The lucky avatar strikes again!!!

[A_PLUS]

I posted a while back how pocket 8's have been insanely lucky for me since putting them in Charlie's hand in my avatar. That post was quad 8s in back to back MTTs.

They were my only quads of the past 2 months.

Still doesn't change the fact you're going to land on your butt when Lucy offers you the football to punt.

I've said more than once the Stars RNG is insane. The good thing is it doesn't know WTF it's doing either.
