What are the odds of a PP losing to quads made from 3 of a kind on the flop??

George just lucky, I guess.

Actually he was unlucky he got 4 jacks, and he only needed 3.

[/ QUOTE ]"George" is me. Lucky because there is less chance of losing than winning, especially that badly.

Please get familiar with the forums on 2+2, there is one called BBV which is where this thread belongs.

and that, in & of itself should be a bit of a lesson for you....even if the probability of something happening is less than 1% - it's still not really all that uncommon in the long run. It's hard to impress (unless maybe you lose your house over it).

Re: What are the odds of THIS PokerStars suckout??
 

So you more experienced players - why does it feel like I keep losing hands where I'm favourite?

Apparently by making bets with +EV, I should be doing better in the long run. But it seems I've had a long streak of losing hands where I'm favourite - apparently this might turn one day. True?

Re: What are the odds of THIS PokerStars suckout??
 

Bad beats stick in your mind a lot more than when you win as a favorite. Get your money in when you are ahead and in the long run you will be fine.

Re: What are the odds of THIS PokerStars suckout??
 

you were 90 to 10 favourite, or to be more accorate 88,5% to 11.5%... so it's definately a bad beat, but it's not SICK.
