So your saying this is ok? Like its not the worst beat in poker ever? Think about it its like lining up 1000 boxes and all but 1 has a ball inside. If you pick the one without the ball you die. Ok well I guess I'm dead

I'm saying in the long run you will be up +998 lives.

Bad beat? yes. Proof it's rigged? no. I'd be more worried if 1 in 1000 shots never happened. People win the lottery at a million to one odds...the lottery is rigged.

it would be way less of a pain in the ass to just put the ball in one of the boxes, and if you pick the one WITH the ball you're dead.

or just have party's RNG pick a number for you.

It is the worst beat in poker statistically.

But, it's happened to me in a live game at Mandalay Bay. I had KK. My opponent had 94o. The flop was K,7,4. My opponent won the showdown.

"It is the worst beat in poker statistically."

How about flopping quads only to lose to a royal on the river?

Same exact odds, 1000 to 1. Both require the same type of runner-runner. (1 of 2 outs on turn, 1 of 1 out on river)

Man, you're such a drama queen. It's 989:1.

Also, by your logic my kitchen table is rigged.
