Riggie claims have been rejected because they are fundamentally nonsensical. Those that don't fall in this category are normally met with a request for some kind of evidence of the claim (not comprehensive proof of rigging, just confirmation that it isn't bias, lies or a mistake).

What reponse would you like to see instead? Your post above gives the impression that 'shills' are stating that there is 0% chance of any rigging and illogically attacking any posts to the contrary when this clearly isn't the case.

Nobody is 'rejecting stats that might suggest' rigging, they are asking for stats that might suggest rigging.

Sadly enough, this might be true. The U.S. govt. is a shady bunch themselves. I will give it a try though just in case. Who knows, they might implement a RNG without extra software to manipulate the deal.
If it becomes obvious that this is not the case, and the same events start happening like now, (money moved from older players with profit to newer players to create as many rebuys as possible, etc), time to give it up for good.

I am an attorney who practiced law for 10 years. While I did not concentrate on litigation, I took part in a few trials on contract and corporate issues. You clearly do not understand the US judicial system. One case was over a guarantee of a bank loan in which the bank admitted that another co-guarantor paid the loan in full. And still the bank was suing the defendant-guarantor for the loan balance. The trail judge still refused to dismiss the bank's case, but the bank never took it to trial.

Look at the cases on whether poker is a game of skill or chance. Most US states have laws that define a game to be unlawful gambling if it is predominated by chance over skill. The PPA has litigated several cases claiming that poker room operators were not engaged in illegal gambling because poker is a game predominated by skill. In each case, expert statisticians have testified with statistics that poker results are largely determined by the skill of the players.

However, the prosecution has presented witnesses that basically testified about bad beats and that in any one hand an unlucky card can determine the results. The PPA and defense witnesses have countered that 75% of the hands do not reach showdown and are decided by player decisions (skill) not the turn of the cards.

Under your thinking, the judge in these cases would rule for the defense, poker room operator, and dismiss the case all the time. In fact, the PPA has lost more cases than it has won. In one case, the jury did rule in their favor, but the state's supreme court ruled that poker is so clearly a game of chance and illegal gambling that the trial judge erred in permitting the jury to decide the issue. The defense prevailed in one case which is still under appeal. In other cases, the judge ruled that poker is illegal gambling or the jury did; despite the statistical evidence. The basis was that poker is predominated by chance because in any one hand an unlucky card can determine the winner and deliver a bad beat to the loser despite his skill.

The sites have never presented real stats to show that their deal of the cards is fair and random. The all in analysis do not show prove this and are easily refutable. Even the authors of these analysis will admit that they are not complete hand history studies.

In fact, oral testimony by witnesses like in my previous posts would be difficult to impeach, especially if the bad luck streak was shown on a program like PT3 or HEM. Sure, the witness would admit that it could be variance, but if he then testified that he has never experienced such bad luck streaks when playing live poker, this would be difficult to counter. The site had better have a real auditor with a real audit of actual hand histories to support its side. The auditor had better testify that he audited all hand histories over a certain time with all the hole cards revealed in each hand and explain his audit and statistical methods.

Truthfully, I am trying to show the incompetence and randomness of the US legal system. I am also trying to show that anecotal evidence is worthwhile if it comes from a credible source. And IMO, lots of anecotal evidence deserves some consideration. But if you want to keep your minds totally closed to the possibility that one or more sites rig their deal of the cards fine. But you can't claim that you are more open-minded than BR or TPTk27 about the issue because you are not.
If you think youre going to get monteroy, wiki, ocatop or any of these other goons to concede with these well written articles, it wont happen.
But dont stop! This is what real players on here (which is very few) need to read. The truth should prevail sooner or later.

Realize that the EV tools in many of these programs are not perfect for post flop situations as they measure it on the odds from the time of the all-ins regardless of how many chips are bet at that time.

MY EV graphs are completely all over the place in SnGs because against the mega donks when I want to have fun I will go all in except a single chip (for one of us) pre-flop or on the flop, and then try to use "fold equity" on the turn by betting my single chip (have gotten a fold).

Imagine if 5399 chips goes in preflop with AA vs 55, but the last chip goes all in on the turn card of a 5 when the donk bets his last chip at that time. Even though 99.999% of the chips went in when I way ahead, the last chip on the turn went in when he was a 95/5 favorite so the expected equity of the hand will be much higher for him than it was in reality.

