Online poker is one of the success stories of the last decade. An estimated $500m is wagered every day worldwide, from uncounted numbers of players. It has become an incredibly lucrative business. Accordingly, there are some who believe that online poker has become increasingly rigged. Many sites use random number generators to generate the cards, and suspicion remains as to how random these generators really are. Additionally, there is the question as to whether the person who wins the hand is actually a person at all, or rather a bot placed there by the company running the site. In addition, stories of people who have found ways to beat the system have caused suspicion. After all, if there''s a way of beating the system then it suggests that the cards might not be as random as they are supposed to be. That is not to say that online poker is rigged, merely that the suspicion is there and that several high profile lawsuits have suggests that there''s no smoke without fire. That is why the arrival of RealDealPoker.com in the market has caused so much fuss. RealDeal uses unique technology to demonstrate that each hand is authentically drawn from a completely randomised pack of cards. In fact, if you want, each hand can be traced back to an actual pack of cards. This alone does not guarantee the randomness of the draw. So the company behind RealDeal has made the promise that if anyone suspects foul play they can request an independent audit for a small fee. If the auditor cannot validate the game results, then all money will be returned to the individuals who took part in the game and the person who raised the query will receive the fee for the audit back one-hundred fold. Additionally, to help prove that the person next to you at the table is in fact another player, RealDeal are incorporating a cut button. This means that the player can choose if the deck is cut, and, if so, at which number. They can also choose not to cut the cards at all. This element of choice, RealDeal hopes will prove that every player in the room is a real player. Any step to make online gaming more realistic and less susceptible to rigging is a good one, and it will be interesting to see how large a slice of the market RealDeal attracts when it comes online later this year, at the moment, the signs are promising for the guys behind RealDeal.
