I have tried different sites and I notice a difference in the distribution of hands. Why does this occur?

Probably because you are comparing way too small sample sizes.

I also get different cards everywhere and everytime i play so there is nothing to worry about imo.

It's because they randomly distribute between 52 cards.

It's a rather strange question. You wanted everything to be the same everywhere. Then perhaps chess is more suitable for you :)

Because of variance. If you flip a coin 10 times in your kitchen, it might come out 7 tails and 3 heads. Then if you do the same in your livingroom, it might be 4 tails and 6 heads. In the bathroom you get 5 tails and 5 heads, and in the bedroom you get 2 tails and 8 heads.

Each site has its own algorithm

Я знаю один покерный сайт I know one poker site with Russia called PokerDom which I will never advise anyone to play there everything is terrible there they give you two aces so that you go all in and with hands 74 or some other cards they knock you out before the money this is the worst site I have played and another terrible poker site is MTT Sports its owners are Belarus next to Russia country that is the site also knocks out they can make the game freeze and so that the player restarts that is fraudulent sites

on 888 I noticed if you win, you are dealt a good hand, but you will lose with it, there will be a move... or vice versa, if you are cooled, and you push the next hand anyhow, you will get there... I want to believe that these are just my observations, but very often it happens... and still, if we play well - we take money out of the room and thanks for that

What do mean a "difference in the distribution of hands"?

If you can document it then it can be exploited, in the very least you (we) can avoid sites that give you (us) a weaker range of hands for example.

It would be great if you can post the data from your research into the distributions.

I noticed that there's still a lot of bad players at this game who choose to blame the sites instead of taking time to improve upon their play. I've been playing for a long time & I KNOW I have A LOT of work to do if I hope to even be competitive at lower stakes online.
Why am I not crushing? It's because there are LOTS of players who are doing lots of work!

Nope, otherwise I'd be mega rich from playing poker.

I notice biased and slightly aggressive responses on the part of some members.

High variance and low analysis quantity... This is how assumptions are born)))

Are you noticing you're receiving help on the sites?
