Default Re: Pokerstars Is Likely Not Rigged

Sorry, but I must suggest you are overly optomistic. I could easily envision a situation where cheats could enter into the software and corporate life simply goes on.

At Party, for instance, it's possible that only one person has ever coded the card distribution section at the site's begining. That person is a principal. Once it's compiled no one out of the loop can inspect his work.

found that the probabilities that resulted in the wins/losses of these hands were in fact 21.9% in difference then in actual probable odds.

Please post the data and conclusions. I'd like to know what this means and how it was calulated.

Exactly, just asking for the same in return.

Plus, I really want to know what ". . . the probabilities that resulted in the wins/losses of these hands were in fact 21.9% in difference then in actual probable odds" means.

arbertrate? Huh? I can't even figure out what word you thought you were typing here.

the next time you ask yourself how did I just lose with AA to 23 os all in preflop, remember this post.

I think it would be more useful to remember that I was roughly a 7 to 1 favorite (87.214% probability of winning) but that 7 to 1 long shots do sometimes hit. Have you ever seen someone roll a five at the craps table? That's an 8 to 1 long shot, but it happens (11.1% of the time)often enough that nobody considers rolling a five to be weird, extraordinary, or evidence that the dice are rigged. Further I think it would be useful to remember who the player is; as he is someone whose presence at my table, I should encourage if not celebrate.

Heck, AA hit about a 220:1 shot just getting the AA.

Yes, but how many licks does it take to reach the center of a tootsie roll pop?

274

Was I really the only one to spend 2 hours trying this as a kid?
