The Doggins Incident






Me and my crack team of screen naming experts (me and the dog) would never consider a dog related screen name or even mentioining dogs. For those fans slower than others - look up the word "irony" in the dictionary. Other than that, let's take a break from the dictionary abuse and go back to some other stuff so bewilderingly wrong with internet poker.

I have a tendency to not simply play Hold'Em on purpose because they simply just can't get it right. It's way too easy for an admin to make it look like you've got no business being at the table. My credentials allow me the luxury of playing at any variation and knowing that if the cards were truly random, over the long haul I would be successful.

One of the greatest weaknesses in PokerStars the past several months is the lack of significant chat. And this table had zero chat other than 'doggins'. Fresh off of buying a new pair of Underdog Underoos, doggins wants to school a table full of AI on how good he is and how lame they are.

This is wasted on me. Probably the only real human on the table.

Strangely, the self-proclaimed expert, as always, gets sick great cards. Another major weakness of IP. If things were random, every once in a while one of his taunts would backfire and he's lose a mjor hand vs. one of the tauntees.

And, now get this, I swear I'm not making this up. One of the early taunts was "Who's the fat guy with the chubby chick?"

There was only one avatar that both a male and a female. And the picture had both of them cut off at the neck.

More about my creds -
10+ years of this. I've taken an IQ test five times and never finished lower than 161. Because I'm on to them I deliberately search out things that don't make sense. IP would do themselves a huge favor by spending a couple hundred thousand dollars on upgrading the program, hiring more employees and trying to make it make sense.
