I play my local 4-8 LHE 1/2 kill and do very well. However, I rarely get to initiate a 1/2 kill game because I rarely win two hands in a row. Does that mean you can still win and not go on a rush? There are players there who will call with any two after a winning hand just so they can try and get a kill pot next hand.

I dont know if Ive added anything to this conversation.

To the OP,
Yes it feels like this. Also "Varience" (the downswing side of it that we all love dearly) almost feels like someone put us on a new server and coded it with "You will lose every hand for the next 12 hours of play, No matter if you take a week off or not!!! HA!!!!".

However, I think i trust that the sites arn't rigged, and therefore trust hands are random.

Of course if you are a LAGGY guy your "streaks" of hot and cold will probably be more varied. If your a tag the varience will most likly be lower and streaks wont seem as crazy.

I once remember calling 3 gutshots without odds as i was running hot, i hit all 3... That was kinda cool.

Anyhow, these posts only get sarcastic answers(Funny though) as we're all so bored of "Poker is rigged" "i've found patterns but i have no proof" posts.

Thanks for the recognition that you can run hot and cold and YES I do believe that the cards are random and that each hand is independent of all the others and that 3 gut shots in a row is a random result but I'll wager that you won more than your 1/10th share of the hands or 1/8th if you are really good during this "streak" and that you have lost more than your fair share during other periods.
