Default A question about the longrun.

I guess a little bit of a whine too.

I understand that your "luck" balances out over thousands upon thousands of trials. If someone calls getting 6:1 on a gutshot and makes it 5 times in a row, they are going to lose money after enough times. But what about trials that are extremely rare?

I had 99 and got 220 big blinds in on a A95 rainbow flop against 95, and he caught running 5-5. I've played somewhere along the lines of 400-600k hands of poker and I have never gotten 220bb in against someone drawing at running quads. So how does that balance out in the longrun?

Maybe I should move up to where they respect my raises.
