Why does it seem like the cards are not random?
I frequenly find that at certain tables I may make 3 or 4 buy-ins, and I seem to hit my outs and draws repetitively at these tables. On the other hand there are tables at the same level and type where nothing I do can ever work: at these tables I lose my boats to better boats or quads, my 2-pairs are always beaten by straits, my opponant always has the nut flush, etc. I understand that some opponants are better than others, but still i have to wonder how the results can be so different and how it can be a random event that my cards always result in a second-best hand at certain tables.

[ QUOTE ] level? [/ QUOTE ] doubtful consider recent evidence evidence [/ QUOTE ] I've never played as low as 10nl - but I would have assumed that the problems players had at that level were being unable to fold ANYTHING. Talk of folding KK pre - flop or sets post flop shocks me. |

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah I don't know about that. A couple days ago I was testing out a new style at NL 10 that involved mostly open shoving pre with the occasional open limp followed by a flop shove for hand balancing purposes. One guy playing a half stack claimed to have folded jacks preflop because calling would be too dangerous to his br. I think op made a good laydown with the kings there. |
