God, we aren't talking about small time rake games,I'm talking about high end games and tourneys. I'll confess I've never actually played at pokerstars for money... but their weekly sunday tournament consistently gives top prize of over 115K. If they randomly created bots or even used players that had access to the software, wouldn't that be an advantage to them.

Secondly, How would anyone ever know they were doing it.... I'm sure they have a great random number generator thats gets tested and certified, but anyone with adminstrator privileges would be able to see everyones hand. The company has the potential to skim a good deal of money off the top with very little "exposure" as you call it.

Of course saying the game is rigged is an easy excuse because you can't prove otherwise. I'm not stating that is or is not rigged, but the possibility of it is far more likely then you think.
