I've said this many times, beginner players tend to be favored in the first few weeks to get them to deposit, then they start losing everything, this is a classic, especially on GG Poker, in fact, I don't recommend that Casino, it's the most rigged of them all, that site has no shame at all, I recommend Pokerstars/888Poker (Cash and Tournaments) and WPT (Tournaments only).

I can understand the frustration, especially when the same pattern seems to repeat in the final stages. But I'd be careful about assuming the algorithm is targeting certain players without solid evidence. Sometimes variance can create incredibly convincing patterns over a large sample. I'd be more interested in tracking the hands and decisions over time and seeing whether the numbers actually support the feeling.

I understand the frustration, but a year of play is still a small sample, especially in MTTs. Losing key pots late does not prove the algorithm is targeting you. Track your hands, review your decisions, and focus on volume, bankroll management, and long term results.

Do you play $10 battles in each match?
Yes mostly. A few $3 games as well mostly for getting used to the software and experimenting with playing more than 2 tables.

I understand how frustrating that can feel. We've all had periods where it seems like nothing goes our way. However, I don't believe the site is intentionally favoring new players. Variance in poker can last much longer than most people expect, especially in tournaments and all-in situations.
What helped me was reviewing my own hands, managing my bankroll better, and taking short breaks when I felt frustrated. Sometimes bad runs make us notice only the unlucky outcomes. Staying patient and focusing on making good decisions is the only thing we can really control.

I've been playing gg poker for about a year now. I even paid a deposit shortly after my registration, it was incredible, I was second in my first $2 tournament right away, or the jackpot came out after a couple of games on allinor fold. Cash Gamen came to the big box office. It lasted about two weeks, since then it has been a continuous failure always in any game. For example, I don't dare to go in against players with zero kilometers anymore because I know so much that the algorithm supports them. And it is also interesting that in the final stages I lose in pots without exception, no matter what.
Have you ever played live poker?
How do you complain about a bad beat in live poker—is it the algorithm's fault too? If you suspect the algorithm, stop playing poker immediately.

Gibberish is still gibberish even when repeated.

If people win, they dont need to deposit. If you are going to share conspiracy theories, at least create one, that makes sense.

Sound pretty natural to me, that most beginners are losing. After all poker is a zero sum game with rake, and more experienced players will be better than beginners everything else being equal.

What you really mean, is, that you lost more there compared to other sites?

I also still prefer PokerStars over GG Poker, but to be fair GG Poker have some advantages like significantly lower rake for most micro and low stakes tournaments and higher activity. GG Pokers Battle Royal is not a particularly great game, but you never need to wait more than a minute or two for a new game to start, and PokerStars cant match this any more.

GG Poker also have some cool inventions like full ring cash games with an ante, the option to straddle and a max buyin of 200BB instead of the usual 100BB. As for 888 Poker I can not recommend the site at the moment. Everything above microstakes is basically dead, and customer service is terrible. Emails remain unanswered for weeks, and many people are currently facing problems with payouts. Cant play on WPT so no opinion about that site.
