Default Re: Is online poker really rigged? Check it out

Glitches do happen on some sites...perhaps moreso after an upgrade.

Remember the hand and subsequent chat that Lorinda posted a while ago where one of the opponents had 4 hole-cards (it was a hold-em hand...she only had 2 cards...and strangely she got the impression that this was probably a disadvantage)???


Stupid glitches (if this one really DID happen) are hardly evidence that online is rigged though. It means that the program might be messed up though but that doesn't have much to do with the 'randomness' of the cards.


FWIW - the chances of getting dealt to 5h on the same hand would be MUCH higher in a live room.
Yeah, they check the deck before they start...but oversights and bad-decks/mis-prints happen.
