Online Euchre is rigged

ApolloQuiet · #1 05-27-2005, 11:05 AM

And here's the proof:

I was playing at Pogo, practicing with the computers, and I had a hand with the J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], so when it got to me I called diamonds alone as trump. Wouldn't you know it, my two computer opponants had the A,K,Q,T AND the 9 of diamonds as well as the A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], and they beat beat me in 3 out of the 5 tricks, as well as beat me out of 2 points. Thank God I haven't put any money into it yet, but I know that those game servers are sitting smugly in their little compartments laughing at me and calling me a nit. My ego just can't take it.

Let this be a forewarning to you all.

There aren't enough euchre players to matter.

I guess I had visions of grandjour (sp?). Since online poker is obviously rigged, I was looking to become the new Chris Moneymaker of some 'sport'. Think about it......ESPN presents.....The 2007 World Championship of Euchre!

Maybe Parcheesi!?!

Dude, I'm not sure that you are a very good Euchre player. If all you had was the two red jacks, no other diamonds (or hearts since you called diamonds), and obviously no aces, going alone was clearly not the right play and you deserved to lose your two points. I'll play you for money anytime if you want to play like that.

If you think Euchre is rigged, you need to enter the vicious world on online Chutes and Ladders. I land on that one ladder that drops you a third of the board 75% of the time.
