Why all the aciditic passion from people defending on-line poker sites, attacking anyone who might question the integrity of what in some cases are clearly boiler-room operations hq'd in third-world countries? [/ QUOTE ] Can you please let us know which sites these are? We can then research and ensure we don't play at those sites. Thank you for your help!

"I don't need evidence, I have my opinion!" *sigh* I used to hate getting AA and KK in the LHE games I play. If felt like all too often I lost a big huge pot. Now I love it, as it means a big swing is coming (yay variance!), and I have an edge to be the winner in that swing (yay odds!). Instead of getting pissed when AA gets cracked I just enjoy the rolercoaster. [/ QUOTE ] The only time you should hate getting dealt AA is when its dealt to you the last hand of the night and you are already up some (or a lot of) money. Because you are guaranteed to lose it that hand... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Stars is now number one.
This thread is hilarious. It takes irony to new levels. OP posts about Stars being number one due to number of "online is rigged" posters and thread then turns into a long battle with "Stars is rigged" posters. Classic.

Re: Stars is now number one.
I don't think it's inconceivable that some poker site somewhere is rigged, but there's really very little for a poker site to gain and a lot to lose by rigging a site, certainly not for leading sites. Most of the people who make the claim that a particular site is rigged have no evidence to offer except their tiny sample of selectively remembered bad beats, or the belief that they win at B&M casinos but not online. If you want to worry about being cheated, worry about collusion. That is a lot more likely way to be losing to a dishonest game. All tha sites claim they try to prevent collusion, and I'm sure that most do, but there's no way they can catch everybody. The poker sites are making money off the rake. If somebody wants to put forward some real statistical evidence, with a large enough sample size to show significance, rather than "It just doesn't seem random to me", or "I always lose with big pocket pairs", I would be a lot more inclined to take it seriously.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] The clearest indicator of the leading poker room is the one most named by the "online poker is rigged" donktards. [/ QUOTE ] I could not agree more to an online post....as it seems the more "donktards" are screaming about the site being fixed, thats when you are in the right place, just sit back and become the rake. [/ QUOTE ] I was one of those "donktards" calling out online poker so just check my SharkScope stats on PokerStars (same username) and realize you are wrong again. BTW you should have seen my stats a before it started not allowing me to win ANY 80-20 (80% for me) all ins. I'm 0 for my last 7 with an 80% chance going into the all in. NOT RIGGED HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA. Do you know what the statistical odds are for that? Just to show you an example....try flipping a coin (50%) and have it land on one side seven times in a row. Nevermind the fact that I had 80% chance, not 50%. [/ QUOTE ] Roulette...bet on red.....double anytime you lose.....no way you lose 7 times in a row! you are going to be rich!!!! shhhh dont tell anyone the secret

I mean think about it. Let's say you bet $50 each time, and double every time you win. You will likely end up rich! But let's look at the worst case scenario: you lost all of the first 6 bets. The odds of losing all seven are 0.78%, so it will almost never happen. 99.22% chance you double your money to $100, and that's the worst case scenario! There's a good chance you get rich in the process! Roulette is easy. Edited to add that I have had better luck with black rather than red. Trust me, bet on black, not red. Its way better.
