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.

This thread would have been way better if you had come up with a clever screen name.

21.9% May not seem like a large # but when you multiply this number by 1 million you can see the amount of hands this relates to and the amount of money lost in these hands.

I assume you mean that I need to multiply it by the first number (not just one million) in order to see the amount of hands this relates to and the amount of money lost in these hands.


1345978 * 21.9% = 29476918.2%

But I'm not sure if this is the number of hands this relates to OR the amount of money lost.
You said I would be able to see these things if I multiplied them together but I'm just not seeing it.

Please provide assistance here. I followed your instructions to the letter but it doesn't seem to be working properly.

Thank you.

Seriously Bob, I thought you were a lot quicker with the math. Clearly he's lost $29,476,918.2%. The way I figure it, thats roughly: <font color="white">Celebrity Jeopardy Joke to follow </font> $Texas.

Would your please post the raw data and your MIT friend's analysis, or put it on a website and post a link?

I didn't think so.

Ir'm a little skeptical of online poker, but this post is ridiculous. As is the use of poker tracker to insure a fair distribution of hands. If online poker sites are going to cheat, they're not going to change the distribution of hands from normal, as this would surely create suspicion. Nor do they have to. They simply have to have access or knowledge of the winning hand before the cards are dealt out, which is entirely possible. They could exploit this information in many ways, including bots or paid shills...
