Default Re: Pocket Aces twice in a row!!

My wife is asleep right now. I'm waking her up in an hour to go to the airport. We're all packed. Nothing much else to do except to make fun of other people over the internet. Goodbye Philly, hello Sandals Antigua. This trip is definitely +EV to my sanity.

I must have hit distribution mode today...pockets Kings twice in a row (same site), both losing. One to pocket 3's and the other to A8o.

If by close to a million to 1, you mean 48840 to 1, I am in complete agreement.

That's insane! Say audiopostman, were you excited when you saw the red aces as your first hand? I know I would have been. I'm sure you were super happy when they held up though. Were you nervous when the other guy flipped over pocket 10's? How much would that have sucked if he had pulled a 10 to beat your aces!

[/ QUOTE ]

Actually I wasn't that excited. I've just never been dealt AA twice in a row. Even so I've been beat by lower pocket pairs many times. I expect that if I raise preflop with aces and someone else puts me all in that I am facing another pair.

[ QUOTE ]

I'm sure you were still pumping your fist in the air from the previous hand when you saw those 2 black aces in the VERY NEXT HAND . How insane is that? I don't know the probability of that happening but it has to be close to a million to 1. I'm sure if you made a post in the probability forum titled "What are the chances of getting the same hand back to back?" they would probably love to answer it for you. I don't think anyone has ever posted a question like that there so you might want to. Be sure to reply back here with the answer to because I'll bet everyone is dying to know.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I'd like to know as well, but not so much as to bother posting the question. Maybe someone can answer that for us? Don't worry, I'll PM you if I find out. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

[ QUOTE ]

So anyway, on to the 2nd hand. Did you think the site was cheating by giving you the same hand again? I'm sure if I was your opponent I would have been so mad. Do you think that they thought you had AA again? When that scary flop hit did you get nervous at all about the player with 77 hitting it? That would have sucked because then you would have had no money left.

[/ QUOTE ]

I've been reading all the posts about online being 100% rigged so I have to give it some thought. It would have sucked if I lost but as I am a new player to the site I must still be in win mode. (Which changed today, see my KK post in this thread.) In any case it was scary to see the 77 guy almost outdraw me.

[ QUOTE ]

After that hand and you were dealt AT, did the Ace come first? If it did, that would be really funny because if it happened to me I would have thought I was gonna get AA for a third straight time. Could you imagine that? Anyway, you forgot to tell us what happened with the AT and A8 suited hands. Did you win them?

[/ QUOTE ]

LOL, your right it did come first and I thought, "NO WAY!" The flop hit with two hearts and a 10 so I bet out and did win. The A 8 I floded on the flop. That Ace came off first as well.

[ QUOTE ]

Please explain why you quit after just 4 hands. You probably had a really good table image after that because people saw you showing down monsters. You could probably have raised a lot more before the flop because they would think you have AA AGAIN (lo1!).

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah you are right, now that I think about it. I should have played more. I was just shaking with joy so badly that I couldn't play anymore. I mean how often do you turn 25 pounds into 100 in 4 hands? I had to call all my friends, it was crazy!! Also I didn't know how much money I was risking and I never won so much. You know thay say, "Better leave early a winner than late a loser."


[ QUOTE ]

So were you excited when you saw the $200 in the cashier? I know I would be. I mean, going from 25 to 100 pounds in 4 hands is insane. Do you think you could sustain that winrate throughout your poker career? I bet if you could you could make a lot of money. But you probably won't get AA in 2 out of every 4 hands (LOL!).

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah it was pretty cool, let me tell you. Seeing almost $200 in my account just made my day. I'm not sure if I could maintain this win rate though as I think it is a bit unrealistic. Maybe half that would be good.

[ QUOTE ]

Anyway, this post was so much fun to read. Please tell us more of these crazy insane stories that you come across. I have one where I was playing on a $100 NL table one time and I had around $90 and some other guy had me covered. To make a long story short I had KK and lost to his AA. The VERY NEXT HAND, I had rebought (because I had lost my whole stack lol), and I got it all-in before the flop against the VERY SAME PERSON but this time I was the one holding AA. The flop came out all low cards and the turn brought a K, and the river another low card and he showed KK! So he beat my KK with AA and then my AA with KK. I couldn't believe it!

[/ QUOTE ]

WOW! That's even better than my story. Sorry you lost but it is kind of funny and crazy. I hope that I can play in a big game like that someday. I'll just be careful in real life when I have AA or KK. Thanks for the advice. It's nice to know there are cool people on this message board willing to help out and share their stories.

This one time I got QQ and KK in a row, and both times someone else had AA.

Audioslave- Basically what LondonBroil is trying to say in a very sarcastic way is that NO ONE CARES about your back to back Aces. That's poker. Quit flooding the forums with stupid, worthless posts like this.

I had a similar thing this morning. Back to back AA...couldn't believe my eyes! Been on a downswing lately on Party since I started the May reload but the hands the poker gods dealt me today were sweeeet!

Congrats on the big win...mine didn't net as much as yours!

I got KcJc three times in a row last night! Also, I got Td3c twice in a row! Man, I was so excited.

I probably made a little bit of money, because KJs is a pretty good hand!

This happened to me in a SNG once. First two hands I got were AA. Both heldup too.

What? Please don't be mean to LondonBroil. It was very nice of him to write that long message to me. If you don't like it, just don't read this post. I never understand people who complain about flooding forums. No one is making you read every thing written. Gee Whiz!!

And FYI, I have had more positive replys than negative in regards to my original post, thank you very much.
