my names WHATSAFLOP.... ILL BE BACK!

yes to all questions

Wow I love this subject are pokersites rigged how can one assume that they are. Then run off programs and bad beats are bad beats. Has anyone put into account that there are like 10000 hands every few seconds, so no one could even figure out the math to this....... 10000*60=600000 hands (at least)in a minute so odds are gonna change dramaticly every hand and as some one said before that our memory only remembers that when we get a bad beat and not when we issue one to another. I personally thought that like 5 or 6 years ago then realized about the math of a million hands every 2 mins. And now see that its luck and it sucks when we get then beats. But remember its POKER

I didn't know that FUlltilt is Rig....

after getting beat with AK vs A7 with a 4 card straight to the 7 then AQ vs A6 and getting beat by a 4 card str and then get AQ vs AK where i hit a 4 card str and lastly getting beat with AA vs 88 where i was under the gun and 3x and insta called in the bb, to see a flop of 558 and check raised all in. all in just 77 hands, i decided to come on this forum and see if anyoneone else thought it was rigged, sure enough about 6 threads down i saw this.

i mean this site is unreal. does the favorite ever win?

i read about 7 pages and then skipped the end. i cant believe how stupid some of the comments are, like:

why would a multi million dollar company rig a site? well jave u ever heard of enron? or absolute poker or ivan boskey? the rig it cause the can, and because they are greedy.

also this whole, "its human nature to only remember the bad and not the good". wait a second teh orginal poster said he lost with aces six times in a row, so what you are saying is u dont believe him? he stated this as a fact, he didnt say, well i think i lost around 6 times in a row over the past 5 months. it all happened in one session. i know for a fact, as per poker traker, that i lost 6 out of 12 times with aces. i was 14 out of 15 winning with AK, but i am just saying. it does happen, but it is crazy.

anyway, maybe teh people that dont think its rigged always go in as the dog??

i actually like making bad calls on full tilt, i usually win those. enjoy the post

Nope. Never.

By saying it's human nature to remember the bad and not the good, they're saying it's human nature to remember the bad and not the good. Or has he only played 6 hands of poker ever?

I understand, you're just saying. I mean, only winning 20/27 with AA and AK, that's crazy.

I wasn't a believer before, but your 77 hand sample has convinced me. I'll never play at FT again.

thread delivers

Full tilt is rigged!

He says so. (and so do 90% of the comments)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r89tSAxAu0c

**** full tilt.

why do hands that should win 90% of the time win about 50%.

I dont have this problem LIVE...from now on....no more online poker for me.

Only bet on sports online!

Hai there, welcome to 7 posts ago.

OMG! An online poker is rigged thread! David Huber DOES NOT allow such things in other places and times. I cannot speak about FTP, as I just have started there, nut I am an authority about ULTIMATE BET based on some low limit tournament grinding I have done there lately.

(NOV 01-SEP 07) 3044 Tournaments - $12.71 Ave.Buyin - 50.29 % ROI

Ten months of heavy play, 7 TLB wins and $9900 profit on the TLB promotion, and a net of $34K. My strategy was to eliminate variance and multi-table tournaments to break even or win. My biggest losing month? $2100 and my best month was over $10,000. I also have nearly 20000 hours of live experience before I found online poker. May I speak? From a grinding perspective?

Is it rigged? How is it rigged? Is UB tournament programming rigged? Does FTP tournaments play out similarly? What are the differences and similarities between FTP and AP/UB and PS? Is the live play experience necessary to see programming tendencies that exist in low limit MTTs? Topics should include alternate periods, rebuy and bounty play, blind play, bubble play, small stack attacks, and ‘making your opponent laydown’. Basically, I altered my play due to the programming and changed my deposit and withdrawal methods also. I’m not the only UB tournament player that was doing these things. Many theories abound... If I thought we could have a discussion about this subject, it could have maybe been constructive. <post tinfoil hat now>

Disclaimer: Don't even attempt to read this if you're under the age of 25 because you're lost. There are those of us suspicious that Stars, among other sites, may be using some sort of coding in their Software/RNG/Algorithm to ensure that bad players, AKA fish, are catching more cards than they should in their ongoing pot-odds disdaining odysseys. The motivation for such an outright hustle and fraud--would be two-fold:

1. To ensure plenty of funds continue to circulate at the low stakes where most of the "fish" play, rather than be withdrawn by the grinds who tend not to engage in hot pursuit of the case ace
2. To ensure those fish have long life so the largest school of them generate the highest possible rake out of those recirculated funds already chopped.

Personally I believe if any shenanigans are in play, it's strictly at the low stakes; Anyway this is just a THEORY, not an outright ACCUSATION, and there is unfortunately no way to prove or disprove anything of this nature, the main reason being for as long as they've been in operation all of the major sites have declined to open their servers and software to scrutiny by a viable third-party auditor/watch dog. But heck, don't take my word for it, ask our resident consumer advocate Michael Josem about this. He put up a whole website on the subject (and shortly thereafter was hired by Poker Stars).

