    Default strange software

    I have played over 30,000 4card omaha high hands on Poker Stars.I decided the easiest way to check the odds of a card game is to monitor ones own starting cards.There are 270,725 four card combinations in a 52card deck.I was concerned about certain combinations of my starting hands.I was unhappy about the frequency of receiving four suited cards.There are 2,680 four card combinations of 4 suited cards making it approximately 1%.I was continually receiving 4suited cards at least twice as often as i should have.I put this to PokerStars on several occassions and was continually told that their software was just fine and that i neede to play 50,000 hands etc.Well i kept playing and there was no evening out of the odds.There are also other hands such as receiving trips in ones starting hand and twopair in ones starting cards and both dont add up to the true odds.There is another situation that comes up much more than it should and that is when there is an allin preflop bet and call 2 or more players and the flop is paired.These situations dont add up when you take the odds into account and in over 30,000 hands i believe that the gap is too wide regarding odds, i mean if you played heads or tails for 10,000 spins and you were losing to the tune of 25% something wouldnt be right would it?I have played over 750,000 live 4card omaha hands in the last 14years and if i compare the 30,000 online pstars hands, there is a vast difference in the way the cards come out, namely online doesnt add up when you take the odds into account.After all omaha is very much a game of odds.I am making a statement here that the 4card omaha games on pstars are an insult to ones intelligence and that the company needs to show integrity regarding its software and not take the vast majority of its players as fools.

    i don't think its good to put all your trust on poker software just to win the game. You can't guarantee that it will give you good outcome. Few players had complain on the functionality of those softwares. Instead of killing the game, they are the one that end with a big lose. For you not to be fake, play fair!
