the laws of probability state that i should get a random selection of cards, that being the case i should therefore get a fair selection of cards and not hundreds of hands all night that were garbage!! and then by chance you get a dacent hand not to be called all in with 2-3/9-6 /q-3/ and get beat every time give me a break?

    You will get a random selection of hands over tens of thousands of hands. I played on another site for a while that allowed me to use poker tracker. After 4500 hands I'd had aces twenty times which is to be expected since getting AA is about 220-1. What was not to be expected is that I had won every single time with them after twenty occasions.

    Does this mean that AA is an unbeatable hand the way I was playing it? No, it means that my sample size of 4500 hands was not large enough.

    If you'd been dealt hundreds of thousands of hands and been getting consistant garbage hands and when you got a "good" hand you were dealt a bad beat then you might want to wonder if the site was rigged or something. But not after a few hundred hands I'm afraid
