A New Low

Did anyone consider a Nordo’s response could have been sarcasm? At least that’s how I read it. Y’all involved in some skullduggery.

Ok, I’m going to do something that doesn’t happen anywhere near enough on this site. I’m going to lay out all the conditions for a statement then look at the results.

The original poster said that he went 0 for 50 holding KJs in deuces wild. Here’s what that would look like:

Game : 9/4/4 deuces wild 50 play ( I picked a deuces wild flavor. It shouldn’t matter too much for this case)

Event: dealt KJ suited ( discards weren’t specified, but should not matter too much)

Result: no winning hand

Math

p( non winning hand from KJs) = 13802/16215 = 0.85119 (from Winpoker)

p( non winning hand from KJs on all 50 hands) = 0.85119^50 = 0.00031714 or 1 in 3153 ( from Bayes, so at least you got that part right)

This is roughly the same probability as seeing red come up 11 times in a row at roulette.

So, from a sample size of 1, not having set the conditions or hypothesis beforehand, a 1 in 3153 result becomes conclusive proof of cheating? You should never walk into a casino again. And you saying ‘believe me’ when you lay out a nonsensical argument doesn’t
help your claim.

Pretty stupid way to cheat. You take a low paying event ( KJs is worth 1.7 coins per line) and force a rare occurrence ( no winning hands). So, a casino sets up a high risk of detection event for a low payout? Casinos do some stupid things but this isn’t
on the list.

That occurred to me briefly, but I considered his past posts and applied Bayes' Theorem and came up with P(sarcasm)=0.

The other night, the winning numbers drawn for Powerball were 13,18,37,54,61 and PB5.

The odds against that are astronomical, and I take it as evidence the thing is rigged.
