How lucky have you been?

[TylerD]

I thought I was running good in my Party session until I noticed one guy get a Royal Flush (where I flopped the nut straight and he turned the royal) followed next hand by flopped quad kings (where I had aces full).

Whats your best high best streak?

[daryn]

i consider myself to be one of the luckiest man on earth, after overcoming incredible odds to actually be born into this world.

everything else in life is easy in comparison

I had quads 2 times in 3 hands. KQs in UTG + 1 flopped trip queens and rivered the 4th, then my BB was KK, K on the flop and turned quads. Not back to back, but close.

Very lucky! I once made quad queens back to back at the
same table at paradise 3-6 O8 a long time ago. But as Ray
Zee said it: I was lucky there were poker games in this
neck of the woods, lucky my opponents played badly, lucky
I didn't run badly at the start, lucky I didn't give up
playing this card game, lucky I learned how to play well.
Now I am really lucky that there are so many newbies, lucky
the markets and economy are turning around and lucky that
there are so many poker sites! Basically, I consider myself
very lucky indeed!

Yesterday I hit 3 quads (A9 with 3 9s on the board, A10 with 3 10s on the board, and JJ with 2 Js on the board) in one 2.5 hour session. I actually made one guy who payed me off all 3 times leave the table.

Then today I had another JJ with 2 Js on the board. Easily the most quads I had in a 24 hour period.

I dont know if this is lucky or not but took the $150 I ended the OIC with and 24hrs playing NL on Prima had $1,500

Lucky? Skill? some of each? who knows LOL

[Chris Parsley]

Okay this has gotta qualify for lucky...
