I've played on-line for over two years. Almost exclusively at Party until Fristal Nacht.

I usually play between 4 and 6 tables at once and have done this for a long time.

I do NOT believe FT is rigged. But I'm starting to wonder if there is a bug in the dealing aspect of their software.

It seems I get dealt the EXACT same cards at very close to the exact same time on different tables (i.e. it's almost always on two tables that were most recently dealt, and usually very close time-wise). I know that this will happen on occassion, but it seems to happen with much greater frequency at FT than it did at Party. It nevery happened often enough on Party to catch my attention.

(For the probablity whizzes how often should one expect this to happen while playing 4 tables?)

Has anyone noticed this?

I had a friend who thought this about party when he switched a year back. Said it happened much more than at UB. So it happens most at full tilt, then party, then UB? Does this mean UB is not rigged? Or that it is rigged to not happen? I'm lost.

Seriously, your mind sees random things and assigns patterns.

Jeebus, people!!

He's not saying FT is rigged, just that the RNG is a little odd.

That is not the same as claiming that it is either rigged so that certain players win or that the RNG is so broken that someone could predict which cards were going to fall.

To the OP: I haven't noticed anything particularly odd at FT, but I wouldn't be surpised if some sites had RNGs that weren't truly random. I would, however, be very suprised if this were exploitable by anyone who didn't have the source code to the software being run on the server (not just on the client side).

Kurt: You are right. I'm going to post the question in the abstract over there. (I think the probabilities are a little more complicated than they appear.)

Poppa: Thanks. You understand. FWIW I see NO way this would be exploitable, and I fully understand that this may just be a "mind set" error. That's why I posted; to see if anyone had a similar experience. So far, it doesn't look that way, but this thread got buried by "tin foil" posts pretty quickly...

I noticed that when I run to the bathroom, I get dealt pocket Aces.

I should really turn off the webcam.

Nut peddlers are still doing fine. I have a collection of stats on 6max NL players with VPIPs under 10 who are still large winners. People never learn.
