I actually did this to someone the other day on JokerStars after not playing there for like a month. It was so obvious I was on a boomswitch. I literally floped a set or made a big hand every time for a couple of hours and out of the 4 tourneys I played I was. 27th out of 360. 11th out of 90. 7th out of 90 and 12th out of 90. Seriously what are the odds of making the money in all 4 tourneys consecutively. TY for the boomswitch PS I ll be back next month.

Mine was 77 vs KK

K 7 J all in on flop

Turn x

River 7.

JJ

Flop KJ5

Looks good right...not

vs aq now

$100 river 10, ten ten ten ten

I saw that few times .. Not exactly the same hand, but similar. Set vs gutshot + 2 overs. And i think that you will see that more than one time in your poker career . I had a downswing of 2 motnhs or so now. It looks like i do better now. And i know how all that bst feels . Past 2 months my EV was growing, but my wining graph keeped in the same position. It was so brutal.

JJ vs. AQ - 54%/46% preflop (virtual coin flip).
After the straight draw flopped AQ is 15% to win, or 33% to win if he also had a flush draw.

So at worst you lost a 1 in 6.5. If the money went in preflop then you lost a coinflip.

Cue violins.

Move up to $500/$1K and play with folks who would never call two all-ins with T9s one seat from the bubble. You won't win, but you won't have that happen either. But you should welcome players like that, not avoid them.

I'm sorry I just don't have any sympathy for your non-bad-beat story.
Woa...uhh who said I was looking for sympathy? I was a coin flip with the QQ first of all, second of all I got all in with the worst hand and lost? AK, QQ, 910(b/c it's suited he has extra 2-4 percent? correct?) of all those hands you pick ak as the worst hand? Exactly my point, in a normal poker environment you would embrace such loose, donkey play. Appearantly there is something wrong. I got all in with a coin flip situation vs QQ, what justifies the 910? If the QQ would of beat me, you think I'd come here and post the hand history or think online poker is rigged? It's how I keep getting beat over and over under "odd" circumstances.

Spade? Do you even play poker? What the hell is wrong with you? I think I've just processed what you tried to claim? AK, vs QQ vs 910(Sooooottttteeeed!) 3 handed all in. AK is the worst hand, I'm a donkey for going all in vs QQ and 910, I should of lost to the QQ and when I didn't, thank god the 910 was there to deal me justice for playing like a mule. I think you've just been deamed uncredible and dellusional.

If you're not looking for sympathy, what are you looking for? People to say "yeah man its so rigged" presumably but I dont understand why this would make you feel any better if you truly believe it is rigged. The only thing that would make you feel better is to stop playing or provide proof (and when i say "proof", all i really mean is any meaningful data whatsoever rather than selected hands that suit your ranting)


What "justifies" the T9? Any number of things, you tell me. Are you really bad? Is he really bad? What range of hands do you think he should have been putting you on? What range of hands should he have been putting the other guy on? What range of hands might he think you put him on after he called the original raise? Is he on tilt? Has he got to take a dump? Is he employed by the site?

Uh, this isn't day 1 of this thread? Please refer back to page one.
And what the hell does that have to do with anything? Some dumbass questions? Regaurdless computers don't solve all of our problems, our minds created the computers and the software....identifying problems and solving them is what humans do best (or rigtards....)

You and the QQ were all in first, before the T9 called and whether he came in or not. You were a 57/43 underdog to the QQ, which is bit outside of what most people call a coin flip (generally up to 5%-7% edge instead of 14% edge). Yes, I know some people always call 2 overcards vs a pair a "coin flip" but the other point isn't debatable.

You explained on page 1 why you bothered to post those meaningless hands all this time later? I must go and check...

You asked what "justified" the T9 which i assume meant you didnt understand why he called and wanted somebody to explain it to you. Well, i gave you a list of "dumbass" questions to help you realise there are plenty of reasons he may have called.

If i have misunderstood what the hell you meant it's because you rigtards make no sense as you dont really know what you are saying or why you saying it.

You ask "what the hell does that have to do with anything?". Well, if you understand that players make bad calls all the time and will sometimes win when they do, you might realise that your question would be a good reply to every single hand you post in isolation.

So not zero then? Is this supposed to prove the riggedness? Educate us on hand value? Prove what a bad call it was?

That was a response to an idiot just like yourself, no wonder you couldn't relate. Again trying reading what's going on in the thread before you post something stupid again please. I'm curious as to what the readers that don't post anything think?

What do you get for calling anyone who disagrees with you a shill? And now we're 2+2 shills? I thought we were shills for the poker sites?

Where did you explain what your point was with posting the odds on that hand? Are we all supposed to be stunned and amazed that a 1 in 5 chance happened?

I have to admit, though, that this one was funny.

So it might do something like:

Read x = RNG

Suit = x % 4

Read x = RNG

Rank = x % 13

(% is the modulus operator).

It now has a random card suit and rank in the appropriate variables and must check that that card has not already been used from the logical deck if it has it must repeat the process, if not the hand is marked as used in the current deck and 'dealt'.
This seems extremely inefficient to me. Why not simply set up an array containing the integers 1-52 in order, then use the RNG to shuffle it. No need to have the program "remember" whether a card had been used or not -- just peel them off the shuffled virtual deck, one at a time, as if you're dealing a real deck of cards.
