So you are saying that bad beats are your own fault? I think I have a new outlook on poker

unfortunately, no. every site fixes the deck before the deal. it does not shuffle during the hand. your cooler was set from before you saw your first card.

That's what I thought--the RNG gets fed random variables, including player input, and sets the deck up front for the entirety of the hand.

Yes, it was a BBJ table, and yes, I folded after a tight player raised and a passive player 3-bet.

And I love playing you guys who cap middle pairs.

I'm choosing to believe that the continuous shuffle wouldn't have dealt those cards if I had been in.

standard is to call or cap against players from that position, but against a passive 3-bettor it's a turbomuck, if that makes you feel any better. keep playing well and you'll win way more than what you would've won in the jackpot. most people who would've played the TT and hit the jackpot would lose all that money back anyway

murphy's law is stronger than the power of the RNG. it would've just been set over set and he would've lost 12 bets
