That sucks that it's rigged...for you, because it's allowing me to win.

Maybe I sold my soul?

No, you are just another fish that the site rewards to keep you playing, while they run off all the real players.

I seriously believe the OP is a Party Poker employee.

He is. I had a friend from MIT run some data, and it showed he was a Dikshit.

So what if I request the last ten million hands played on the site and run them through Poker Tracker? What if a player with a million hands asks for his hand history? We'll send them to him. How could we do that if we didn't have complete confidence in the shuffle? We could simply say "nope, we're not sending you the hands", like other sites do.

"So what if I request the last ten million hands played on the site and run them through Poker Tracker?"

This will not be a test of all possible cheating schemes. It's quite difficult to do rigorously. Even when well done, assuming the site is dishonest, you will have little more than stong tangental indictment, not proof.

Actual proof lies in the source code.

Sample size too small.

So does this mean you distrust the auditing companies that've seen the source code?

Yum. I always thought you needed one of those little torches. The kind that are only owned by people with egg separators and stoneware that matches their wallpaper border.

The crystallization of the sugar does work best with a blowtorch, but forget the small "specialty" cooking torches. An old fashioned manly hardware store blowtorch quickly creates a crisp golden shell without heating your custard through.

Specialty torches are for food fetishists who think nothing can enter their kitchen unless it looks cute on a doily.
