How would proving he played prove he didn't work for a poker site? Are riggies capable of any logic at all?

Not him anyway. He can't even figure out the 2 second way of potentially figuring out if someone plays. And you don't even need to leave the site!

Playing poker would be a key job requirement for a shill. Just as being incapable of logic is the key criterion for being a riggie.

There is a reason I have been answering everyone except you lately (until now). You are the best at turning and twisting every argument so it wont look like what it orginically were. I cant even define what you are doing, but it is unlike anything I have ever seen from someone trying to tell another they are wrong. You also write very good and advanced English together with all the techniques you use so its hard for me to even know what you are saying. When average ignorant people read your post they might even agree with your case just because it seems well written and inteligent.

While wiki and monteroy sucked quite hard and left the thread, you are by far the best defender of a case that doesnt have a good argument and must rely on good writers.

I didnt think this answer made much sense to my question.

It only will if you think implementing any forms of patterns will always show up in analysis. But I dont think so.

What about new player boomswitch and boomswitch for recreational and bad. How will that show up in an analysis?

The initial scenario I presented for you were a game with extreme benefitial patterns. Go back and check.

And with variance you can have patterns that can be quite extreme which would fall within posabilities. It might depend on what we mean by extreme, but at least variance can produce patterns to some degree

I didnt say run bad, I said if you saw patterns. Yes, patterns can and will occur, but if you see it a lot and you also know its benefitial for the site that those patterns occur, you should be suspicious.

What you are basically saying is that as long something is mathemathically reasonable you should never be suspicous.

And its not because I "simply dont trust the site" that I think its rigged. When I started playing poker there were nowhere in my mind that it could be rigged. But when I saw the same types of patterns again and again on many sites I gradually changed my opinion. But I think I was quite stubborn at first. Probably because I didnt understand why they would fix the deck in the first place.

I read it but it doesnt disprove anything. It doesnt even give a good argument for "why not". You basically just shreds everyones post into pieces and start attacking it where you think its weakest.

If you are not paid and still do this so much and defend OLP so hard you have no life and no moral. Even if you are paid you dont have moral obviously.

Do you think its werid that people will think you are a shill when you come here so much and write like you do? It does makes sense that we think so, doesnt it?

Awww Cakie. Are you still being bullied in the playground? Maybe if you tell your mommy she'll go talk to the principle and they'll tell the other boy to stop. Remember: just because you are frustrated at those who beat you up, doesn't mean you should go and try and beat other people up.

You'll understand better when you're older. I know its all confusing right now.

Easyonkemp,
If you are not paid and still do this so much and attack OLP with no evidence so hard you have no life and no moral. Even if you are paid you dont have moral obviously.

You see your lack of logic works both ways. You can't criticise someone spending time here "defending" for no reason when you are spending time here "attacking" for no reason.

I know you will not get that because it doesn't fit your pattern.

Promised myself not to post here again but this dude tilts me with his flawed logic

Nobody would put so much effort into defending these scam sites as they do. Small chance they are extremely ignorant to the obvious deal manipulation, but I really doubt it. Also think they might have only played a few hands online or none at all.
Keep going if you want, but its only going to end in frustration. You, me, and many others know these sites are not on the up and up, so just leave it at that.
Easyonkemp, read this again. Forgot to mention that j9 idiot as part of this crowd. Its really better not to argue with these site promoters as, like you were talking about, they use intelligent sounding lies which is used to throw off newer people looking for the truth. Anybody with half a brain whos played for awhile knows the deal is manipulated and should stay away from it. Might as well leave it at that.

Just when I thought cake had reached the nadir of his puerile oafishness he comes through again to set a new record in asinine stupidity.

Still, like a lot of strutting, hormonal, 13 year olds at least he's good for a laugh.

I suppose he likes to come here and play the big man when he's feeling bad because his little sister beat him up again.

I see you are avoiding the issue once again.

How do you know the deal is manipulated? You must have some evidence for it, right? So what is it?

I don't twist what you are saying, I simply explain why what you are saying is completely illogical. You tell yourself that I have twisted everything in order to explain that feeling you get when you almost realise that what you have said makes no sense, rather than acknowledging and understanding my response.

You go back and check. OK, I'll do it for you:

Sure, I could be an ignorant follower and say: "Hey, if that could be variance, then it IS variance?"

Yeah, if the sites wouldnt have any interest in rigging the deal. But they do.

Let me ask you, if you played a game and saw an extreme pattern that just continued forever. Would you think the game was random until the pattern eventually would exceed variance probabilites? And you also knew that the pattern happening was good for the creators of the game.

In summary you asked about extreme patterns, I suggested that If I had seen extreme patterns I could explain what they were and analyse them, you then asked what would I think if it was "within possibilities" when analysed and I explained that if it was within possibilites it wouldn't be an extreme pattern. Simple.

So what are these "extreme patterns" that are "extremely suspiscious" that you see whilst playing which don't show up in the hand histories which contain all the information that you had whilst playing (except the timing)?

PS: The timing issue is something you lot should play with more often. Have a chat amongst yourselves and see what you can come up with

Sure can understand you not liking what easyonkemp says. He speaks the truth about the scam that is online poker, where you site promoters just have to bash the truth when someone points out the obvious manipulation of the deal.

Some of the posters actually believe that statistics itself is a conspiracy to cover up "the truth". A century ago, these people would have explained everything they couldn't understand (which is quite a lot) with magic, or fairies. Nowadays they have conspiracy theories.

Remember though that these are the unrelenting fish - the whales who are immune to education and reason, will never improve, and who will happily tilt off all their chips on a long shot to satisfy their expectation of being hard done by. And we should love them for that.
