Default Re: Organizing a project to determine which sites are legit or rigged

how about - open the source code ? let you compile the source code yourself ... and have a 3'rd party company check the server side of the software....???
and have the clients decide which company will check it ...

The source code for the program wouldn’t really do you much good, you already know what you need to know about the program on your computer, which is that it uses port 465 which is the same port most servers use for SSLs.

The more important question is what there servers use for a RNG. Such as Full Tilt using what they call a TRNG, as apposed to other sites using a PRNG.

Other important information would be “When dose the server relay my hole cards to my competitors system?”

A fear would be if the server was programmed to have the whole game played out, no matter what the situation, such as “Player 1 will get Ad 3s, Player 2 will get 7c 8d, player 3 will get Kd 7s, so on.” Then something like “Flop will be XXX, turn will be X, river will be X, return results, compile results, declare winner.”

I don’t think that would be the case for any of the sites you might play on. I could almost tell you for a fact that every poker game you play is SSS (Server side scripted) meaning that information is only sent to each players computer as it becomes relevant. Its kinda simple to understand if you have ever programmed anything in ASP, or PHP.

But having an outside party/company examine the programming and giving it an approval would be ideal.

So would other factors such as “How dose this site explore the acclamations of cheating, coddling, botting, and so forth.” Then if after examining like lets say 20 different investigations a month, give them approval if they meet the standards.

Another thing to keep in mind; Once google inc employs somebody to work on there search engine spider bots, or web ranking formula, that person signs a contract stating that they will not work on any other competitors spider bots programming, or website ranking formula.

Dose my poker site have the guy that programmed there RNG sign a contract saying that they wont play on there website, or is the guy that work on there RNG everyday sitting across the high stacks NL cyber table from me?

I don’t know, maybe I’m just tired and my minds getting away from me… but for some reason I’m really getting into this.
