Each day when I leave home I come to the same stoplight. I approach it and the light immediately turns yellow then red. This happens about 30% of the time. I do believe Pokerstars has rigged my stoplight.
How can I be so sure? I called the city street commission and was told this particular stoplight is red for 120 seconds, green for 140 seconds then yellow for 4.5 seconds. That means that this happens about 19.6 times more often than it should. Much less unlikely than seeing a flop of AKx flopping top two pair then being beat by QJ with a T on turn or river but still not outside the statistical norm considering the number of times this has happened.
