It's where you are.

So, for example, if you were in Mönchengladbach, that would be your location.

I know English isn't your first language so I hope you won't mind me pointing this out to you but 'm8' is txtspk for 'mate', not 'might'.

Hope that may be of some assistance to you.

Well, you're wrong, obviously.

That doesn't make you stupid.

We rely on other things in your posts to form that impression.

Probably not but you might as well be right as wrong, eh?

I see you've posted in this several times since your claims were proved false and you haven't addressed this yet. Why not?
Where is the prove that its false?

This sample is mostly low stakes, all holdem. Includes all seen flops turns and rivers.



Players tend to see flops when they hold high cards, so low cards show up on the board more often due to card removal. The opposite of your claim.

When stats guys with actual data go head to head against people who only remember their last couple of bad beats - funny things happen.

Maybe aces fall more in the $3 sit and gos he plays...

They could check their own hand history and it will show the same uniform board card distribution. The sample doesn't even have to be very large to smooth out because there are only 13 ranks. Fifty thousand or so boards will show a very even distribution, and 5000 boards will be even to within about +/- 1% per rank . But of course it's a lot easier to say the board is skewed if you don't bother to check any real data.

not sure how this works in canada, but usually when you make claims that someone´s product is flawed/manipulated with fraudulent intent, you´re the one who has to prove they are true. the more your statement can potentially hurt the other party´s business, the more important it is to not make it without actual evidence.

there are countries where doing what you do can even lead to criminal charges (against you). even if thats probably not gonna happen to you, its a strong indication that such behaviour is viewed as unacceptable by many people. so that question of yours really makes you look like an *******.

I have to admit I never find this anti-riggedologist argument to be particularly effective. I do not think any of the sites care one bit what fringe players who could not win think when it is all standard paranoid conspiracy nonsense. They probably find it amusing.

Also, public figures are pretty much public domain in a way in terms of what is said about them, which is part of the price of being a public figure, and most accept that to be part of the territory as long as it remains relatively harmless (which pretty much all posts here have followed - even the weird mafia/entropy stuff).

Nobody ever expects a riggedologist to prove anything, because they never have actual proof. The fun is in the banter.
