You mean yourselves now or somebody else? Why would you care if others lose with AA, and how many hands you got on them

I care because something smells. I guess after playing casino holdem for the last 12 years and NEVER seeing "Group 1" hands getting beat the majority of the time or playing a nine person sit n go and seeing quads hit 8 times. That is beyond any probability imagineable. If you don't think so then you are quite naive.

If they are truely random, then maybe they should introduce bad beat rewards. That will keep the rake high (or higher). They won't because their current algorithm would break them.

With that said, they are not rigging the game in anyones favor, but it does remove some skill from the game.

What do you mean by "not rigged in anyone's favor?"

If that is true, the game is simply not rigged at all by definition. If it is rigged, it has to benefit some players.

My MP3 player played the same song back to back today while on shuffle mode. That's like 1000:1 to happen, I'm gonna send it back because "the shuffle mode is rigged".

What are the odds of quads hitting 8 times in a 9 person sit-n-go? I almost joined your game but I though you played for money.

Why would they rig it so that happens in a sit-n-go? They don't get rake, they just get a tourney fee, if they have that already why rig the game?

We did play for real money, and I won $2.50. Do you have any idea how many hookers you can get in Nottingham for that kinda cash?

8 times sounds pretty unrealistic. At least 8 times in a row. But anything is possible
