You only start out winning at Party in the beginning. When they turn the DOOM SWITCH on your account, then you are going to see the bad beats. [/ QUOTE ] Exactly! The DOOM SWITCH determines if you lose or win. Doesn't matter how well you play, when it's on, you are screwed. Simply log in and out SEVEN times to deactivate it. The SEVEN RULE. Most important online tip there is. Someone should make this reply a sticky.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] please die soon. [/ QUOTE ] Why so hateful? [/ QUOTE ] Because your post is silly. "Party is better because I'm running good there." [/ QUOTE ] I understand variance and all the rest. I have played around 100 tournaments on Pokerstars and I have lost with the best hand about 90% of the time. The rest of the time I got blinded out. Even, tho I have only played around 10 tournaments on Party I have not lost with the best hand once. It is always a matter of being blinded out. Just an observation and I know it can change. No need to be so hostile. [/ QUOTE ] Don't go all in with the best hand and you'll win 90% of the time then. Duh. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I was under the impression that it was not so evenly divided. My apologies for wasting everyone's time. I am not so narrow-minded that I can not accept new facts. [/ QUOTE ] good for you. accepting this possibility is definitely a positive. FWIW - I can't confirm WHICH site has more people claiming the 'cards are rigged' vs. the others. But I can say that there are MANY players who think the cards on Party are just plain wrong. (and, as I mentioned, the number of people on the PPM cruise who talked incessantly about this was just astounding). I suspect that more people believe the cards to be rigged on party though....simply because more people play there...thus more people suffer horrible beats there. Obviously a lot of people play on Stars too. So there are indeed quite a few people who make the claim that Stars beats are the worst and that it really IS deserving of the nickbane RiverStars. Finally - there is a stunningly high percentage of live players who will request deck-changes after they get dealt 62o for the 3rd consecutive hand...somehow deducing (evidently) that a new deck will increase the chances of them finally getting the premium starting hand that they've been waiting for.

Re: There IS a difference between Party and Pokerstars tournaments.
Stay with it man--these guys are stinking it up with "their thoughts" which are marginally based on reality. There is a difference between the same priced chevy and ford and a blind mechanic would be able to clarify this.
The cant "random" is "random" is "random" is horse manure but these advocates refuse to give it any thought. Card distribution, perforce, would have to be different at different sites and in fact take on the character of of the RNG. To predict the distribution is of course another story and terribly highly unlikely. Only "MONK" could do this. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. Bye the bye, there is a difference between an auto shuffler and a human being with the human being far on top.The whole tenor of the game changes when mechanical methods intervene. carlo

Did not say that it is defective just different. They use a different RNG (pokerstars even uses the mouse movement in its algorithm) and therefore the distribution CAN NOT be identical. [/ QUOTE ] I can't believe I got sucked into this potential quagmire but this post was just too juicy to pass up. If they were identical like you seem to wish they were then how could either one be random? Get back to me in a few decades with your answer to that question.
