They are are just going by there rules!   You see it because they get payed first because you are renting that spot on the table.

It would be nice if every thing in life would rent free.  Money would not be needed.  Just think about it.

There would be no excuse to work!!   But until that happens they get the rake first for providing the space for the people you described in your post to play for entertainment or whatever. ;D  Besides it does not happen all the time! :D

AS THE SAYING GOES:

You know the more i play the more obvious it seems but hey if your playin 100 hands an hour you are going to see some crazy stuff! Just remember that you have won with the worst before, Antway check this out !  I was playing 1 Euro tables on Crazy poker I had 100 euroes on table and got AA of course we boyh got all thwe money in and all the board was 5 diamond,we both had AA and he had the Ace of diomonds that was terrible but I brushed it off , went for a butt and came back to take it from him with QQ vs JJ so you get and give i guess,if you have a bad feeling then fold , myself ,I have ffolded AA many times when 2 or more people are all innn ahead of me preflop and every time i had folded them i woulda lost to an under set

I can see what you are saying but a poker site
is still a buisness they are there to make money
there not going to give you back your rake in any
kind off hand.
Solution to the glass is half full - half empty ......

If you are taken something out of the glass than its half empty if you are putting something in the glass than its half full..
