It's pretty beautiful if you're holding QQ. Not so much if it's AKs.

I personally hate trips of any kind that don't give me quads.

AKQ.

that or any monotone flop. a monotone flop means either i flopped a flush and everyone folds, i flopped a flush and someone draws to a bigger flush or i flopped a set and the board never pairs [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I hate the AKQ flop when your holding Ax out of position. You bet out, and it gets raised.

QJT is a nightmare for a flopstealer such as myself. I press fold and click no when I am asked if I want to check.

Kind of a funny story. Playing 80/160 at the Bay I took a prop bet with this guy sitting next to me that the flop would not come all paint. If it did, I paid him $2k. If it didn't, he paid me $20. This went on for a few hours and he ended up dropping maybe ~$1400 to me before finally crying uncle. Two flops later: KKJ. The flop after that: KQJ. The table went nuts.

why would you make a prop bet in which you have virtually no edge? (.10 a bet i figure???)

increase the amount of gamble in the game?

anyways i guess it doesnt really matter, cool story.

He has no edge at all. With p = (12 choose 3) / (52 choose 3) we have

EV = -2000 * p + 20 * (1 - p) = -.1086
