I saw this reallty unsettling you tube video... I looked around the forum a little and didnt find anything on it really, although i could've missed it. BASICALLY what i saw was someone playing online poker at some obscure probably shut down site, while this program was up. Now, this program, through some kind of random number generator or something, would predict the flops, with decent accuracy; having only to input the whole cards that you could see (your own and any others shown) as well as the flopp turn and river cards. I guess that, after a time, this program would create a few algorithms that would generate the cards that you would see in your hand on the flop etc. It would generate flops, and a lotta the time the projected flops would be a card or two off IF THAT. So if someone knows anything about this please shed some light. I see a lot of posts of people speaking intelligently about the uiga and such, so im almost sure someone has some information for me. please enlighten me, because im quite perturbed by this... TY

This sound like you saw bullshit video, I would like to watch it.
I think the flop can't be decided by the hole cards cause it's not how it is programmed. The random for the flop, turn, river is made from a seed that is not depended of the hole cards.

From time to time, programs have surfaced claiming to be able to predict the flop/turn/river. Then the promoter charges a huge fee to license that program.

From a programming/logic POV, writing such a program would be a challenging project. And one might get sophisticated enough to dance around the solution a little better than we as players do. But if they got ridiculously close don't you think such a great solution would instantly disappear?

Greed would set in, along with paranoia.

If you really want more info along these lines, visit Stars or Tilt or anywhere, and find prohibited software. Google those and you will find out a lot. Beware. If you use any of those prohibited programs while playing, they will find you. By playing, you agree that the sites can monitor your system when playing, and it is easy for them to find out what software is running on your system during any session. Stars knows you got porn up in another window!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Throughout human history people have profited by claiming to predict the future.

Its an old con in a new guise.

FYP

Honestly, if someone had a program to predict the board, they'd be playing at least midstakes and easily making 5 figures for like an hour of work. Just play some 10/20 or 25/50. The games are so aggro that people stack pretty light. If you know when you're going to hit a set the game gets a lot easier lol. Or if you know you're gonna get counterfitted you just muck it early in the hand.

I would definitly say that that program does not exist... The way these
poker games work is that the cards that come out of the deck are put
there due to a randomizer of the highest of qualities. Even if you put
your 2 howl cards, if we are playing texas that is, there would be 50
possible cards left from which the flop could be made of, and there are
117600 possible combinations! so for it to even get one of those cards
right is extremely improbable. Sorry to say, but these randomizers are
on right when the last person to play does his or her move. So to predict
if before all that would be impossible.
