    To be fair, I Googled MattBates once and his job was listed on LinkedIn as:

    Random Number Generator - (January 2007 - present) --

    -- so there may be some truth to the conspiracy.

    i have a point here and its is that yes i have seen certain hands repeat and to add to the conspiracy (Mua ha ha ha) i always wondered if the hands were the same but we were just sitting at different seats to the perspective of the hand being dealt so we receive two different starting cards but the hand is actually the same

    have never noticed this on sky poker though it was on 888

    just another spanner for the conspiracy theorists in the forum lol

    hi julius, i have to agree with you....i am a good player(not being bigheaded etc). ive been playing cards/poker for over 30 years...live and internet... also have had very good results in both except for sky....i win the odd tourny here and there mainly by playing the opposite of what i should lol.....my sharkscope is terrible...my win % flip ( aa v ??) etc is 3/10... if im all in i will be winning at the time...i understand my flopped nut straight will lose to runna runna flush sometimes which is ok...we all want those callers but its the callers again and again that call with 93os and flop trips etc..........i love playing on sky due to the uk side of it but i have never run so bad in the 4 or 5 years of playing on the site...wsop poker site is the same...i played a tourny on there awhile ago and folded all good hands aa/kk/qq/ak etc etc etc....some of the time i would of won but later in the tourny those hands would of lost big pots against hands that shoulf not even be in it....i won the tourny by playing things like 64,58,73 etc etc etc....its a computer program so it has bugs but i will beat it lol even if it takes another 4/5 years :)  gl on the tables all

    hi new to the forums as never really been much of a chatty person but to put it into perspective i started on sky poker about 3 years ago now and im not much of a depositer and i dont win much either but i try to not let this bother me as that causes tilt but since i started playing poker i have gone round nearly all the ipoker sites microgaming sites pokerstars full tilt you name it if its well known ive played there and put little deposits on every site so i can honestly tell you that im sorry m8 its not skypoker this sort of thing happens on every online site and if given enough time (i think the ratio is 1:4 online hrs:casino hrs) you would see this happen live as well the main fact is that as a poker player you do have to accept these things and just move onto the next hand when i was just starting i was exactly the same and after 3 years of reading books watching videos and trolling through poker forums online im only about break even which isnt great but once again not that bothered as i love the game eventually it does turn round best of luck in the future
