I think this tells you everything you need to know about this poster (Trilateral Commission, anyone?). My bet? Hoax.

But while we're on the subject . . .
One important difference between B&M & online cardrooms is that every single hand played online is PUBLIC. All those millions of hands (or is it billions, Carl?) can be downloaded into databases and analyzed 9 ways to Sunday.
A quick check of this site shows there are quite a number of datageeks doing just that all the time.

Do you think maybe, if a major site were rigged, somebody would have noticed by now? Do you think they might like to get on Primetime Live with their findings with an hour-long special? How about someone working for a competing site? Mightn't they have a rooting interest?

Like the Amazing Randi, waiting by the phone for someone to take him up on his decades-old $1 million offer to anyone who could present proof of the existence of ESP, we're all still waiting.

Al, you're a better man than me. I'm just not able to respond to that post without making fun of the poster.

This poster is wrong, and so are you about Randi. James Randi is an idiot, several people have offered to take him on over the so-called offer for ESP but he has the habit of setting impossible-to-meet conditions (so I have heard). If you want proof of the existence of ESP speak to the Military regarding their "remote viewing" experiments (both in the USA and Soviet Union) or maybe just take a look at the results produced by the internationally respected PEAR Lab. at Princeton University (Princeton Engineering Anonmalies Research Laboratory). They have a website and some of the research and background is published in their book "Margins of Reality".

It is not a question of whether ESP exists or not, it exists and demonstrably so. The problem is (i) providing some kind of mechanism to explain it, which is necessary for any theory to have credence and (ii) finding out the practical uses and limitations.

Those who belong to the "there is no evidence" are basically the same as Randi "we refuse to listen, we refuse to see, so we refute (as we have neither seen or heard)". There is a huge and growing body of credible evidence if you would only bother to look (which you clearly have not). Sure there are any number of crackpots, but there are also a growing number of respected physicists and psychologist, surgeons etc. that now accept its existence both from experimental data and the substantial quantity of anecdotal and experiential evidence. If you refuse to believe it, you are a fool, the evidence is overwhelming. Oh well, I hope your flat-earth membership goes though ok...

The first problem with your argument is you say that there are sharks. If the cards are rigged then there can be no sharks to take your money. Only the casino takes your money. And the rake is much greater than your roll to them. If you had pokertracker and analyzed your rake vs winnings after a while at a low to mid limit you would see that while you may make a killing on your pley, the casino still makes more.

If the games arent beatable, why for two years have I won more than 500 a month playing in my spare time.