You are not a xenophobe or a crazed "everything is rigged against everyone all the time" kind of guy, so why not so the research I suggest and email the sites as I suggest and post the results. That would be interesting to read and might educate some of these other riggies how to actually properly research their beliefs for a change.
Monteroy, you are confusing all in EV with SECT. SECT is a third party program for HEM that tells you your expected winnings for all your showdown hands in which the opponent hole cards are known. It also measures actual showdown winnings which HEM does. I have posted my results in previous posts.

In 2008, I won about $1.03 in actual showdown winnings for every expected showdown $1.00; maybe somewhat lucky. But in 2009, it dropped to .93 for every expected $1.00 in winnings and never exceeded .95 until Black Friday when I stopped keeping records due to the fact that I am a US citizen and basically stopped playing after Black Friday. The responses to my previous posts were that it was all due to better opponents. But were the opponents that much better in 2009 than 2008?

I have posted other stats with similar responses. The most recent post you can find today on TPTK results which I ran from my HEM to test TPTK27's comment about TPTK versus TPWK. My experience is that from 2008 to 2011, my winnings decreased on every type of decent flopped hand. I don't know why for sure; it could have been better opponents. But it could have been some sort of post-flop odds adjustment by the sites where I played; mostly Cereus and PS.

I do know that my feeling (and review of hand histories) tells me that the bad beats that I experienced, even 2-5 outs after the flop, substantially increased in 2009 and later years. So did the ones in my favor, but fold more hands in which I feel that I am such a dog than many of my opponents. In fact, most of the time that I won due to a 2-5 bad beat luck out was due to my opponent slow playing his better hand on the flop. But I rarely slow play so most of my similar bad beats were in hands in which my opponent would call a bet larger than half the flop and then out draw me.

Before Black Friday, I was about the employ the services of a coach to review my hand histories to see what he thought and to see if I had any major leaks; not just not stealing enough but calling down too much etc.
Then Black Friday hit and the whole affair became pointless.

The only logical reason to fold your hand is that the big stack is all-in before you enter the pot and you are at the bubble with your last 200. Sounds more important to you to not make the call and limp into the money.... the beat sucks.

Have you ever played a WSOP event? Yes or no?

If you posted them in this thread you have to know they get lost in all the noise and clutter.

Create a thread in the stats forum or in the Holdem Manager forums on this topic and you will actually get genuine helpful advice that will point out any errors you might have done in interpreting the data.

I am confused why you are not doing that, and instead debating in this silly thread. I am pretty sure you are not the type of guy that needs emotional support from blatantdude, and simply posting here puts you in the same category as guys like him by default. You really want that?

Start a separate thread in a different forum and link it here.


Regarding all of the opther items you posted, th emain issue I have with your theory are the following:

- I do not see how the site makes any money from it

- I do not see how the sites keep this all a secret, even the ones that shut down

- I think a rig like yours that is based on such a complex mixture of human play decisions is by definition a completely impractical one for a huge number of players if a site is going to do a rig. A rig does have to be relatively simple (ie: super user) otherwise it only really works if the riggie is the center of the poker universe.


If you want to have a serious discussion on this then let us know where you start the new thread. If you want guys like blatant to quote you and say that every thing you say is completely true (regardless of what you say) then stick here or do that once in a while for amusement. I hope you will choose the former, but I understand the entertainment value of the latter as well.

Anyone can look up your charming posting history to see exactly what you are. You can live in denial all you like on the topic and feel free to talk about the "Mohawks" all day long while telling yourself that you are not a racist. That is in the rare times you are not watching TV or flipping burgers or destroying your meager possessions.

You have never played in the WSOP and I have played in the WSOP. I hope that answers your original question earlier today about why you never saw me at the WSOP!

If you want to believe I have not played at the WSOP by this point that is totally fine with me and quite comical as well given the full conversation and all the available information on that topic.

I have news for you - playing in a WSOP event is not that big a deal. Ask your boss for a 25 cents an hour raise the next time you see him.

Every prop bet I offer I have a 100% chance to win. Other than the ones I have offered in this thread in my quest to sucker in at least one riggie/douche, I have yet to make a prop bet outside it ever in real life.

