    What are the good points made out of interest?

    He makes the point that the cards are not random in his view. 

    Many of the negative comments made on this forum relate to the efficiency of the sites operating systems - it would be reassuring to have an informed view on the current performance levels of these systems.

    For example: the site states that in 2009 the RNG was audited and found to be completely fair, random and unpredictable. Had I been playing on this site in 2009 I would have found such information encouraging. However, we are now in 2014 and a 5 year old audit result is of little value.

    I would assume that the site regulator AGCC requires regular compliance testing as part of its licensing conditions - in an attempt to reassure a number of concerned customers perhaps Sky could update its RNG audit information.

    And what has he put forward to support this view?

    He says all sites are rigged to some degree (or words to that effect), so I assume one audited in 2014 would still be doing the dirty in his eyes....

    I don't see any concerned players. Just a bunch of people who would prefer to blame a site for their poker deficiencies than looking at their own game with a critical eye. Easier that way eh?

    Is that rhetorical or should we answer it?

    Do whatever you want.

    I'll take any answer from you with a bag of salt.

    Harry knows full well that every time you defend Sky from the doubters on these forums you get a 1% boost in winning your flips ;-) This improvement only lasts for a month tho and is far better obv than the -2% for the negative comments which have a 6 month time span :-(

    Don't play on this manually programmed software, there is absolutely nothing RANDOM about the cards on this site or any other site. They use blocks of cards that generate play. In cash games this creates more rake for SKY. In comps the software allocates each player a rating and the cards will be allocated to favour the better rated player, this is why you often see big stacks calling with bad hands and always winning.  Try out what I am saying, you will very quickly see the players at your table who have better or worse ratings and then apply this knowledge.

    I have on good authority that this is very true, i believe each persons rating is assigned in direct corelation to the size of their manhood, so you are making a very valid point

    Pass on my deepest sympathies to Mrs Mindman.

    Oh dear Natry, you're dangerously close to becoming one of 'them'.

    Careful.

    Im not backing anyone im keeping myself to myself but how havent it been audited recently? Im nt saying its dodgy but sky seem   quiet about it and 5 years since last audit seems pretty long. Personally i dunno whether its rigged or random but these questions should be answered by sky.  I also think this is the best poker site out there

    This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the blue pill-the story ends,you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill-you stay in wonderland and i show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

    The site states (currently) audited in 2009.
    (No mention of: 2010/2011/2012/2013/2014).

    Hi Somer.

    Why do you play here if you think the site is dodgy?
