I have been tracking hudreds of thousands of hands over the last 6 years of play and can pinpoint the same patterns from game to game and from poker room to poker room.

That doesn’t mean I win or even cash all the time but much more than I used to.

I think it’s Doyle Brunson who said in his SSII, “You can no what to do but doing it is another thing.” Close I hope.

I’ve been working on writing an ebook entitled, TRAPPED BY THE DEALER,
which exposes the details of the software program patterns like when a low stack player gets AK (suited or not) late in the game and goes all in, that player usually loses to the big stack because the big stack not only can call but should according to the odds makers (I don’t know much about odds but often see that happen in live games with a reason that escapes my mind at present).

But if the low stack player simply raises say three times the BB, then it’s not as enticing to the big stack player and they usually fold or sometimes just call giving the low stack player a better chance to continue.

The other night I was experiementing with some tricks I’ve seen other players use like being the first to go all in on the first hand of a game no matter what they have. My 93d beat AK, my 67ns won, and a few other
examples. But the next night I tried it, whammo, no good.

Anyway, I’m struggling to put it all together. At 65 and disabled with intractable cluster migraines which does not allow for long periods of play or concentration.

In 2007 I hooked up with another disabled person to write a kids’ book that became an Amazon #1 Best Seller for the category we applied for: WHO SAYS KIDS CAN’T FIGHT GLOBAL WARMING. We are in our 3rd Edition but I’m backing off selling it at Amazon since they get 55% of the lsit price which allows me only enough extra to cover printing costs (and very low priting costs at that).

I like what you have had to say especially about adding a second program during the game to change the possiblilities that favor the large stack player.

But do you know why that’s done? That’s my key premise and not one I would like to give away right now but I’m sure you can figure it out. If you guess it, I will tell you if that’s it or not. You might not be interested at all, and that’s ok too.

When you come to the realization that their all rigged or fixed then you will be better off. I could go into detail, although the best I can tell you, if your a solid player for the most part (you usually come into a money position) Keep track of what your dealt in a game, especially when you seem to come into a 6th-4th place. Ever see an increase in your deuces? What it is is the system seeing your being dealt an ace, but like programming goes, they can throw in a second random generator and change the chance you will get a deuce rather than an ace. Another item to look at is your bad beat ratio. I know bad beats occur a higher than average percentage online, but check your cashier, you will find that when you play the same money in your account for an extended period, you will ‘seem’ to run into a much higher percentage of bad beats, and more often the player you have pegged as the wild player amazingly hits his low pocket pair, or somehow outdraws you with a good, yet weak hand.
People check the high limit games, but your best way of winning a lot of money without the worry of getting caught is in mid-range play. Most accept a run of bad luck, from time to time. Most of my info is in a notebook that I have next to my desk, and so far I see a lot of out of range percentages.
I have been playing for a long time on Pokerstars, Pokertime, Bet365 (which I got robbed on), ultimate bet, absolute poker, Bodog Poker, full tilt, Carbon Poker, Dream Poker, and Titan Poker! (Tourneys only).

As a fellow programmer like Ronald Dale. He will tell you the same thing, their is no such thing as a computer driven RNC (Random Number Generator) which is basically what the gambling sites use, they just call
it a Random Card Generator.

In thw words of a famous player to another player , Player 1:Hey your playing in a fixed game!
Player 2: Yeah, but it’s the only game around.
