In the long run it probably evens out anyway, some people seem to get annoyed when someone with a massive stack gets moved to our table, I just lick my lips.

i love that too :rock: but i remember getting moved like 6 or 7 times in 2 hrs once.

Sites also tend to move lower stacked people more often, when that happens how are you supposed to go up in chips when you cant get some quality hands in to get up in chips

i have noticed they move the higher stacked players to the lower numbered tables

I have noticed you tend to assign reason to randomness.

I don't mind being moved so much on fulltilt and on partpoker. But I recently opened an account at pokerroom and when they move you in a tournament the do so with no regard to table position. I have been moved 3 times in 7 hands where I just posted my blinds and played the button then was moved UTG at the next table. I again posted my blinds and was moved again to UTG+1 grrrrr. I thought this was highly unfair as blinds were already quite high at 600/1200 and as it was a turbo the relative stacks were fairly short. I keep meaning to email their support about this as the seem to always do this.

Sorry, I said what I did because of folks complaining about being moved just when they get a read or establish a table image. Others had already answered the question of "why?".

Being moved can also be good. Occasionally, after knocking a player out, I'll find myself on a new table where I'm a massive chipleader. They have no idea how I play, and I've got enough chips to be a bully. Can be very lucrative in the short-term.
