So is it just rigged against you or AA in general? What exactly would they be rigging it towards and why?

All right, here goes, I'm going to get my ass handed to me for saying this but I have finally come up with a plausible explanation(if it is indeed happening) for letting the underdog hand win more than it should.

Entertainment Value. Two guys are in a hand and are all-in and 7 others have folded and are bored waiting for the next hand. So these incredible draw outs occur and it's entertaining as hell to watch. If the site is entertaining more people will be drawn to it and their business will grow.

Anybody buying this? Nope, didn't think so. Don't scorch me too bad.

Homes,

I did not want to get involved in this thread, because I feel I sound like an imbecile on this subject.

Yet here I am, involved.

Anyway, Chief, I must admit to agreeing with you on this. It's Suckout Central, and I don't know why.

I will go on record as saying that I am virtually positive (so to speak) that the RNG just isn't R.

In closing, bud, I just wanted you to know that there is someone else out there who is not inclined to poo-poo this sort of theory.

Did I tell you about my space alien encounters on Deeley Plaza 40 years ago?

Where's your statistics to back it up? How come every time people make claims like this, they don't give any evidence?

I feel this post is missing a "pal" and a "guy"

if by 'routinely' you mean that those with about a 10% chance of winning are actually hitting their hands about 10% of the time then i agree with you.

I feel it could also use an Hombre and a Muchacho.
