Default Just saw a guy flop quads on consecutive hands ... wow.

First hand he holds 99, flop comes 99J.

Second hand he holds A5, flop is 555.

I wonder what the odds of flopping quads on consecutive hands are ... gotta be really long! I don't think I will ever see that again.

Teh odds of this situation, flopping quads with a PP is 1/400. THe odds of then flopping quads with 1 in your hand and the flop the other 3 is 1/9600.

Thus the odds happening back to back are 1/400 * 1/9600 =

0.00000026041666666666666666666666666667

In other words you would need this situation to occur

3,840,000 times for this to happen once (in statistical probability terms).

When I first started playing holdem I flopped quad A's on back to back hands on stars. Think that will happen again? LOL
