A friend of mine (who poasts here A LOT) had a hand against one of a site's pros the other day.

She opened, he flatted OTB w/77

flop was A 7 X - rainbow, I believe.

she leads, he just calls again.

turn is a 5, she checks, he bets, she shoves

she has A5o and his set holds up.

he didn't hit a miracle river, he was ahead the whole time. now why would they let that happen to one of their players? was she late for work recently? didn't sing "happy birthday" loud enough at an office party?

any wild speculation?

Ah, so even when evidence is easily available, you prefer to just spout random nonsense.

Good to know.

Can you fix those "he" "she" parts, its kind of confusing.

Well, the guy complaining used a lack of skill to get into his situations, but that is not really the point.

The scenarios are quite similar. When something semi strange happens, people notice and assign beliefs to the event even when strange events have to happen as part of any random system.

Frankly, this guy's situation is not even that bizarre, he played 2 hands badly in the same way. All it showed was he does not learn much from his mistakes.

That would be an example of flawed logic and thinking, and it pretty much sums up why you are basically a standard rigtard.




See, now this is interesting. You dismiss another rigged theory even though it is based on the exact same methodology, basically people who have seen something happen a lot and know something is wrong.

Yet you use the same method of gathering "data" and genuinely wonder why people basically say NO NO NO to your theories.

You are entitled to any beliefs you like, my only suggestion to you is that you start using better rigged theory selection. At least choose ones that do not directly contradict other common rigged theories, and choose ones that cannot be easily disproven (ie: the everyone breaks even theory)

Better rigged theory selection will lead to more fun arguments on your side. I suggest starting easy with flush draws hit too much then working up to stuff like deposit/withdraw and new player curses/benefits.

All the best.

they're correct - what, you don't think a girl could be a pro?

Ive Heard people online saying poker is rigged i never paid much attention.
Now my attitude has changed ive gone fron being a BIG winner at low/mid stakes STTs ($10/$20/$50) with an ROI of 23% over the last 2 years to a losing player break even at most,What changed varience no i opened a new account closed other why for screen name change silly i know but i have played 40/80 stts very day for the last 2 mouths on new account and will a hand hold never 95% bad beats in the stts i am now close to quitting.

A freind who i have met through poker forums and playing cash games has told me no matter what hand hes playing he losses only apx 5% of time he opened an account with $100 and now 12 tables 50/1 1/2 2/4 nl.
he tells me he makes himself lose as not to attract attention i have seen his last 5 played hands yesterday at 2/4 as i never belived him true to his word he is goin in on crazy **** ie 75off for buy ins and not losing he is no super user but tells me he thought he was running good at first but now makes thousands.

Make of it what u will but all 100 percent true.is your account selected to be the next internet success story

The super advanced class will cover patterns and timing.

your friend just lost his goldern account, I can tell ya that.

no u

Thats why i posted before that not everyone can win at online poker. Look at durrrr. Many may say that hes a genius or what ever .. But i dont think that its profitable in the long run to go all in with a 6 high flush draws after flop.

rofl

no u!

This comic is so perfect for this thread it's ridiculous.

its maybe a lol but not a rofl

maybe i decide should lol or rofl ?

lough is rigged

Rigtard: OMG, he just hit a 1-outer. That's impossible! It's so low percentage!

Thank you for posting something on topic. I agree I played that hands poorly. That is not at all the point. I felt like gambling in a 4 way pot the first hand and curiosity took over and made me call the second hand. Funny how quickly you guys are trying to derail this improbable event with me "playing bad"

The issue was never me losing a couple dollars on hands I decided to gamble with. I'm a big boy and take my losses well, especially when it's a result of poor play. Honestly I would gladly have paid 40 bucks to have this freak occurrence happen.
You can compare what happened to me with a couple of holdem hands where you won as an underdog but in reality the probabilities are many orders in magnitude difference.
I love how you said I think it is rigged against me. Where did I say such things. All is said was maybe it's not a perfect or truly random system.
Also how am I using unrelated bits of data in any way?
I gave you 2 hands that happened simultaneously where the whole cards were identical for both me and villain. Unrelated? Please....

Got math to prove it? If not, thanks for your time.

so all the newbs here lately signed up 'cause they googled "online poker is rigged" and this is where they landed?

Bump for attention

I was listening a podcast weekly, and reading all kinds of threads magazine etc. But i never registered here (dunno why). But when i was reading this thread, i decided tthat i can express my opinion as well. Then i got invoulved into discussions with pwq or that ever his nickname is and here i am. :-). Anyway... I am posting on other threads as well. And i am having a good time on this thread no matter what u think or what u say :P

I don't think you know what "identical" means.
