So, you have probably played poker online and you think that is rigged as me. A lot of subjects are about that on internet and I am not alone about thinking online poker is rigged. I know that some people don’t think it but honestly, I will argue my point of view and tell me if I am wrong.
At the start everything is wonderful
At the beginning of the game, when you are a new player everything is easy. You win all the times and you beat also some very good players. So you are very confident in your game. Your gains are more and more important and you become a little bit addicted at it. Every night when you come back home, you need to play it because you want to get more money. I started by playing with virtual money. I am not rich enough to play online with real money. And after a while, I could observe that my luck was disappearing a little bit more every day. And at the end because you lose more that you won, it pissed you off so much that I used to play until getting any more money and surprise at the end of the game, they proposed me to buy some more virtual money only for £2. Bloody hell! If it is not a scam that.
Programming and poker
My partner is programmer and he used to teach me a lot of thing about programming. He told me that with an informatics programs you can everything. It is a little bit like Excel. If you want that Excel select the values under 10 and colour them in red it is possible so programming a website it is the same thing. The programmer can decide everything like that. Ask a programmer to program software able to limit the winner a day. He can do it. Also he can limit the maximum winning for a player and it will apply for all o the player. For example, after 20 win a day, the player has to lose the rest of day. It is possible to program it and when you lose too much you just want to stop so you have no idea about it.
The fastest tournaments ever
I have played a poker tournament in New Zealand. It was about 400 players. I have finished 14th of it and it took me about 10 hours to play it. I have played also a free tournament as well on Internet and we were about 2000 people and I have finished in the 30 first players. It took me 1 or 2 hours not more. So 5 times more players and 5 times less hours, it is unbelievable. I agree that it is quite difficult to believe that even if a computer in dealing for you, it make a such big difference. I am pretty sure that the website manages the time to get more people on the other tournament. Every round someone has something amazing. Sometimes is you sometimes is your neighbour. Forcing people raising is probably in the program and give 2 or 3 different good games at the same round eliminate more players in once. Everyone called because they have a good game such a straight and the other one as a flush and the last one a full house??? Believe whatever you want now but I am still thinking that something is weird in online poker.
