    Err i think that one, if you want all in preflop with that with 10/20 blinds, then that can safely be defined as a giveaway attempt :D Sorry u cant spot that!

    The first hand in this thread, is no hand no draw really, as he is clearly not doing this on his inside straight draw... hes just trying to giveaway basically isnt he, what else is he doing.

    Just in case 'the liar' gang come in BBmike spoke at 15.34, while at my table 15.41 we had another 'special' hand....

    Cant we just shake hands, stop being silly and just say you can go in any newsagents and your not going to be able to buy a similar performing deck?

    I mean we all know this, cant we just accept it????? I mean Doyle Brunson, hes played a good amount of hands hasnt he in his lifetime? How many times at Omaha has he flopped a straight flush... if ever? Ive had loads.....

    Ok so an inside straight draw doesn't count as a draw, got it. Is it only your opponents who aren't allowed to giveaway or does it apply to you also? I could think of a very easy way of winning every game very quickly for you.

    I would say if you playing online and there is only one result in a given situation in any variation of the poker games, we all have a problem.

    As it shows it can not be a chance occurence... if you have not spotted it in your chosen game yet, then that is a different matter.

    Agreed. And if anyone ever posts credible evidence of this being the case I will be very concerned.

    U really asking me this? This is the hand you related to, where as we only held mainly hi cards between us, he was fortunate not to get 3 quartered.... as the remaining deck is rich in low cards AND there is more low cards in a deck than high to begin with.....

    Thought you knew something bout poker?

    I cant think of any situation where i would be trying to giveaway to this extent, so no it doesnt really apply to me. I do tend to be all in with something more than this, that could never be described as a giveaway... its kinda best.

    Although i adapt my game for the internet heavily, im not about to test going all in with nothing every game like you suggest, even if i won...

    But if giveaways are programmed to not lose for anyone, all you need to do is pile your chips in with garbage every time. Why aren't you doing this? You'll soon find out whether it applies to you or not.

    Very little I'm afraid.

    Ok, you just mean there are plenty of lows in the remaining cards, I wondered if you had spotted that this particular deck you were playing with was dealing out a disproportionate number of low cards.

    Maybe that's the halloween deck, it's difficult to keep up with all the variants.

    Mr Nostril, as no-one gives any credibility to anything i post, even hand screenshots, i invited so called respected players that i know play hi lo to post a giveaway that DID lose... The result was rolling tumbleweed.... i mean i did try to go another way about it...

    But Essexphil said 'he simply did not have the time' for example, although he trawled the internet to find some dirt on my previous staking company, even going on to companies house and writing an essay afterwards.

    I mean i do try my best and even put it in your hands, in an effort to explain things... but when the excuses dont match the actions, its kind of what can you do.......

    I thought I'd pop in and see if I could spot any of these 0% occurrences as it seems quite unlikely

    Because it goes against everything i stand for. Im looking for a change in poker games, not to encourage what is bad about it....

    Orrrr... because you don't really believe it. A bit like when you say your strategy is to never raise when there's cards to come, but conveniently forget this in the 'heat of the game'. I mean, it's got to be one of the simplest strategies to implement right?

    Are you familiar with the concept of anecdotal evidence?

    About as familiar as you are with the concept of confirmation bias, I should imagine.
  • bbMikebbMike Member Posts: 3,716
    It's his lived experience, I don't think he wants to be shown that it's a falsehood. Imagine making outlandish claims then wondering why people might want to come and see for themselves.

    First you dont seem to know what a lo rich deck is, when we both have hi hands preflop... then you post this garbage when in the first hand im short stacked with 530 chips and the 2nd im pot committed with nosebleed blinds with a big wrap draw.....

    And on top of that, i quite clearly state that i consider the deck to provide enhanced hands, which in the long term favours the poorer player... at high blinds and shortstacked there will be times that i indeed will benefit from this feature, where i have no choice but to gamble... like poor players do at 10/20 blinds and equal stacks.......
  • TheWaddyTheWaddy Member Posts: 1,592
    I mean the answers to why im all in, are all there.... if you think i should be folding either of those given the situation, id be surprised, especially against a player who usually has very little.... and the fact i got lucky just backs up the fact there is a very high rate of lead changes late on, which you all deny....

    Of course i will benefit from these too in these 'no choice' situations. Enhanced hands are there for the long term help for chip throwers....
