Re: I just found out the reason..

I've played over 2 million hands and only experienced 2 1-outers.

This seems like a statistical anomaly. I assume you are only counting cards that you can see, and not those folded by others at the table. Even so, since the chance of hitting a one-outer on the river would be 44-1, this means you will only have someone drawing to one outers 44 times in one million hands of play. You must play against much better opponents than I do. I recommend better table selection. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
I have had it happen to me at least 3 times that I can remember in live play and at least once online. I have played no where near 2 million hands. Probably closer to 200,000. Set over set loses when bottom set improves to quads. Nut flush loses when gutshot straightflush draw hits. Baby full house loses when second ace hits the board and two people each holding an ace chop larger full house.
There are many ways one outer situations can come up.
