My ranking is very low and no matter how I play I can’t seem to climb up to a better score. I know I’m not the best player, but neither in my a bad player. But why is it that my opponent time after time after time get phenomenal hands and I rarely get a phenomenal hand?. I’m finding it impossible to get a better ranking. I play in the local league so I’m I know I’m an okay player.

Ignored the 'ratings' or 'rankings' They are meaningless and do not reflect a player's skill level. If you are a VIP player, worry about winning games. VIP players NEVER look at ratings. Ever. Play for fun or for the ladder. You will find players willing to play with you regardless of your rating. Don't get frustrated and ignore the ratings. If you click on a player, you can see how many games they have won and lost. Remember that the very best players in the world win between 55-60% of the time. If you see a player with a 2800 rating that has won 40% of their games, it is fake. Ignore the fakes and have fun playing!

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
