Let the states make it legal and tax it and regulate it in the U.S. and you wont believe the difference in the game you get..don't bother with your defense of online poker.I heard and read all the different explanations.Oh but I did see the tribe that regulates online poker on 60 minutes and I must say they were very impressive.LOL
Online poker is a complete scam, set up for 1 reason and one reason only, to make lots of money.

Nice post papajoey.

Poor old supperdish.

How you must envy people who have the intelligence to actually take on board logical argument when it's presented to them.

How different to your own poor self who is doomed to continue to believe something with not one shred of proof and, beyond that, hasn't even the wit to walk away from something that he believes is iredeemanbly corrupt but has to hang around losing money at the hands of the 'riggers'.

Rather sad, really.

Still, never mind!

When the truth inevitably comes out about Online Poker and what the sites are really up to qpw Ill be back here and Ill ask you to take back all those statements about being of lower intelligence,******ed,deluded etc.

Online poker sites operate with little or no oversight and is there for one reason to make money. They make much more profit by rigging the software than if they didnt.

If the day comes qpw when OP is outed what will you say then shill?

Even if that day were to come it would not in any way mean that you were not a cretin of the first order.

At the moment there is an excuse for you not finding the slightest hint that there is any rigging of the deal in that, as far as we know, there is none to find.

Imagine how much more stupid you'd look if it turned out there was evidence all along but you'd been too ******ed to spot it.

I'd split my sides laughing.

However, I doubt that day will come as if there is any rigging it seems to be very much in my favour.

In fact, if they are rigging the deals it would seem that they generally favour the good players who have a reasonable grasp of probability maths.

I'll say: "Good grief, supperdish is an even bigger ****** than I thought because the evidence was there all along and the daft buffoon still didn't find it".

This makes you a psychic. Congrats on that super power, though you probably should keep it quiet as you make millions from it.

Of course some may ask for actual proof of your abilities, but do not let that be a concern. Remember to use your super powers for good, not evil.

This makes you anti-business/anti-capitalist. There are many in the world just like you in those beliefs comrade, but money and the quest for it is not in and by itself evil.

Some people and companies do bad things to make money, but the vast majority of the world conforms within the ethics and laws and common sense guidelines that ensure a steady flow of cash in the long term by offering a good product at a reasonable price.

There was a very old game on the Apple for lemonade stands that taught the very basics of business

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemonade_Stand

One option was to try to get as much as possible from people by selling the lemonade for more. You would still sell some, but not as much if you sold it for less. If you sold it for too little, then you sold a ton but made less.

The trick to maximize profitability was finding that balance of price vs demand at various prices (factoring in other things like weather etc). Ripping off customers (ie: high prices or poor quality) was not the path to the best profitability.

Your approach to business is too simple, you just assume evil companies will screw customers, but the market forces do not allow that to work in that way (ie more $$$), especially over the long term.

This is basic economics 101 stuff.

Or was it. Note in after "his" first few posts in this thread I said that if I was to create a gimmick account it would be exactly what he is doing.

Then all sorts of random, unrelated, seemingly made up theories were posted by Username that were willingly accepted by both of you and others because they served your needs.

Once that seemed to change, suddenly there must be a more sinister reason behind it all. Or is there? If Username starts posting more pro-rigged theories in the future, will you blindly believe them?

You really should watch the open mind video posted in this thread earlier.

This is standard doom and gloom "when the day comes, you will all see the TRUTH" speak. It is the staple of every doomsday belief structure. The day never comes, but saying that one day it will allows the people to never be disproven (except when they are silly enough to pick a select date like the UFO landing in Arkansas people did earlier this year).

Yeah, it couldn't possibly be because you're seeing more hands per hour and remember the times where the board is 7TJ4 and you think to yourself "Gee, a Q or K on the river could give someone a straight" and then that card hits.

I think comparing UFO's and online poker being rigged is a bit... what's the word...idiotic? I never head anybody claim, "I lost my entire life saving b/c aliens landed in Arkansas, went to an ATM and with their hologramic cipher, withdrew all the money from my bank account and left no evidence!" So how are we comparing the fact that online poker is rigged versus alien existance? Are you saying that there is the same probability factor that onine poker is rigged versus aliens existing? Let's explore this idea a little bit further. If aliens hypothetically do exists, what would the overall outcome be?
If online poker is rigged, what would the outcome be? So let's compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges....

Capitalsim is doing a great job at the minute Monteroy isnt it?

Im not anti business as I nearly bought a small business last year.

If you think that Capitalsim is synonymous with ethics, laws and common sense then you are truly lost and confused. Many big companies are proven to be unethical and unlawful.

So telling someone that I like their post means I want a relationship with them does it?

What does unethical business practices have to do with UFOs,wtf are you talking about?

I know for a fact that what Ive witnessed at the OP tables over the last few years means that OP without a shadow of a doubt is a money making scam.

Part of capitalism is that it goes through cycles (if you really want a more detailed explanation of this feel free to search it). The current downswing is nothing new or exciting, it has happened before and it will happen again.

The fact that you look at a small sample of time and make a grand conclusion shows the weakness of your thinking process in general. You lack long term perspective.

If we were in a boom time and I said "look capitalism always works perfectly for everyone!" it would be equally flawed.

Also recognize that even in economic downturns many people and companies imrpove as a result. They become more efficient and take more time to better meet their customer needs which is why eventually "things turn around."

Again, it is all basic economics 101 stuff.

If you truly hate capitalism though feel free to move to a non capitalist country. You have that freedom, go for it.

Then you should realize more then most that running a successful business is not about simply screwing people.

Look at it this way, if someone randomly said you must be screwing people with your business because it makes sense that you would do this to make more money, what would your reply be?

You use this flawed approach often, namely taking something another person says and then grossly misrepresenting it.

I never stated that capitalism = ethics. What I did say was that the capitalist system does not allow anyone to do anything without consequence, so your unproven beliefs that all online poker sites are scams based on greed since that is how capitalism works in your mind is flawed.

Some times ethics get in the way of potentially more profit and different people handle that situation differently. Some compromise ethics, some do not, and usually there is a risk associated with it.

Maybe, maybe not. Kind of frustrating when someone implies something about you with zero actual proof isn't it?

That was done to generate the exact reaction you just did, and maybe, just maybe you will realize why all of your accusation filled posts (:ie shills, corrupt businesses) that lack any hard data are treated in the same way.

You fall for the shoe on the other foot scenarios pretty easily. I doubt you get much from it, but you do walk into that trap a lot.

No doubt you believe what you believe, but a fact is something that can be proven. All you have is a belief for now, nothing more.

You are fully entitled to your beliefs, but assuming others will accept them at face value is not realistic. Not everyone is that gullible, though some are (like those who openly accept random made up online poker is rigged beliefs of obvious fake gimmick accounts).

All the best.

Because it's better to make $100e6 per year for ten years than make $200e6 per year for for three months until someone spots what you're up to and all your customers leave.

It's really that simple and your continued failure to understand that is what is making you out as one of that all time great ******ed morons.

But keep at it. Most of us like a good laugh.
