in Poker Chat
Hi , would be interested to hear from others who think that sky poker is not quite as fair as it should be ! Having studied standard deviation and the probability of chance it astounds me how many times a player with three possible outs hits on river card on this site ! To say that this happens on a very regular basis absolutely amazing ...... Would welcome a comment from Sky on this what shall we say ....... improbable statistic ?However i feel that this will not happen !

    I think there is a high probability that you will be ridiculed.

    You question the integrity of the site then want someone from Sky to comment?

    What "improbable statistic"?

    If you would like to offer some statistics of your observations over a reasonable sample size, I'd be happy to comment.

    Who exactly benefits from these supposed improbable statistics?

    I have also studied statistics, and I believe there's a high probability that you are talking nonsense.

    I have also noticed that there is a positive correlation between likelihood of moaning about the RNG on the forum, and the number of buy-ins lost in your most recent session. Just sayin'...

    If you have studied statistics then I imagine you understand how important it is to have, erm, umm... data? I cannot see your data in your post?

    Your point is on rather shaky ground when you complain about the frequency of something happening but do not detail the frequency of it happening.

    Although I may feel like sticking a blunt pencil in my eye when I see some rivers... it doesn't "astound me how many times a player with three possible outs hits on river card on this site".

    Frustrating yes but it seems, to me at least, to happen with roughly statistically probable frequency.

    Where would be without conspiracy theorists? Let me see-main options seem to be:-

    1. Sky risks its entire gaming business in order to take your £5 and give it to someone else; or

    2. You are deluded

    Tough call...

    "feel" probably means that you need to study more.

    After reading this I can say that statistically there's a 100% chance that you've never studied standard deviation.

    There is no question, he's not very subtly suggesting the site is bent.

    This is why he's getting the responses he's getting, and rightly so.

    All he has to do is take one look at 'the rail' and he'll never trouble us here again.

    He is very welcome in the Rail, but more constructive would be to point him in the direction of the free play tables to test out his theories without losing his money then after come back with the outcome. What is your suggestion.?

    I have no suggestions for people of that ilk. They are beyond help. Constructive enough for you?
