^^If I accepted my gut feeling as evidence I wouldn't be reading everyone else's opinions. 5thstreethog if my gut feeling told me you were a hater, is that wrong?
If you choose a 50k hand sample where dealt ppaa every single hand is that enough evidence? If the 50k hand sample is perfectly normal is that conclusive proof that it is not rigged? If it is 50 million hands and is off by .1% as to how many times super premium holdings are dealt preflop is that enough proof? What if you take 5 billion hands and it is exactly on par? But than you take the next 5 billion hands and add that to the first 5 billion and again the numbers are distorted based on what the percentages should be??!?! Who said I was reading the entire thread at once?
I want to see proof that "The reality is that it is very easy to determine whether something is extremely out the the norm statistically and it doesnt take a imaginary sum of hands to do it." Bust out some numbers.
Accusing me of being very masochistic indicates you aren't as smart as I thought you were. 6407 posts and hating harder than the 50-or-less-posters. I am not masochistic.

If there is anything I learned from the first 40 pages, I only identify with a handful of "riggies"(people who think it possibly could be rigged) out of hundreds.
For someone who has problems with my words I sure wish you would choose yours more carefully as it is hard to rebut opaque ramblings.
Bobo, sorry for the nonedits.

Absolutely, completely, and indisputably false.
Why is that false? I have read that there are way over a trillion ways that all of the cards could be arranged in a single 9 handed omaha high hand. If that is true (which I'm not sure that it is, but I believe it is close) then I would assume(with a reasonable margin of safety) that there simply haven't been enough hands in the history of online poker to truly see if everything has happened as often as it should by calculated percentages.... 52x51x50x49x48x47....etc. My calculator won't go that high lol.
This is such a fun debate.
