"Poker is Rigged" story (Humourous and pitiful)

[pipster]

I was heading out last night to play in a local bar donkfest tourney, mainly to drink, flirt with the waitresses, and blow off some steam at a 0 buy-in tourney.

Signup is at 6:30 and play starts at 7:30 so I bring my laptop, order a nice NY Strip steak, and fire up 4 tables of Empire... While I am playing a nice fellow walks up and watches and starts chatting about online poker, etc.

He tells me that he played on Pacific once and made 700 dollars in a few days and then a few weeks later lost all of it about as fast. So he talked to a friend of his who owns a casino in Puerto Rico and runs an online site about his "misfortune". His friend told him it was no surpise, because his casino learns the patterns of the players and then puts in fictious players who get dealt the exact cards to take all their money.

So he told the casino owner that this doesn't sound possible. As he knows a guy who won 90K playing online and had a 48K Lexus to prove it. And the Casino Owner said he was obviously lying... because noone can win at online poker. I showed him my neteller account and my balance on empire, etc... but he just walked off shaking his head mumbling about how my time was coming to lose all that.

Just freaking sad how people believe stuff like that...
