What are the odds of THIS PokerStars suckout??
I know that "it's poker", but the following hand has me a little miffed. I am in Seat 1 with a short stack and the blinds are starting to hurt.
Seat 1: 22233 (1345 in chips) Seat 2: big democrat (12232 in chips) out of hand (moved from another table into small blind) Seat 3: Ajames86 (5340 in chips) Seat 4: lazerboy25 (1080 in chips) Seat 5: lordTasse (10743 in chips) Seat 6: deputat (2535 in chips) Seat 7: rvrbelle (3320 in chips) Seat 8: Dave_W_#13 (2015 in chips) Seat 9: 42SOLID (5745 in chips) Ajames86: posts small blind 75 lazerboy25: posts big blind 150 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to 22233 [Qd Qc] lordTasse: folds deputat: folds rvrbelle: folds Dave_W_#13: folds 42SOLID: folds 22233: raises 450 to 600 Ajames86: folds lazerboy25: raises 450 to 1050 22233: raises 295 to 1345 and is all-in lazerboy25: calls 30 and is all-in *** FLOP *** [Jh Js Jc] *** TURN *** [Jh Js Jc] [3d] *** RIVER *** [Jh Js Jc 3d] [5d] *** SHOW DOWN *** lazerboy25: shows [Jd Qh] (four of a kind, Jacks) 22233: shows [Qd Qc] (a full house, Jacks full of Queens) lazerboy25 collected 2235 from pot *** SUMMARY *** Total pot 2235 | Rake 0 Board [Jh Js Jc 3d 5d] Seat 1: 22233 (button) showed [Qd Qc] and lost with a full house, Jacks full of Queens Seat 3: Ajames86 (small blind) folded before Flop Seat 4: lazerboy25 (big blind) showed [Jd Qh] and won (2235) with four of a kind, Jacks Seat 5: lordTasse folded before Flop (didn't bet) Seat 6: deputat folded before Flop (didn't bet) Seat 7: rvrbelle folded before Flop (didn't bet) Seat 8: Dave_W_#13 folded before Flop (didn't bet) Seat 9: 42SOLID folded before Flop (didn't bet) What are the odds of a PP losing to quads made from 3 of a kind on the flop?? George just lucky, I guess. |

-George just lucky, I guess. Actually he was unlucky he got 4 jacks, and he only needed 3. |

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

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? |

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.

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.
