Awsome post, this is complex.

People avoid pain. Bad beats to the person who can't control his emotion, cause pain.

In an attempt to end the suffering the brain seeks to find explanation. Hence the conspiracy theories.

Confirmation Bias then rears it's ugly head, and they see what they are looking for, over and over again, thus re-enforcing the belief.

Read "Emotional IQ", by Daniel Goleman. It will then make sense.

However, I start to wonder, if those who choose their reality, would win more, than those who don't.

In physics, there is proof, that the observer, affects the state of the particle being observed. In the New Testament Jesus healed people because they believed. Makes me wonder if the biggest poker winners are the ones who believe they can win, most completely and sincerely. And whether the RNG COULD be affected by that belief... Down the Rabbit Hole Alice, here we go...

Poker can lend itself to God. If you can win at poker, (being in right mind, not on tilt) You can apply that. To be right with God requires emotional control. You can't talk to him when you're all messed up. You can't think properly when you are angry, or let your emotions rule your decision making. When I'm mad, I am irrational.

Genral lack of emotional control, is just another addiction to the hormones created in the hypothalamus durring a feeling of Anger, Sadness, Jealousy ect. The hormones interact with the cell receptor sites the same way cocaine and other drugs do. You, most probably, can, become addicted, to an emotional state.

People who are depressed stay that way, some people are always mad, road rage, ect.

Did I cover everything?

"The strange thing is that there will be religious people who are completely rational regarding the RNG conspiracy."

Believing poker sites are rigged doesn't get you into heaven. Perfect post otherwise.

Two fish in a tank are arguing. Soon the argument gets heated. Next thing, you see a bunch of gills and fins and stuff and both fish are pretty beat up.

"Oh yeah," says one, "If there's no god, who changes the water?"
