Its simply unbelievable that a hand that is supposed to win 20% of the time actually does! I mean, its not supposed to happen! -_- zzz

preflop maybe, but by the river he's down to 4.6%.

preflop is when the bet was made. Which of the five upturned cards is the queen is irrelevant. Preflop, there is a 2 in 50 chance that the first upturned card will be a queen. Preflop, there is a 2 in 50 chance that the fifth upturned card (i.e., the river) will be a queen.

so when you look at being knocked out of the tourney with no cash, as opposed to, doubling up with only one card to come:

Oluwafemi, your arguement is moot, it doesn't matter if the card came off on the flop or on the river, it was 20% to happen in total, the money went in preflop, I shouldn't even be responding to this and should let it go away, but you need to get it through your thought process that this is just bad logic to be fair, and I really don't see what your post was going to accomplish..
