I am confident that if you play enough hand there you will not even notice that.
I suspect that if I play enough hands there, I won't notice how I've blown my entire game balance.   Angry

If you understood how our system works, you'll feel much better.

Let me briefly explain.

The current randomness/shuffling method of most poker sites is basically the same. It's "Trust me bro we got audited" stamp. What auditing services do is that they run the algo large numbers and see if the outcome deviates from the standard distribution. That's all there is to it. The real question is... how do you know if they ACTUALLY implemented as what they claim or even worse: how do you know if there's manipulation AFTER randomness generation and shuffling of cards. So far there hasn't been any solution.

Because if you want to let people to verify hands publicly, it would violate hand privacy of every players. No one would ever play in such poker site. So how can we allow public verification while keeping the privacy of player's hand history?

This is why we came up with consensus-based randomness/shuffling along with hashchain.

Hashchain, which is basically a chain of hashes, proves that the seed hash for the randomness cannot be modified. If we modify the seed, people can know.

Then the seed hash is combined with player seed, which is given to each player. Players can edit their player seed at will.
If you want to verify the hand outcome, you need to ask your opponent's player seed. If both agrees to verify, they can do it independently without trusting Basepoker.

What if your opponent doesn't want to verify? Sorry, this is the only limit. This is why we create a way for anyone to open their own private cash game table. Invite your friends and verify together!

This consensus-based verification is the only possible method that does not violate user privacy while publicly verify each hand. There is no room for intervention, modification, or cheating.

Let me know if you have any other question!
