It seems I have to repeat this many times to make you understand it: They DO have a reason to manipulate the cards. They manipulate them so that eventually there are no winners.

Ok, lets just get this clear, you have absolutely no idea what you are saying. If you do the maths, what you are suggesting is a sure way for any poker room to close doors very early. I can assure you that it is not the case. There are winners, infact there are players that makes a living playing online poker, a very good living. They are brilliant players that have mastered all the aspects of online poker. Online poker is different to land based in many ways but mostly play strategy.

All these posters in casinomesiter and other forums who are desperatelly trying to convince us that online poker is not rigged, are affiliates and casino representatives, who would lose future profits if the truth prevails. They know it is rigged. And all these online poker "professionals" are affiliates. Their profits are from affiliate commisions.

I am a poker player, ex-casino employee and an affiliate. I do not promote poker as an affiliate, nor would you find my affiliate site's link anywhere in my signature, and am probably someone you would call a disgruntled ex-casino employee. But I have worked with online poker and also played it for many years. You speak from inexperience and have clearly been mislead to believe that people speaking up for poker must be people that can gain from their views, financially. That is usually the stand point of someone that are so convinced of his own opinion that he cannot think neutrally about it, has no evidence to back his "opinion" nor are willing to debate it with logic. Open your mind to more thoughts on this topic, you will be surprised to see how little sense your opinion makes.

I tried to talk logically to this guy as I am not only a winning poker player but I'm not an affiliate, rep or anything related to these poker rooms. He won't be convinced because he has lost a ton of money and has to blame someone. You're basically just feeding the troll. When you stop feeding trolls they usually go away.

Anyone wondered why he won most annoying poster?

Thanks pokeraddict, will do, can't say I didn't try!

[fatshaft]

totally agree with everything you have said you have to be an idiot not to think they are fixed!! you can do anything with software EG with video pokers you can fix them never to pay a royal flush so goodness knows what these poker companies can do PS my girlfriend is a web designer and iternet marketing expert with a very high IQ she played online poker after years of playing "real" cards 2 weeks later she said never again would she paly online poker Quote "the software is fixed"

Are we speaking in relative terms in relation to the "very high IQ" of your girlfriend?

Hi Thodorisk,

For your poker queries, have you tried playing the different network freerolls on offer, and trying to get an understanding of how the different networks 'deliver' cards?

There are quite a good few freerolls out there with no conditions to play, so why not take your poker playing experiments into those spheres, to confirm whether your 'poker is rigged' theory is correct?

regards,

Dazzla

That will not work. He will simply state that the Freerolls aren't rigged but the others are,...
