A couple of months ago, a friend of mine that played poker on fulltilt ALL the time, suddenly stopped playing there and warned me that I should stop playing at fulltilt too because he claimed that he was in a hand and at the showdown when all the player's hole cards were revealed, there were (5) 6's in play at the same time (in players hands and on the table) and he said that he was certain of it.

I asked him if he took a screen shot of it and he said he didnt so without seeing it with my own eyes, I just find it hard to believe that such a reputable site (that I LOVE!!!) would be cheating their players like that.

Just wondering if anyone else has heard of anything like this and what others think about fulltilt's safety and trustworthiness....

Thanks for your input

If that had happened it woulda been all over the place, and someone would have got a screenshot.
Maybe your buddy had one to many, or found one of those rigged sites that claim it happened.

I'd have to see the hand history before I believed it.

wow, is five of a kind in NL Holdem better than a royal flush ?
If so I immediately go playing on FT, cause I would like to make history beating a royal flush in NLHE.

I've seen screen shots of something similar to this on 2+2, where the river was displayed twice, side by side.

I remember seeing one Omaha screenshot where the river card was continuously repeated so many times, it continued off the end of the table.

In both cases, it was confirmed to be a display glitch by the software that didn't effect the outcome of the hand and was corrected immediately.

Quite often I get dealt 3 hole cards on FT.

But then usually I've had a case of beer when that happens :eek:

I think you're friend is 'rigged'.

I actually did hear about some glitch after an update.... & I actually had a weird occurrence on my computer one night.... it dealt out 10cards on the board (all cards were duplicated). [not BS'ing] I folded & then mentioned it to the others in chatbox & they thought I was nuts (so it obviously only occurred on my computer & was immediately after an update).

I'm still waiting to get dealt quads A's..... preflop 'obviously'.

This or your friend was drunk (maybe both).

Or a graphics bug, I have seen a few of these.
Even though there were so many 6s, how was the pot allocated?
If it was split, I call shenanigans.
If the pot was properly allocated, I say get a new GFX card, maybe you can get a good exchange deal for your tinfoil hat. :)

Maybe your friend said he was 5'6 and you just heard him wrong.. or maybe he said it was 5 till 6 when this happened, or maybe he was playing pot limit and he won 5/6 of the pot. I'm sure one of these MUST be right.:D

It'd be nice to beat a royal flush, but you couldn't do it with 5 of a kind because there wouldn't be enough table cards to make both hands.

Sure there would.

example:

your hand - TT
your opponents hand - AcKc

the board - TTTcJcQc

Our hand - 5 tens

Our opponents hand - Royal flush clubs

Now we just need to find that magic 5 Ten deck and we're in business!

my friend once told me that he played in a wsop main event and there were 5 daniel negreanus sitting at one table. as a result, the other four players at the table got AIDS and died.

i just couldn't believe that the most prestigious tournament in the world would allow this.

Your friend didn't think to look at, say, the hand history?

This thread is a joke.

To the OP: Your friend either had a graphics glitch, or is completely full of crap. Either way, stop listening to him.

^^^^^^^^^ All my friends are signing up, we just need to come up with a term for it, since this will obviously be the new best hand.... Quints???

Quite often I get dealt 3 hole cards on FT.

But then usually I've had a case of beer when that happens :eek:


When I have so much beer, the cards are nicer to me, I always get 4

Reluctant to post in thread as it will end up subscribing me to the rigtard's thread once again after the merge.

Anyway, why hasn't OP been banned yet?
