Ever the lower of the semisaints can fly and live for 500 years. They can easily be the best player e.g. in soccer, run the 100 metres in 3 seconds, etc.

Dude.. this obviously can't be true! If it was, then the Saints would not be 1-4! Even if this was true, NO would just end up trading him to the Patriots anyways. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Dude, you are getting seriously sidetracked with this "poker is rigged" biz. Why would a guy on his way to sainthood, no 1 famous person in Greece, the future reverser of all aging and first flying human care about getting sucked out on the river? I know bad beats suck and no one wants to get cheated, but really, go back to doing holy (censored) and learning to fly.


[/ QUOTE ]

I dont care about me getting sucked at online poker, because I have stopped playing since last April. But I want to save other poor people's money. It's called selfless service.

The cheating is not only a casino owner being a player and seeing my hole cards. The cheating is mostly that they fix the cards, i.e. a software modifies the initial RNG outcomes so that when you have a very strong hand someone else has a stronger one, etc.

If I gave less than 90% probability that all or almost all pokerooms cheat the winners (or the more skilled players), then I would continue playing, because when one has an edge and bets small enough, the probability of never going broke and instead his bankroll keep increasing to the infinity, is close to 100% (see "risk of ruin" or "gambler's ruin" probabilities). So if the probability that they dont cheat was 10%, I would have an almost 10% probability to multiply a bankroll unlimited times and 90% to lose it. So you see how much certain I am that all or almost all sites cheat the players: 99%

And yes, I am poor. If I had more than 20,000 euros bankroll, I would be in land based casinos card counting at blackjack. I dont want the money of poor people anyway, that's why I dont want to be an affiliate. If I had won at poker, I would had stop when my bankroll would reach at the 20,000 euros and head up for the landbased casinos.

I know money is worthless and the only real value is to defeat ageing (etc...), but because I am poor I cannot stop thinking about money and have the mood to practice all day long the practices I know. So things are not black and whilte, but complicated regarding what's right and what's wrong. Anyway, I am not proud for this mental slavery to money, and I fight it as much as I can. But most of you are more slaves to it than me. Most people are, because otherwise they wouldn't compromise to be working for pennies for employers they curse in their thoughts.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's closer to 50/50

has the OP's account been hijacked? this is like last week's fight between two scammers who had scammed each other - too good to be true.

this is a post i made on similiar subject and posting it here because I as much as i hate defending the sites, i people accusing them more........for this argumet to be true...that sites cheat, of course there are players that cheat, but accusing sites of complex logirthems that requires a valid reason as to why they would do such a thing. SO FOR THE LAST TIME>>>> until you give a logical argument why when sites like pokerstars make a million dollars in revenues a day why it would ever be in there best interest to cheat and risk their client base...spare us the insanity
