  1. Here's a sample of over 37,867 hands that I found on the internet....a decent enough of a sample size.......now please no more tin foil hat theories about online sites being fixed.

    I've just completed a starting cards, flop, and board analysis over 37,867
    hands I've played at low limits on paradise poker. There may be errors in
    the calculations here, but I've tried to make it as accurate as possible. If
    someone could check the "expected" numbers I've posted, that would be great.
    This took a lot of work to finish, and it's been something I've been working
    on over the past 1-2 weeks! Hope this is helpful. Here are the results
    (warning, lengthy post):

  4. Wow those stats seem pretty dang close to exactly what they should be.. It is almost like they are preprogramed.. You know, like a computer program might be. You know instead of random.
  5. lol....
  6. huh?
  7. Yes, the sites are actually rigged to be random.
     
  8. lolololololololol

    That may be the funniest post I have ever read. Very nice adam.
  9. Adam just became my favorite person on this site by that comment.

    When he deletes one of my posts he'll be on my shit list again though.

    Nice job adam... nice to see you add a little zing every now and then.
     
  10. does look VERY close to expected for random tho hmmm......

    in fact if anything i think this just arouses more suspicion towards the "preprogrammed" arguement but no1 will EVER be right lol
     
  11. 5 quads out of 37,000 hands....there were 3 in one sng alone i was in today on stars
  12. yea but dont forget the stars "quads" button is set to the ON position hehe
     
  13. THE SAME PERSON GOT QUADS MORE THAN ONCE?

    WHAT'S THAT? HE DIDN'T?

    OK FOR A MOMENT THERE I THOUGHT U ACTUALLY HAD A POINT!
  14. the point being proven here, I may be on a limb here, is not the randomness of the Numbers Generator (as that cannot be proven with sheer data), but that online poker is not rigged....everyone gets the same hands the same amount of times, while staying true to statistical probability, over the long run. Personally, that is all i can ask from online poker.
  15. what about what hands they pair other hands up with?? is this not possible?? and the time at which they do it(i.e start of tourney or on bubble)?? do these factors not make alot of difference to winning or losing?? (I can feel a business plan comin on loooooool)

    oh well obv im wrong and online poker could NEVER be rigged!!

    gl all and f tin foil hats!!

    anno
     
  16. ummm....except that the same thing happens live.....the reason you notice and remember these hands is because they are the big ones....you don't whine when u have 67 and run into 78....aces and kings happen in live games too...not that often...the only reason u get to see this happen, is because someone raising aces needs at least queens to be calling, barring an unfavorable board....i bet aces and pocket 5s happens at least as many times, but the 5s get dumped, whereas people don't know how to toss kings preflop...
  17. yea i do agree ppl play ALOT more junk online!! obv meaning more bad beats i feel!!
     
  18. i know what you're saying, but in my experience players are a LOT worse live than online.
  19. I agree....it's a significant difference. Playing online requires some effort.....setting up an account and depositing, etc. When I go to the casino, 2 or 3 people at my table are just trying out another game, after playing craps, slots, or whatever. There is almost always at least one person at any limit table that doesn't know how the betting works.
     
  20. Thanks for posting those stats! It won't do much to convince people who think they see a pattern, but it's nice to have something to point to anyway. Anyone who really htinks the sites are rigged can easily do something like this themselves and test their theory. If you think something specific happens at certain times you can test that theory and if it's true you can make giant piles of money.

    All that easy money to be amde by simply tracking some hadns and figuring out the pattern to how things are rigged and people are wasting time trying to warn others about it instead? Ridiculous. You conspiracy theory people should be out there making millions from us fools who think things are on the up and up instead of wasting time trying to warn us when we will definitely never learn.

    Those of us who believe things are truly random are much too stubborn to believe otherwise, so give up on trying to show us the light and simply take our money!
