FYP

Well, go pay fidy for a hand audit on RD. Then come back and tell us what a Good Deal you got here

It's not about liking odd networks or disagreeing with 2+2.
My favourite networks were unusual ones such as wpex, gamesgrid, ongame, skypoker, entraction, ipn and paradisebet(or whatever it was).

The problem is the claim that he made 4500 from 50NL on the site in 6 weeks. I don't believe him...

LOL @ the title change!

"The problem is the claim that he made 4500 from 50NL on the site in 6 weeks. I don't believe him..."

I doubt that $4500 has been waged in total in the site's existance to date.

if they were raking that many pots they'd be able to afford an actual marketing campaign instead of a prop-army of gimmick accounts.

fyp.

Seems to me from reading the thread that the other poker networks are paying people to come on here and talk down real deal. I don't play there but i will when there are a few more thousand players.

More thousands? In four months I don't think they have broken 100 logged in players yet.

Edit: at this moment there are 4 players.

(just click cancel when login comes up, and you can view the lobby)

I didn't realize they had a flash poker client. I remember the first (and last) time I saw a flash poker client.

More like Realdeal would have to pay people a lot of money to play there.

Why would the other sites pay people to do that when so many are obviously interested in making fun of them for free?

However, if people truly are getting paid to do that then LOL at me for missing out. Would totally jump on that extra income. Any ideas on who to contact to get in on this sweet gig?

Really, where do I sign up for the Shill Deal? I bet Stars and Tilt are rea;;y missing the 14 players that Real Deal has. Their Poker Scout graph must be something like a nose dive On the shill program, do I get ffps, cash or T$?

Yeah I know. But a lot of sites actually have one as an alternative to installing software. They have an exe too.

That kinda sounds dirty

Yeah this is fair enuf.... prob unlikely, but there is one player on the network tht seems to be running/playing well... and the players are very weak... might be a heater... but might be bull, but yeh fair comments

They kinda are atm

Its on there web page.. same as for stars and ftp.... thts where i signed up for all 3

Reread the post he quoted. The guy is almost certainly a shill. He lied about how much he won there as an example of the soft games. However the games are not that soft. How do we know? Because the games he claimed he was beating for a ******edly impossible winrate barely exist at all...

Isn't Russ Hamilton signed with RD?

Gene's pissed.

Technically true but misleading. There is no random number generator in the shuffling and dealing of the real decks of cards. However, after scanning those cards they use time stamps as a pseudo random number generator to pick a fixed algorithm to rearrange the deck. I'm sure Gene would rather leave that part out though.

That's at least misleading if not a flat out lie. Physical decks are not used for each deal on the site. If he means each deal but the shuffling machines then that's intentionally misleading.

Gene really doesn't seem to realize that this is of very minuscule value.

Hmmm the WSOP also uses human dealers. If it's good enough for them surely it's good enough for RealDeal Poker. I assume they're working out a business plan to trash the shuffling machines and get some human dealers in there post hast.


Oh but my intentions are questionable. Let me clear it up. I intend to inform and entertain.

Seems like the last thing Real Deal needt to put in place, is Real Players. Then they will be well on their way!!

It's not that we wouldn't like to play with real cards, or wouldn't even want to play with ******s that have a genuine preference. It's just that we'd want to play some someone. That's the part of the equation which is missing.

If Gene really thinks no one is playing on Real Deal because of mean old 2+2r's then he should ask himself why he's gotten such a cold reception.

Could it be the way his unofficial spokesperson, Stephen Meares, presented himself and RealDeal? Or maybe the way Gene himself douched it up when asked questions oh-so-long ago? Possibly the fact that it took nearly a year to get going after so much shilling has shaken the faith of potential players? Perhaps the tool who runs the RealDeal Forums, which Gene claims he has no control over, has lowered the fever of Rigg Tards (TM) to play with real cards.

If Gene were to just come out and say "Hey, maybe we got off on the wrong foot. What can I do to turn this around?" he might have a chance. If he's not willing to try that, I doubt he's gonna be too successful. A guy who has a vendetta against online poker probably doesn't really know how to run an online poker site, ya know?

He also needs to give an honest description of the game they offer, and stop saying it is dealt from a real deck of cards "just like a live game". They are providing a different kind of computer deal that is seeded from real cards. They originally did set out to deal from a real deck, until mechanical reality nixed that idea, and so now the deck is generated by a computer. Just using a different method than a traditional RNG.
