    Albert Einstein is quoted as saying "God does not play dice with the universe".

    However, he may do when it comes to awarding places in Sky Poker DYMs.

    just been thinking..... i know... dangerous

    but is this the most pointless thread ever? because although we have clearly discovered a blatant flaw in the software, this is the only flaw in Sky poker's software that doesn't actually matter, because when will this ever happen in a real situation?

    no, it will only happen in this experimental and theoretical environment, created by a tv presenter and mathematical wizards, but does that mean that the flaw should be corrected?

    Absolutely, i would give it top priority over the downloadble client!!:) and other important stuff like the project to make tikays avatar appear younger and orfords to appear with a bald patch.....fix this dym problem imo, so we can go back to our "normal" lives and not spend our days fretting over theoretical mathematical problems. Unless you do this full time, like Vince anyway and then there is no difference.

    i love having time off work, i achieve so much lol

    So we can safely say that in accordance with our rigorous and foolproof testing..

    That the following is True:

    Vince is a Luckbox.

    Lisa-Marie is  Loser.

    Lisa-Marie types about herself in the 3rd person.

    2nd and 3rd place are not determined by hand ranking, blinds, position or Poker Prowess.

    DanTB owes us all money.

    Machka has achieved NO work today.

    Maxally and Machka are involved in collusion that conned us out of 60p

    Greg and Aski were just in it for the glory and will now post in Area 51, threaten to leave and return in less than 24 hours.

    Chris is going to BE very sorry for mocking me!

    Young Gun is full of good ideas but will not actually put his 56p where his mouth is.. ;)

    I think the only way this will ever be resolved is if we have an all in free roll

    2000 runners going all in will keep Mere busy analysing the results for all of 5 minutes I'm sure :)

    As for threatening to leave Miss Long, I'm already writing my letter of complaint to the Gaming Authority, Sky Poker, Matt Albright at Watchdog, Jeremy Vine, and will be setting up both facebook and twitters pages campaigning to get my 30p back.

    When we doing the next one :D

    Aski :)

    Unravelling the mystery of this "apparent" flaw could be the most important finding in the history of life on Earth! It could unlock the whole meaning of life, the universe and everything! Those familiar with the Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy will know that the answer to that question is 42 BUT if we find that the answer to our puzzle is 56......
    Well the consequences could see every player on Sky winning WSOP bracelets and Sky Poker hats being sold at auction for millions! Not to mention the stress balls and keyrings!

    IT COULD CHANGE ALL OUR LIVES FOREVER!!!!

    ....apart from LM of course, she would still find a way to lose! ;)

    Me? Mock? I've never heard such nonsense!!

    has anyone tested the theory of who was ahead preflop? worth a try, im no good at % and at work so cant do this till later
    Posted by YOUNG_GUN
    Lisa-Marie just had AK sooted and still lost, it's defintiely not a pre-flop thing.

    Is it safe to say Lisa-Marie and pre flop in the same sentence?

    The way your luck is running in these Lisa, I bet even if you were sneaky and folded you wouldnt make the money , somehow a way would be found for you to finish 5th :)

    I'm sure I could've cracked this if only LM hadn't gone and finished 5th in that second game......it ruined the whole thing!!!!
  • edited June 2010
    Yes.. A HEADACHE?
  • edited June 2010
    I have a theory that accounts for 1/3 of the observed results:

    If your name is Merenovice you always cash, if you name is LML you don't.

    Now we just need to find the missing rules to account for the other 2/3.
