For instance, nearly every accusation is presented void of any sort of empirical evidence. Regardless of how many people point out obvious counter-arguments such as the fact that most online card rooms have their games audited by well respected firms to ensure that the games are fair, people continue to insist that online poker is rigged.Īlmost without exception, claims of online poker being rigged fit pretty consistent patterns. Though it’s more than obvious to many people that most of the major online card rooms are legit, the internet is littered with literally thousands of claims that they’re somehow rigged. If you have heard an argument or have your own argument not covered in this post, please email me and I’ll add it to the list.
Mind you, I do work for a company that develops online poker software but my motivation is not to convince people to trust *my* employer’s software, rather it is to have a central place where people can point misinformed message board and blog posters who think somebody is pulling something on them. In this post I will attempt to address every argument I’ve ever heard regarding online poker being rigged.
