Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

Wow, that is actually a little disconcerting. I guess we shouldn't be totally surprised, but still...

I seen this picture posted somewhere else previously and saw that someone searched those hand histories and none of those people were at the table at the time and it was photoshopped. Still a funny picture though.

No sh*t. Rule #1 - never believe anything you see on the Internet like this, especially if it comes with a long back story (like those dumb emails that get fwded about ATM fraud and such like).

As a software developer this always annoys me a bit.
To code a rigged poker site wouldn’t be hard.
To make it so sloppy as to provide proof it was fixed would require intentional effort.
It’s retarded.

Twiceasright won the last pot 24000, then we see the river card on the next hand with $665,036 in the pot, no play or other comments in-between, except reference to 5 A’s, could that be possible with at least two observers, I think not, defiantly shopped.

Somebody went through alot of trouble to shop this. Really good job but some suttle differences really give it away.
For one, the lettering on the cancellation pop-up is a different font then what is on the main board. Second the card placement of one of the hole As was tilted, slightly but enough to notice. Other then that they did a good job.
I agree with Muck though. Having a knowledge of computers and programming, to rig a poker game like this would be next to impossible. I could go into detail but such the forum. All the detail from previous posts about online poker being rigged would tell the same tale.

Muck said it would be "easy" to rig a site.... from his programming point of view. That would be the "opposite" of hard.

For a programmer, rigging the game would be utterly simple. The level of stupidity it would take to make such a blatant error would hard to acheive.

This is such an old picture.
And yeah, it happens often. On my site though they are much more clever, they simply invented a new suit for when 5 A's come