Ask self! ‘Self, wouldn’t I be more surprised that online RNGs were ‘on the level’ as opposed to NOT being on the level. AND so mote it be…

Enjoy!

I'm not surprised by the amount of vastly unintelligent people who think they are intelligent and are in denial about their own poker abilities.

What does surprise me, is their ongoing epic quest to "inform" a bunch of people, who know that they are dead money morons, that online poker is rigged, despite the clear fact that just about nobody wants to hear it.

Why can't they just keep their thoughts to themselves?

I just picture them having these dreams of leading the crusade and finally proving the sites are rigged!

I think it's common sense that if ANY sites were rigged, especially the ones that have been around for 5+ years, somebody would probably figure it out. Let alone the fact that not one of these goons has bothered to collect a meaningful hand sample and prove their theory using anything remotely resembling any scientific method.

Fairly simple need for validation combined with a lack of emotional control. Add to the mix the need to get back at the sites that "did them wrong" because they (good players in their mind) lost to "fish."

I just wish some of these guys would at least put some thought into their rigged theories before spewing them. Most offered would be insanely easy to prove if true (ie: flushes hit too much, action flops whatever). It's like a 5 foot 6 guy claiming he is 7 foot 1. Maybe try to get people to believe 5 foot 7 first.

That's right, after over 200 hours of playing micro limits I have absolutely no doubt that the cards are rigged for the crap players!



I have been a winning player all my life (since a little kid!!) at live games playing stud poker and texas hold'em. Even without having read a book on the subject.



After registering with pkr about two months ago I decided to read up on texas hold'em got four books two beginners, a Phil Helmuth and Brunsons super system 2 book.



However, the more I study and the more I play the more I lose. Now I don't consider myself out of my depth at these low level stakes but why do I keep losing? There can only be one answer the site is rigged.



Why do I say this? Well I play a solid game, make some money and then lose all my profit and some more because someone has bet all the way to the river card massively against the pot odds and hits. This happens so often I would say that whenever I have 2 pairs or three of a kind I will lose 60-70% of the time to someone chasing the flush or straight. So much to the 1 in 3 chance of hitting!!



Perhaps I have become the unluckiest online player? I know you have variance but for certainly the last 160 hours of play I have become a pyshic having the ability to read the river card with ease!!



Lets face it if was not rigged all the donks would get stung a couple of times and never come back. But we all know they come back because they know damn well that chasing a straight or a flush is profitable not only because of the good chance of them hitting but because of the implied odds/profit.



No doubt I will get some saying otherwise, but I can only assume they have an invested interest in the sites.



Whether the other sites are the same I don't know, I can only talk about PKR cash games.



Be lucky!!

This may be where you got it wrong.

Very bad players can do that too.

You're talking to a community of avid poker players. You think you're unlucky? There are many players who have taken many more swings, many of which are far far far worse than yours, and this is from very good players as well, not you.

.

This is the pattern. I know exactly what you are talking about. And now a few who are in the conspiracy will come here and write "do you think PKR is after your micro limit dollars?". It's not about the couple dollars, it's about keeping the fish come back and keep the money divided by the players to rake them all over time.

Later when you get better, you will be able to read the turn and even the flop too. And, dont be so sure of it, but when you get as good as me, you can also read the preflop also known as hole cards before anyone has taken action.

Tell'em Ro!

You are currently in Stage 3 of your interwebz poker development grasshopper.

Stage 1 (discovery)- They have poker on the internet? Cool! Let me try it.
Stage 2 (success)- ZOMG, I am so good and these guys I play against are so bad, I'm gonna be a pro and I'm gonna get a Porsche and I'm gonna make a gajillion dollars and I'm gonna...
Stage 3 (post-setback)- This crap be rigged, yo.
Stage 4 (variamemory)- You know, it does look like it will all even out eventually. I forget the times my QQ beats AA but remember the times it happens the other way. I remember when they suckout on me but don't even think about the other 19 times where my hand held because he didn't suckout on me and he just folded and I never saw his cards.
Stage 5 (restart)-If I take this seriously and actually learn the games and improve and grow in knowledge, I could possibly make some coin at this stuff.

a) How is this guy not banned yet?

b) If you were able to tell the hands so well.. why would you say anything? You could go into cash games and mop them up... make easy money.

I would suggest using sick level tactics to chase all your straights and flushes then you will seem like a donk and own all the other players.

P.s how does the site know whos a donk and who isn't?

Obviously they have their employees tracking the play of each player + sometimes hire detectives to find out whether you've read Phill Hellmuth's books or Super System 2 before.

Yo really, how is he not banned yet. This is 2 days in a row he is talking about some pattern. Arecal the op is talking about an entirely different website then you were talking about yesterday. So you think they both have the same "pattern"?

I lol'ed
