Pokerstars Is Rigged

Yup, thats exactly my point!

I would like to take this opportunity to announce that i, vabogee, am rigged.

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...

So why don't you post the data? Or tell us your User ID on PS? Or tell us who ran the analysis? Or post the analysis results? Or answer any sensible questions?

[Sciolist]

Sure, but you then run into the same problem of hiding that. If PokerStars say "We do not employ shillls" (which we do say, and which we do not do), then a shill simply has to say to us "Please give me a million dollars or I'm going to post on 2 + 2 with details of my employment with you, and you are going to lose all credibility and thus your customer base".

Do you see any such posts?

And incidentally, I obviously work for PS. I'm not a millionaire though :]

I'm not suggesting they do use shills, I'm just saying that the original posters argument is ludicrous.

Fair enough, I guess I like arguing too much :]

Is it apparent to anybody but me, that:
1) somebody named riggedpokerstars has but one purpose in posting here,
2) somebody with a grand total of 5 posts is truly one of the long standing respected posters around here,
3) 1.3M hands would be an insufficient sample by at least a factor of 100 if not 1000,
4) the "super math wiz" is not to be named,
5) no data, analysis, or statistics are presented,
6) no evidence of the existence of 'bots' is presented,
7) the "places we know that use them" will remain unnamed.

I don't think the worst of Stars competition would stoop to making this post.

We are sorry you lost your $50.

Go away.

Bots or paid inside pro's - who cares, they still gotta be able to win.

I'm up on every site I play on (MTT's) and thats over a span of 2 years.
