that was the best line of em allI believe this may be the single best line regarding poker ever spoken. -
smash system, q's and comments for people using it.
MLMarkland replied to FerretKing's topic in General Poker Forum
Indeed. Set over set is like 1/167, now compound that with the odds of this occuring between exactly two players, one using the system and one, the above poster, and it really isn't a big concern. Same goes for nut flush vs. second nut flush. -

My post is marginally useful since it empirically examines the UV of your post. -

Conjecture, assumption and hyperbole does not rise to the level of usefulness. Whether there is any doubt in your mind "that the system makes more consistently, at the .5/1 and lower limits," is not a useful statement of fact. Negative Usefulness Value for this sentence. Making reads is certainly a losing proposition at the lowest limits, but it is not an impossibility at certain times. Additionally, calling people fools has -UV. Hyperbole degrades usefulness. -UV. I'm not sure what part of this statement is useful. -UV. -

Pupsta, your posts are the most useless posts on this forum, as far as I can tell. Congratulations. -
This isn't exactly a terrible beat, since you'll lose this hand around 68% of the time. It is a frustrating beat, and you did have the best of it when you went all in, but he still has a 32% shot of beating you, plus whatever percentage of the time you will lay down tptk, or pocket pairs thinking he has an overpair to the board. Not a great bet on his part, imho, but still not a horrendous beat, like someone catching a two outer with one to come.

Aren't the odds of being against an overset 1/167? -

I'm pretty confident in my NL game in general, just trying it out for a few k so I can comment with experience rather than ignorance. He wants to turn NL players into robots because he believes that's all we are, or more specifically monkeys throwing poo. Don't you recognize a s hitty infomercial when you see one? Mark- you're a smart player. Realize that this reduces you to a wittless readless monkey throwing poo.Not planning on using it again, but I don't feel right commenting on something unless I've tried it. -

Figured I'd give the system a try instead of going to sleep. Most exciting thing that has happened so far, Norton's anti-virus popped up once. Will keep you posted and let you all know if that happens again. -
You don't.I know it's a pretty good hand in omaha high, but didn't know about O8, thanks custom, you da man.Just answered ya. What about limping with it in late position?

You notice it when it happens.When it doesn't happen, you dont think about it.True, but I still don't think I see enough hands for it to be particularly noticeable.

QQ vs. 10-8 in this situation is about 77% to 23%JJ vs. 10-8 in this situation is about 75% to 25%Q10 vs 10-8 in this situation is about 75% to 25%And, 10-8 vs. 10-8 is clearly a draw, unless your 10-8 is suited to at least one on the board in which case, the odds range from 52% to 60%

dandruff, annoying or really annoying?

I'll kick it off. I'm sorry I called you an ass Smash. I just get frustrated with the intentionally mean crap, which doesn't justify throwing the same shit back at someone else. -

I have no clue if you're serious Smash... but if you are, there are better things to do with your time than bang on someone, even if he did something to you. -

Smash, I do not understand you... Isn't your post a bit of an overreaction Smash? I can't wait to hear your opinion... again... and... again... and... again... Smash, you have the charisma of a censored log of elephant shit Foil is a good word choice here actually. Bonus points for making fun of his supportive girlfriend. BONUS! ESPN also edits broadcasts. Woe betide the day you end up on ESPN Smash.

I'll start tracking when it happens and the conditions, etc.I do believe if the occurences are not common among at least a few players on the board, then it is simply a random clumping that I happened to witness...ie, if no one else has noticed such a phenomenon, then I am simply one person out of hundreds of thousands who did notice a random clumping.This is the most likely answer... but it still is a bit nagging... it makes me wonder if there's a fundamental flaw in the random number generators that yields strange clumps of results.Note to all tinfoil hat wearing paranoids. This has nothing

The dual hand phenomenon has been unbiased as towards premium hands.I've noticed it before with the hammer and with other trash hands.Additionally, I have noticed coordinated combinations of 7 cards.By this, I mean, that at least 5, sometimes 6, and sometimes 7 of the same cards appear on my hand and on my board on two tables at once.Now, maybe I just play a lot of online poker...And it is true that I don't notice when the same combination of suits appears,And it is true that I don't notice when all 14 cards I can see are completely different,But...I don't think I've played enough hands to qua

Actuary...I understand how the system works, I've done some programming.I also have a fairly good grasp of statistics and odds.But the similarity in hands across mutiple tables at multiple times is definetly not easily dismissed.This is not the same as AA twice in a row.This is...10-3 three times in four hands total across two tables J-10 at two tables at the sime time3-3 three times in four hands total across two tablesAA at the same time at two tablesWithin 24 hours.I understand the fuzzy nature of all of this.But it still strikes me as odd.Yes, given a trillion coin flips, heads will pop up

I flopped a set of Js, got beat for all my chips to a river flush. Feel your pain. I am out.

btw spade, you'd be proud,I went all in with a chance to be a big chip leader in the final stages of a PLO8b tourney. Unfortunately, my made nut flush and nut boat draw got beat by a suckout boat draw on the river.
