 |
|
Does any one else think the poker stars software has a few bugs in it?
The stud game is overwhelmingly a game of suckouts and one outers at every level. Too much to be random. Deuces trip up on stars like 50% of the time. Any one feel differently? |

First, welcome to the forum.
Second, there's a poker stories forum where the "rigged" theorists meet. You'll find lots of wrong, but like-minded players there.
Third, see the "General Questions" forum for a thread that debunks almost every "rigged" theory currently floating around. It will be a long read, but worthwhile.
Finally, in a fixed-limit game, you'll find people drawing much more often, and as a result you'll see many more suckouts.
On a side note, did you come over from Pokerroom? I only ask since you felt compelled to add a "GFY" option on your poll. |

| Since I won it and I don't really ever play stud, I agree it's rigatoni with extra sauce. You must be right. |

Just so ya know....the software for FTP and PokerStars was developed by the same individual at cryptsoft.com...the guy's name is eric young
This can be checked out by clicking on the "Help" tab at the top of PokerStars, and Full Tilt, and reading the info included in the "About PokerStars/Full Tilt Poker" section.
How about that all you forum pros....an answer backed up by evidence....lol...now if everyone would do that, huh?

The bolded part of your statement is exactly correct. The fact that its pokerstars has nothing to do with it.
Limit stud provides pot odds to chase many different types of hands, and chase them profitably as well. It is the nature of the game. If you are in a hand with 3 other players and you have three of a kind, you can bet the other players are chasing str8s, flushes, higher trips, boats, etc. With 3 people with a chance to suckout, its going to happen.
Throw in a poor stud player or two, and they'll be chasing all kinds of miracles. Don't forget, miracles can happen with 7 unshared cards. |

The cryptographic software was developed by Eric Young -
It's called openSSL.
Encryption software is software whose main task is encryption and decryption of data, usually in the form of files on hard drives and removable media, email messages, or in the form of packets sent over computer networks. |
