Default Can Party Poker 4th and 5th street cards be predicted?

So I was just chit chatting while playing a Paradise 0.5/1 table, and in the middle of the conversation one of the guys casually mentions that Party Poker turn and river cards can be easily predicted. He continued to claim that "turn and river cards are rigged to generate action" (i presume to increase rake) and that "this has been discussed extensively on alt rec poker." I figure, if its been discussed on some other board, it must have been discussed on 2+2! So, 2+2, is there any merit to this rumor?

Highly doubtful...at least, i've never seen any valid (and extensive) proof of it. I doubt party even needs to worry about generating more rake than they already do.

ROTFLMAO... The guy is at a fifty cent one dollar game and he has intimate knowledge of the turn and river cards.

yes. it's been debated and, on these forums anyway, is widely considered to be goofy conspiracy theory.

those who think these concepts have merit are typically NOT the most highly respected of the posters.

those who believe in alien-abductions can play internet-poker too.

oh. and if you're REALLY interested i can go ask one of those street-psychics.
i think the $10 investment would be well worth opportunity to know whether or not my gut-shot is going to fill for me.

Yeah. He is exactly right. There is scientific proof of this all over the internet. Let me give you a few links.

I have tons of these sites if you want anymore. I only play on NightOrDay poker because their logarithms and whatnot are the most accurate, and their service is paramount compared to the rest of the sites.

Much more predictable than Party's turn and river cards is the conpiracy theorist's ability to consistantly lose at poker.

I haven't read any replies,but my first response is.

Here is the clue, contained within your own post.

So I was just chit chatting while playing a Paradise 0.5/1 table,

one of the guys casually mentions that Party Poker turn and river cards can be easily predicted.

Now then........ If YOU could easily predict cards at Party, would YOU be playing .5/1 at Paradise?

The amusing thing is that when Paradise was the #1 site, you would hear this conversation at sites other than Paradise saying that the Paradise game was rigged.
