Yes but I hear the competition in 10FPP NL tournaments is getting pretty tough these days! Even though he had cleverly hacked the pokerstars computers, he was probably still outclassed by some bold aggressive play.

'Cause you are trying to pass yourself off as an expert without having any idea of what you're talking about.

The consequence of your post is that muppets read your post, and take it to believe that online poker is rigged, and they stop playing.

This is self-evidently -EV for all of us.

Not only that.

Compare his screen name with others on the table. You'll see that some of them have not sat at a PS tournament with the braniac.

OK guys, lets say I developed a program, 'Amazing RNG Predictor 9000', that picks three random card ranks out of nowhere.

How often will one or more of those cards appear in your hole cards or on board in a Hold'em game?

Correct me if my maths is wrong, but I basically see that you have seven chances to catch one or more of twelve cards. To work out the exact percentage, I'm going to work out the probability of missing seven times in a row then subtract it from one:

40/52 * 39/51 * 38/50 * 37/49 * 36/48 * 35/47 * 34/46
= 13.9%

So, the probability that if you pick three ranks of cards, at least one will appear in your hole cards or on the board is a whopping 86.1%. Hardly surprising, since your 'prediction' involves choosing almost a quarter of the deck.

This fundamental principle is the basis to these programs. They don't interact with the RNG in any way at all. They are, simply put, complete scams.

In other amazing leaps of logic:
Jesus was a black man.
Jesus was a jew.
Therefore, Sammy Davis Jr. was Jesus.