I hate prop bets (other than the 100/0 bets I offer here for entertainment) and gambling bores the hell out of me, and I refuse every prop bet for the sake of betting when offered to me (very few bother to offer them anymore).

This is where you can reverse polarity and call me a mega nit again that waits for AA if you are not too distracted by whatever TV show you are watching.

P.S. Thanks for the breath of fresh air in this thread, it actually made it fun to post here again for a while. Hopefully you will visit some more to liven up the current riggie duds.

The tax evasion implication said to the guy who is the most anal that exists about documenting every penny and recording and keeping beyond detailed records of everything.

Sorry to disappoint you, but the business is run in a completely professional way, and my taxes are properly prepared by my accountant every year with every source of revenue documented and every related expense broken down.

You managed to be completely wrong yet again. Well done.


The Russ Hamilton reference made me chuckle. Can you go a single post without being such a silly poker fanboy and dropping poker celeb names everywhere?

Why don't you go watch some more TV, maybe a poker show is on.

You have to keep records with your business because you are operating in an atmosphere that can track it down. Your winnings on offshore sites is different. You are telling me you reported that? I seriously doubt it.

What a surprise a tax dodger takes a sympathetic view on a person who used the offshore system to conspire and and steal from his peers all the time knowing none of them could do a single thing about it.

No wonder you are so loyal to the KGC. That is of course till you start playing US sites. Or you may not since then there will be a paper trail of the taxes you refuse to pay when you win. So I assume you will use your Canadian residency to play offshore. May be a bit lonely though.

As it happens, TPTK is a roughly a break-even showdown hand for me. On the nitfest that is PokerStars, it loses money. On 888 it profits.
Are you suggesting that information like this is evidence of one or other site being rigged?

Don't worry, these back and forths generally last for a day or so before he runs away for a few months to participate in the threads about poker celebrities . He hates everything and everyone (just look at his posting history), and I enjoy messing with the heads of people like that, because that is exactly what they deserve.

By tomorrow it will be back to normal with riggies posting mangled walls of texts and blatantdude quoting them and giving full support for their clear message, and shills making fun of blatantdude. That will certainly be fun.



Anyway, to conclude today's festivities...

I keep track of net winning and losing every day, and I have those records for the past 8 years, both for poker and for every online casino bonus I ever completed.

You want to know exactly to the penny how much I made completing a promotion on Aztec Poker on PSO over half a decade ago I can tell you that broken down on a day by day basis.

I report every single penny as every single transaction to and from the sites are documented and reported.

I appreciate your need to find any personal attack that can work because I have been considerably more successful in this industry than you will ever be, but this one you are so off the mark that it is actually pathetic.

Do you pay taxes if you happen to win in any given year?

So this tax dodger bit is tour next routine (Directed at a guy with detailed daily reports for 8 years in this industry) after the failed nitty AA player then insane degen routes? Sure, why not, you seem to like being as wrong as possible.

Case in point, how you interpreted my Russ Hamilton comment. Anyone who has a basic understanding of the English language knows I did not "support" him, rather I found it amusing that every single post of yours has to include some outdated poker celebrity in it.

Feel free to find my post where I was loyal to them. I do like asking you your opinions about them because that opens up your racist side for the world to see, but that has nothing to do with supporting the organization.

You know this and anyone can read it in our conversation.

No idea what you are even talking about. If I can play there, and I do play there I will keep my standard anal daily log of the results there. Same with all of the players we back there. Every penny will be reported as always, and every expense will be documented as always.

You do the same on your play, right?


I do appreciate you are desperate to find some angle of personal attack that can work after being my bitch for years, but the tax evasion thing is actually the absolutely worst one you can pick given my history of being insanely detailed about everything in every business I have owned.

No shock, you tend to always be wrong.

For what it is worth, I do hope you get your $25 bankroll back on Tilt, because that will mean that people I know who are real players will get theirs as well.

All the best.

Evidence or GTFO.
Sites use a variety of software and random number generators. The sites are competing against each other, not colluding together.
You've really got to stop posting complete fabrications. When you lie so often, no one will believe anything you say.

Since you dont have a clue, ill explain. The same software is used in ADDITION to the RNG to manipulate the deal. All the sites use the same software. Thats why the results are the same for every site.
Being so ignorant really doesnt make you look very bright.
