First time post...long time reader. I am just wondering if anybody noticed anything funny about absolute poker and/or what your opinions are of the site. I will wait to here your responses before I post my experience, because I dont want to skew them. Thanks for the help

I think I may know what you are getting at, since I play at Absolute quite a bit and hear the table chatter. At least in the 4 card games (O/8 and Omaha) some players are convinced that quads and straight flushes are dealt at Absolute more often than chance would suggest.

I have not done any hand history analysis myself which would suppport or reject the Big Hand theory. However, because just about everytime quads or a straight flush are seen in these games somebody at the table comments on the Absolute 'rumor', the theory somewhat perpetuates itself.

Is this what you are referring to or is it something else?
