I don't usually post stuff like this, but this one was pretty weird.

The second hand followed immediately after the first hand...that's right, same villain.

Wow, I've never seen anything quite like that. Knowing myself, a couple of hands like that would force me to take a few hours off. Then prepare for a great run of cards, the luck has to change soon.

Strangely, even though I think I am still way too prone to tilt, the absurdity of these two hands struck me more than anything else, and I really didn't feel bad at all afterwards. It also didn't hurt that it was in the middle of a really good session.

great run of cards? lol
like maybe 96o or even 96s?

fold preflop

that is impressive. maybe one of the probability guys can tell you how rare of an occurance this is.

Just a couple of days ago, while clearing the party bonus at 1/2 6max, i was dealt JJ twice in a row, flopped a set both times, but only won once. i don't think it was against the same guy or anythng crazy ike that, though.

OldLearner · #7 06-09-2005, 05:54 PM

Playing 10-20 live one time, I was dealt AA in my first 3 hands at the table.

Lost all 3. All to the same villain.

Won about $1,000 that evening, most of it from villain.

People always report these "strange" and "abnormal" occurrences when it occurs online as though it has something to do with the online environment.

It doesn't.

I think OP was simply posting something he found bizarre. I don't think he's suggesting online poker is rigged. Everybody already knows it is.

Grinder · #9 06-09-2005, 06:07 PM

I gues you just don't mess with the Big Lick

You see more strange things online simply because you see more hands online. Still, this one was pretty unlikely.
