You said in the video you think they gave 100K to you but that it was meant for an 888 bot. If the site were cheating, do you really think they just add a ****load of chips to their bots in a freeroll tournament? Get a grip...

Why wouldn't you contact support and ask for them to investigate why the chips were added to your stack? Why wait 2 weeks and make a video instead?

Why is this topic called "onlinepoker and proved deception"?


First: why the generic "onlinepoker"?

Second: what "deception" is being "proved" here, exactly?

lol at the 2:04 mark - (drumroll) oh wonner wonner

nevertheless, an interesting vid of what looks like another Pacific glitch with the paranoia thrown in.

The narrator, das_Goe ended hand 25 where he was the BB with 70246.
After the 5 minute break, at the same table, 2 new players move in on his right.
His chip stack increases by 104976 and he is sat out along with the new players when he should have been the SB.

The new player to his right, toti1940, with 70,677 is the eventual winner (1/790) for $1760.

toti1940 must be a ring player.
Wins that much 2 weeks ago and hasn't played another tournament since.

lol that video is hilarious.

Funny stuff sir.

lol 5 stars

very interesting rainbow warrior.

If you're thinking he's saying, "he must be a house bot since he has not played a tournament since" you are wrong.

I played in a 888 freeroll last night that had rebuys and addons which most of the players did not know about or could not afford.

thats ok but i haved played a few years at 888 and you can believe if i say i knew what if have played :-)

Why don't you just post the email correspondence from the site? If anything it's a glitch in the ****ty software, not blatant cheating. If a site wanted to cheat you, they could do it in such a way you'd never know they were doing it. Instead you've got fools yelling, "wonner wonner. 100K chips..." or, "my KK lost to AK 4 times in a row. It's rigged."

the actually statement of 888:

• Our technical team have reviewed the event, and confirmed the occurrence.
• The issue occurred when a very rare set of scenarios is in place –
1. There is a break in the multi table tournament play, and behind the scenes there is an algorithm in place during the break to re-allocate the seats for all remaining players amongst the tables.
2. During this reallocation, player das_Goe was left technically alone on the table.
3. Due to the algorithm re-allocating places, and the fact that the member was technically alone on the table whilst this occurred, there was an error on that specific table that only affected das_Goe. The system automatically credited the result of virtual rounds to the player left on the table.
4. This is a very rare situation, only possible under a very specific set of circumstances.
• A fix for this has already been developed, and it is currently in the stages of being updated to all of our poker clients. This process is already completed in the majority of our poker clients, and will be completed in all by the end of today (15th Sept).

it is very funny...

Very strange glitch. The official explanation sounds believable, and I hope they fix it.
What I found most amusing is that the OP was given 100,000 extra chips and came here to complain about it!
It's amazing that he didn't go on to win the tourney.

*crosses fingers and hopes 888 gives me 100,000 chips on a 6NL cash table*

What for????

so now that after all these years you finally have proof it's rigged in your favor I assume you will continue playing.
