I have come to the opinion that online poker is not random.
It seems to favor the better and the raiser.
Case in point.
$1-2 7 stud at Carib Sun.
After folding about 20 hands in a row.
I am the bring-in with (48)4.
2 callers of my bring-in, so I decide to test my theory.
I complete the bet.
My mistake I guess I wasn't the bring in.
Anyway on 4th I get an ace.
both call.
5th another Ace.
I bet .Both call.
6th. A rag,
I bet. Both call.
My river is of course the 4.
I bet .Both fold, /images/graemlins/frown.gif

Seeing as in general aggresive play is usually correct, I would suppose that ALL poker favors the bettor/raiser.

could you provide perhaps one more example of this happening in order to rule out any other possiblities?
Agreed. With a sample size of 1 there is that little bit of doubt but up that to 2 and the doubt is gone.

I'd certainly be convinced.

Now if you showed me a hand that the board showed AAAAA then I'd be convinced.
This whole story looks pretty random to me.

Yeah I'd be convinced with 2, but 1 is just too little.

I'm way more stubborn than you guys. I need to see AT LEAST 3 such hands to be convinced.

I am alot more trusting than you guys. If Bob saw it - it happened! I am still waiting for my check from those nice Nigerian gentlemen.
Thank you,

Umm...so exactly what is the problem then? If you believe that the game you are playing is controlled by a conspiracy that always favors the bettor and rasier then just keep doing that and take your stacks o' cash with a smile. You should be happy and not complaining that you have figured out the secret and now have your own super secret system to on-line poker. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif But why do you have to tell everybody? Now you have ruined it for everybody else. Damn you.

Now with a sample size of 2 It has been unequivically proven that it is not betting or raising that online poker software rewards. The software is obviously rigged so that any 7 stud player starting with 2 4's and an 8 will win.
