Re: Organizing a project to determine which sites are legit or rigged
[ QUOTE ]
In your previous post you said it was to keep fish from going bust and thus maintain more tables. I have seen other people claim it is to increase rake. Neither of those make much sense for a major site.

By keeping fish from going bust you automatically increase the rake. You could have a huge increase in revenue by keeping a fish playing 2 or 3 times longer instead of losing all his money in no time to a pro. This is a FACT. The belief that a site is or is not engaging in this is an OPINION. Whatever you believe yourself can't deny it is a fact that they would be/are making way more money if this balancing was present in their software, which it could be, than if it wasn't.

The extra revenue is simply not worth it to a major site. We are talking about over $400M in profit a year. Keeping fish around longer would increase that by less then 5%. No one risks $400M to make an extra 5%.
Esp since the sites know how easy it is to detect. I have no vested interest in proving sites are rigged but if I was a B&M casino owner who felt I was losing revenue I could hire an audit firm to test the fairness and destroy the industry. The lack of such a report is indicative that the B&Ms know the sites are not rigged.
