RhinestoneCowboy 2 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 If those is the odds live, what are the odds online? Link to post Share on other sites
LongLiveYorke 38 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 It's only really meaningful to tell the odds of getting AA after just having been dealt AA. So, the odds are the same as the odds of getting AA: about 1/220 or so. Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyJoe 0 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 happened to me in a home game tourney, back to back AA, called allins preflop both times, lost both times to rivered inside straights, what's the odds of that? (rhetorical question, please nobody figure it out.) Link to post Share on other sites
mtdesmoines 3 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Odds of getting AA over KK 5 of the last ten times you got KK? Yeah. It happened again. Sick.And again. 6 of the last 12 times I've had KK, I've run into AA. The only time I flopped the set, the AA flopped his set, too. I've also had 8 consecutive naked flush draws hit against me, all-in, cards face up. Is this what they call variance? Link to post Share on other sites

mtdesmoines 3 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Break the swing, fold preflop Funny thing was I had a swing last summer where I flopped a set of kings four times in a row when I got them, and lost to flopped straights every time.

Sefaje 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 All odds (in live games) are affected by the dealer.In one spectacularly beautiful instance, at a home game I used to play, a busted player who was skilled with a deck of cards (as in he knew how to shuffle etc very well, not good at cheating/sleights) became permanent dealer. On his first deal, the CO received AsAc and raised preflop, winning the blinds and showing his cards. The other losing cards were in a new order, but as the winning hand, AsAc was placed back atop the deck before the shuffle.Riffle, Cut, Riffle, Cut, Hindu, Cut.Next hand, an UTG +1 or something close raises, an MP calls and the new CO re-raises large. Everyone folds, mixing the losing cards, and the CO hands his 2 cards to the dealer after everyone else (naturally.)The dealer Riffled, Cut, Riffled, Cut, Hindu shuffled, and Cut. (I have a habit of watching everyone who handles the deck when I play live) Deals cards...3 Limpers before me in the CO, and I look down at... As Ac. I immediately realized that the CO 2 hands ago showed 2 black Aces, and the CO the hand before made a strong re-raise PF. The hand plays out as normal (I won on the turn with no showdown) and I made sure that my 2 cards ended up on top. I figured at the time that this was the most likely way that this could happen, assuming it had happened.)Next hand comes around and everyone folds to me. I had K9 and decided to test something. I raised big (I didn't mind throwing away a hlaf a dozen BB's, we were playing $1/2). Sure enough, the CO looks at his hand and after thinking for a little bit, raises me. I sighed and then said "You're so obvious when you have Aces. I'm so confident in this read that I can fold my Kings here. In fact, I bet I even know that they're the two black aces." (Or something to that effect, probably more drunken swearing) And I flipped up the K i had and smiled. Hahahaha.The CO then accused me of looking at his hand somehow, then I explained that the AA had moved its way through the cutoffs. I guessed that the dealer had been so consistent in his shuffling that he kept giving the Top 2 cards from the to the cutoff each hand. The other hands were being folded and mixed with burn cards, so everyone else's hands were changing besides whoever was in the CO each hand.Our dealer said that he had a set order that he always used to shuffle. We decided to test it and deal one face up. He did his riffle/cut/riffle/cut/hindu/cut sequence, dealt the hand face up, and the cutoff had... Ace of spades... 7 of hearts. The ace of clubs was a little off and went to the SB this time. But it was magical while it lasted. Link to post Share on other sites
