I was always of the impression that every single card was random, not every single "game" (as they use the term). This is some really messed up shit. I had looked into signing up there a while back, but now I am glad I didn't.

Not enough info
I’m definitely going to be keeping an eye on the thread over there, just out of curiosity. The email seems to authentic/elaborate to be a fake, but the admission is so crazy, it is hard to believe this could be the case.

Yeah, the hands were posted in the original thread over there. They were absolutely identical. I was thinking of putting some money into Mansion in hopes of getting onto the PokerDome Challenge. I haven't yet and think I'll hold off a bit now. I've also heard that cashing out there is a bit of a pain but that's just a few extra hoops to jump through. No biggie there. But if their card generator is cranking out identical hands within minutes of each other...

The thread
Assuming TP doesn't mind the link ...
Hand history is included. Thread has interesting back and forth -- the posters have a low post count, which is suspicious, and the hand histories have slightly different formats, which is discussed. But I don't see a motive for it all being a hoax, and if so, it sure is an elaborate one. If they posters are just looking for attention, I'd imagine they'd make this claim about a larger site.

I don't mind links to sites like 2+2. It's not like no one knows it's there, and this certainly isn't SPAM trying to get new users, ya know?
My question: Is it possible for anyone to reuest these HHs from Mansion, like anyone could from Stars, Party, etc? Or are they one of the sites that annoyingly don't alow that sort of thing? |

Actually, here's how it (usually) works:
The SHUFFLE is random, but once the deck is set, it's set. It's then just a matter of revealing the predetermined order of cards to the players. Some sites use burn cards, and others - including Poker Stars - do not (since there is no need to online, obviously). |
