Yes, that is all well and good.
The simple point here that very few people seem to be getting is that for the thousands of times that people in this forum have said/thought, "Oh, I would have made my flush" or "I would have flopped a set" AND just as many times that people have said, "Whew - good thing I folded, because I would have gone broke here" or not thought anything at all because the result was insignificant in their mind......... well, that's all crap. You can't do it, because there is no such thing as a fixed deck.
Yes, it's still random. And no, no one can influence the action any more than anyone else. But the fact remains that online poker sites (at least Full Tilt) us a continuous shuffle, and that changes how we look at the game.
