So what you want me to do is believe that I am the unlucky dumbass who it just happened to happen to and not the more obvious conclusion that something is amiss?

I haven't been keeping all my hand histories because I've been impoving at such a rapid rate, the early playing is not relevant to my ability now.

I said that given the probability of what I have experienced and the fact that these sites are unregulated and unaudited I have come to believe there is some rigging going on. I could never know the extent of it or even how often it occurs. I just have my suspicions because there is some business justification for it like I have identified.

And yet you titled your thread, "Online Poker - Almost Certainly Rigged"

Let me re-iterate.

Hahahahahhhaaaahahahahhah!

Herheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeeeeehahahah! Ha Ha~!

A) We all know the odds of those draws coming in, but we all know the propensity of fish and calling stations to draw to them.

B) As Bobby Baldwin is always saying, if you are playing the best hands straight up, then you will continously get drawn out on, but in the long run you will be a winner.

I just got off a 75BB downswing, during which all kinds of muck drew out on me, and I've only had 9 pairs of Aces in my last 5k hands, but in the long run I'm ahead.
And I have, statistically speaking, round about the right amount of aces dropping in.
(including one time multitabling at two sites, I got two aces at the same time and won with a set on both, now if thats fixed I like it [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] but it hasn't happened since)

No fooling, but I didn't play 700 million hands, I played 7K and it happened.

[/ QUOTE ]

Let's pretend for a second that you really were the victim of such an unlucky event.

You do realize that Party Poker alone has "hosted" 2.3 billion hands?

A lot of the other major sites are up in the billions too.

This string of bad beats that you describe have clearly occurred many times over the course of this many hands, and were statistically probable.

So you got one of them. Quit being a moran.

I accepted that as true all along because it is very logical at first glance. However, my results speak louder than my business theories and sometimes the most OBVIOUS answer IS the CORRECT ONE.


[/ QUOTE ]

Has anyone else noticed that everytime one of these posts shows up it includes a line like this? I find it especially funny because the obvious and correct answer is always "You suck at poker and varriance gave you a kick in the nuts."

There are 3 possibilities, with #0 being by far the most likely.

0. I overestimated my chances to win.
1. I experienced an absolutely amazing statistical event.
2. Something is amiss at an unspecified unregulated gambling site.

[/ QUOTE ]

FYP.

And before we go any further, let us specify the hitherto unspecified things:

1) Post the damn histories, and have your theory vetted.
2) Tell us which site it was - not which site it wasn't.
3) Stop being an arrogant ass and bitching about other people being arrogant asses, naieve, thoughtless, or whatever. One or the other. Both makes you a hypocrite.

Until you do this things, you are just whining unjustifiably.

The answer is certainly not 0 because I know how to count outs and saw the opponents hand because we showed down.

I will keep all hand histories, but the site in question today does not offer them.

Are you talking about a big site like Party, or some offbeat place like your buddies homegame where they stack the deck everytime you take a piss or fu[/i]ckedintheasspoker.com where the same 9 people play on every table and can see what the turn and river cards are going to be before they hit...
