Either way it was complete PWNAGE.

I guess this is the poker gods repaying me for running bad for 15K hands?

Oh no...it's creeped into the only forum where we could talk refuge from "pwned" and other ridiculous words with poor, internet etymology.

if that sequence of pocket aces 4 times in a row occurred in a home or private game, than some of the other players would suspect cheating.

Well, no. There will be at least 2-3 players from that table who will be coming to forums like this saying how online poker is rigged because of this, assuming he showed it down all 4, or even 3 of the 4. So no, not only in a home game.

If the deck was shuffled the odds of getting dealt aces is the same. The cards have no memory.

I just got AA followed by AK.
