RECENT CONVO WITH SKY POKER REP.
michael connor: also is it possible to get details of the computer program (algorithm) for your poker site sent to me through freedom of info act to see how it is that the computer favours new players and to prove that your hand are set up to create action ??
Scott A: You would need to contact our auditers of sky poker for this information Michael, which is the 3rd party company Technical Systems Testing (TST)
...michael connor: do u have contact info for this 3rd party and legislation for using a 3rd party to operate on your behalf?
Scott A: Unfortunately not, you would need to research this yourself
michael connor: so your saying that your poker site isn't actualy run by sky itself?
michael connor: surely your obligated by law to provide this information to your customers
Scott A: 13.1. In order to ensure fairness on Sky Poker, we use our Random Number Generator (RNG) to shuffle up and deal the hole cards and the community cards. Sky Poker's RNG has been certified by the third party company, Technical Systems Testing (TST), who are global experts in the analysis of RNGs used for online gaming. For more information on TST and their credentials please click here.
13.2. TST certified Sky Poker's RNG in September 2009. Their results confirmed that our RNG is completely fair, random and unpredictable, within the degrees of freedom used for statistical analysis.
13.3. Sky Poker is licensed and regulated by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission (AGCC). One of the conditions for acquiring and maintaining a valid AGCC licence requires Sky Poker to undergo an annual audit.
Scott A: Thats simply all the information I can give you Micael
Scott A: Michael

GELDY
maybe the site does use a genuine RNG but I do believe it also employs people to play on their behalf , there could be dozens of these players entering up to 4 tournaments at a time on behalf of sky poker or even any other online poker site for that matter
Has this discussion started on Stupid+Thick yet?
Most people that responded here are only having a light hearted laugh.
Surely you'd have always been far better served going through an independent 3rd party auditor, as opposed to believing whatever fake documents Scott A from Customer Care may have sent through?
And if the 3rd party auditor, who oversees the majority of gambling sites, can't be trusted... well it's not really a Sky issue and you just have to quit playing online poker at any site...
