Devils advocate: Whats your opinion?

I heard a story about a player. In the first 3 months on a site he won quite a bit. After circa 6 months the wins slowed down.

Anyway said player closed the account and went and played elsewhere. However after 3 Months the player returned to the old site, primarily as its a good site with lots of traffic and players. This time a new name was chosen.

The first 3 months were again very profitable, but wins slowed down again after around 6 months.

The only conclusion is that the player had an edge being an "unknown".


Is this ethical?
Would it be ethical if the player did this repeatedly. ??

I don't think thats even possible , I know of no site that lets you change your username if "unknown " means site rigged for new players ,lol , if "unknown " means the other players didn't know it was him , lol .

fell free to join any site you want and keep your same username , I can guarantee you that you will remain " unknown " to 99.99% percent of all players .

Hi, this person only has one account at a time with the poker site.

Once you close your first account, you are not allowed to open another.

Ah ok - I must be misinformed. Tks

No... your story could still hold, they COULD have many, many accounts! its by NO means legal, but totally possible, and incredibly easy to do.

First 3 months I sucked

next 3 were worse

should I change my name/luck?

or read a book?

Usernames are directly tied to luck. I thought everyone knew about this?

There's a video online that shows how it works. Here it is. YouTube - poker name vs luck

it's been like 2 months since I last got rickrolled
