September \"online poker is rigged\" thread
 

Thought it might cut down on clutter if we kept all discussion of "online poker is rigged", "site xxx is rigged", etc in one omnibus thread.


Also, Full Tilt is clearly rigged.

Didn't win as much as I needed to pay my rent. PokerStars is rigged.

In last night's EPT webcast Lee Jones stated that the boomswitch at Stars was broken and they could not find a boomswitch repairman.

The doomswitch, on the other hand, appears to be in full working order.

This might explain your results.

I signed up to FTP last week and holy crap I never seen such swings in my life.

Seriously, it's rigged. Yes, I've cashed out.

Re: September \"online poker is rigged\" thread

Re: September \"online poker is rigged\" thread
 

I played live last week and had AA against a fish's KK. The monkey wouldn't get it and after a PF raising battle we were all in.
He hit quads in the flop. That home game is rigged. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

PS. And yes, Stars is totally infested by nits. Pitty, it used to be a nice place to play...

People who think Party is rigged are thinking waaay too small.

Party, rigged? It doesn't need to be. Poker is rigged. Life is rigged. Math is rigged. Randomness itself is a conspiracy cooked up by God to squeeze the maximum amount of pain and suffering out of his little flock of toy souls.

Yes there's a conspiracy, yes it involves Party, but only to the degree that it involves every other atom in the universe, which are all somehow magically lined up to produce, in the recursive awareness of human consciousness, the most exquisitely complex and fragile work of art and engineering conceivable and then, simultaneously, dump into this miracle an infinity of foul excrement - the 5 horsemen of BBV: ignorance, addiction, superstition, anger, and greed, and then ultimately pulverize it into a smoking heap of dead, oblivous, meaningless matter - BUSTO.

Poker is just one tentacle of the universal conspiracy called Entropy. But if we try very, very hard, we can make the leap from being one of its oblivious patsies to being one of its boot-licking junior functionaries.

So, shhhhhhh...

Around 15 one outers last night on Tilt, rigged for sure. Might never go back. Thoughts on Absolute?

I seriously was not kidding. I will post some but I am not going to look through my hand histories for all the hands. I kept an estimated tally of how many occured...

Note: Not all were actually "one outers" where villians caught the only card to beat me, although most were. Some of my tally included when the case card hit on the board.

Re: September \"online poker is rigged\" thread
 

Holy crap. You're talking Omaha? Doesn't this kind of stuff happen practically all the time in that game?

Also, if I'm reading the hand correctly then there were also three T outs for a split-pot.

Re: September \"online poker is rigged\" thread
 

I watched this one. They got it allin on the flop.
