In higher games such as $50 or $100, the employee player either plays without actually buying in, or is sitting there looking at all the hole cards at the table. Easy to program. Either way, the other players are screwed in the long run. The Kawanee Game Commission is just a group of on line casino owners and Price, Waterhouse, Coopers just talks about the RNG. If PWC wanted to reassure players, it would audit the financial results of the sites. If I owned a legit site, I would provide bank statements, sworn affidavits by bank officers, inspections by Microsoft engineers, and any number of other documents to prove that my site was fair. I don't see any such efforts. Until a site is created to track real results from real players, these on line sites will continue to steal millions. Interesting that I have never seen a post or an article from an ex employee of one of these sites.

Here's a quote from Yahoo Business, "It's a high-margin business. On Feb. 22, Sportingbet reported that in the six months through the end of January, the ParadisePoker site contributed $15.3 million in operating profit on $23.9 million in sales." Sure doesn't look like a 10% rake to me. Unless my math is really bad, the profit should have been $2.39 million.

Another track from the broken recordid well, cashed out 4 digits, and now can't win period. Tight-aggressive player... my large pairs are holding up 20% of the time. QQ,KK,AA against smaller pairs, smaller pairs have hit sets 8 times in a row... yes, that is in a row. A pocket small pair has hit the set 8 times in a row when I have had a pocket overpair. I have not hit a set since the cash out... though I did get trips once in the big blind!River beats are constant since cash out, with numerous requiring the turn as well. Keep in mind that my problem with small pairs is in conjunction with all the other crazy things, like 64o of equal stack size calling an all in and hitting a 6 and a 4 versus AQs. I guess it was a RGP'er calling...I remain absolutely convinced that the vast majority of whiners are bitching about the one night where they had AA or KK busted by a fish... but after 10 straight days backed up by careful record keeping, I'm switching sites. Why would a profitable business cheat? If it was a straight up site, the real players would feast on the fish, the fish would go away, and so would the good players. This fad will only last as long as the fish can win... Vegas learned that with the slots... a high rate of return generates more money for the house. Poker is between players; if the casino didn't manipulate things, the fish would be eliminated and the business would be reduced to good players... and good players don't give action to good players. The business would end. The dollars are too large for PP or any site not to look 5 years out... reload bonuses are not good enough to keep the traffic high. All players have to have some wins, and if most are inexperienced, they have to get help.

PLEASE READ... FACTS ON INTERNET POKER. First of all I am no expert on computer software, but I recently held a long detailed conversation with a person who is an expert on computer programming, and he enlightened me to some interesting info on online poker.What most people do not realize is that most internet poker sites do NOT use a TRUE random number generator (and it is completely legal). The software they do use has two main purposes: 1. BIG RAKE and 2. KEEP THEM PLAYING. 1. BIG RAKEThe software used is meant to create multiple "big hands" in order to increase the pot size, thus increasing the rake. This is why you see so many hands of a flush rivering a straight, or a full house rivering flush, etc. The hands are PREDETERMINED in order to get the rake to its MAX. This is why you see so many pairs on the flop, one suited flops, and under-pairs hitting to beat over-pairs. These situations are perfect bait for large pots (thus large rakes). ***note- when i say predetermined, i mean the software will designate multiple big hands , but will NOT designate them to certain people (who receives what hand is actually RANDOM)2. KEEP THEM PLAYINGLet me go back to the PREDETERMINED hand philosophy. When a player is all-in during a hand with EVERYTHING he has (nothing left in his bankroll), it is MORE likely for him to catch his cards no matter what the circumstance, or it is more likely for his hand to hold up. The software recongnizes that the player will go BROKE if he loses, so the software INCREASES his odds of winning the hand. In short, internet poker rewards river players and short stacks, and punishes slow players and big stacks going against small stacks. This is not say that river players will win in the long run, but they may experience the river hitting more often than the odds indicate.
