    Default String Theory & Poker

    In the last few decades, string theory has emerged as the most promising candidate for a microscopic theory that attempts to provide a complete, unified, and consistent description of the fundamental structure of our universe, often referred to as a, ‘Cosmic Theory of Everything'.

    There are times in the game when from middle position, your 9cTc, though weak, you feel is a must play. The poker gods limp 5 players to the flop where you’re starring at the King high straight flush.

    Just like when the flop hits Tc2h3c giving you trip tens but your stomach is screaming caution and you just know its going to get ugly only to have the short stack hit her flush on the river.

    I believe there is a cosmic force involved in all things, giving us our, “Gut Feeling”, perceivable while playing the above hands in our beloved game of Poker.

    It is my opinion this is why when we play on sites that continuously shuffle the remaining cards in the deck while in the process of a hand, it is impossible for your gut to get a reliable “cosmic read” on what will play out in that hand. The reason for this is because the future is always changing. This is why such an unproportionally high number of players know the sites that do this as donk-a-thons.

    I understand the need to prevent those inclined from hacking a game. I just wish there was provided a front-ware option to play a game without the continuous shuffle.

    Traditional Shuffle or Continuous Shuffle?

    Although this would create issues with the fact that they all use binary pseudo random shuffle as opposed to a true random shuffle, but thats a subject for another day.

    Make a great day everybody…

    My favorite part was when you went from string theory to "we're psychic" with little more than the word "cosmic" to tie the two together

    Spoonitnow, centrally located in most townships are, large buildings where you’ll see people walking in and out al day. Inside, if so inclined, you will find rows and rows of books. I recommend spending a bit more time there.

    Some sites do. I could swear I remember reading that FT do, but I could be wrong (and dont care enough to check).

    why do you want to lock it? it's in the blogs forum (which doesn't count for posts) so I'll leave it for now because it's kinda funny.

    Dude your "gut feeling" is your subconscious...and why would any cosmic anything tell you about poker? To me the OP seemed like a fancy way of saying "I think poker sites are rigged".

    I understand OP very well. After a long period of meditation I have experienced the weirdest things, but no need to reaffirm my insanity now.

    This radioprogram discusses the relation between mind and matter and also describes the human consciousness project. You might love it Jar!

    This dude is contemplating about the effects it may have upon poker, but he may not have listened to all the parts of the program. Fun anyways:

    But now my heart races with rage! You show so much disrespect for OP, on matters you know very little about! Hell, even the scientific community has little understanding of the universe we live in.

    Please, you guys need to show more respect for OP. After all, HE IS YOU!!!

    If your theory is correct- couldn't I just apply it to roulette, and bet all my life savings on say number 32 (because the cosmos says so?)

    Continuous shuffle all the way, I don't need any universe hackers on my table.

    If your mind is powerful enough- yes! But most peoples consciousness is like a drop in the ocean- they have no effect!

    Here is some more goodstuff from Dr. Dean Radin.

    dthorne- please gtfo.

    Scientists from the Princeton University has made some incredibly interesting findings, and we are discussing some possible implications it may or may not have on life in general, and poker specifically.

    Most of you sound like the typical 117 IQ person with strong egos and enthusiastical drive for fame, fortune and bitches. But when we in the 130`s and 140`s have a discussion you should be quiet- because you have nothing to contribute with.

    Please stop the failed bullying- it only shows how little power you have.

    I do actually put some stock in this stuff, though likely for different reasons for SirP and Jarlith probably have. I try to read that string theory stuff and my head asplodes, I just don't get it, and I've pretty much given up trying to.

    Anyways, I've often had a sense of what is to come, that "gut feeling". Though, I don't let it affect the way I play my hands at all, I do like to play by the math.

    Regardless of whether I'm delusional or not (because I could very well be), I believe this does have a positive effect on my poker mindset, especially when things don't go my way, since I knew? it was going to happen anyways.
