Always like to know what the as-yet-unconverted are being told about poker.
At least one of the contributors is mental, very funny stuff.

Teehee. Someone else thinks a site is rigged because they're too retarded to adapt to a loose game.

Are you the GreenMan over there AJ

Askaboutmoney is the only forum-type-website-thingy I check every day in addition to boards. Great place, some cracking arguments can be read and always educational. Threads on poker will always beat threads on leveraging investment property equity though...:)

It's bascially rigged so poor players don't get disillusioned.
Also the number of collisions on ppp is higher than expected (not due to looseness of play either)

A collision is basically where 2 or more players drive up the pot because they both have good hands.

A friend of mine plays at the $10-$20 limit and while its harder to say(less hands go to a showdown) he's convinced it is completely fair at this level but not the lower levels (where more poor players hang out).

Make sense idiot!

No Ste05, I don't post over in AskaboutMoney, they are much too clever/argumentative for me.

Nice link from Hector in that post. I agree with the idea. Any mention of sites being rigged point them to that and be done with it.

Going to put it in the sticky Muso??

yeah thanks Hector.

had to put on my ppp hat on, silly chit.

Karl,

I think when he was talking about "Collision's" he was more referring to times where AA might come up against KK (or the like) more often than it probably should.

And therefore building pots and thereby rake. Obviously crap, but just incase you want to add that bit in.

Also I doubt that guy has even heard of collusion....

karlh · 13-12-2005 2:58pm

that can be covered by RNG stuff. still crap as you say

thanks

Every single day someone suggests that PPP is rigged. Business still good?

karlh · 13-12-2005 3:25pm

:rolleyes:

every day people are talking about poker being rigged, not saying the PPP rig their poker in particular.

i actually meant 'suggestion of rigging' like you would say 'suggestion of salt' as in if we rigged a hand.....

and business is grand thanks :v:

Glad you enjoy it. The arguments can be good at times. Bu=igest problem like all websites is the assholess spaming we ban them fairly quick though.

Wonder where they learned that trick

Actually AskAboutMoney were the first forums to come to us and say "we don't want a fight, we like you we'd like to pick yer brains". Funny eh, now they're pretty big in their own right.

What sticky is that link in? I saw it in the thread on AskAboutMoney but I get a 'Page Not Found' when I try to open the link. Could someone let me know if they can still access it and post it here. Thanks In Advance.

mewso · 13-12-2005 5:20pm

It looks like the site is down. Temporarily I hope. I put the link in our poker guide sticky as a note under online play.
