PokerStars The place where impossible happens

standard

Normal

why is that impossible?

atleast you got it in good...............

U got lucky pre flop, he got lucky post flop it was a cooler

[x] unlucky on that one hand
[ ] impossible
[ ] worth starting a thread about

feel free to add any others

People say the same thing about my local casino
People said and will say the same thing about FTP
People suck at poker.

In b4 arguement over stars RNG kicks off

The universe: The place where the impossible does not happen

This is what is impossible, not your hand.

Whenever this sort of thing happens, you gotta remember there are only 52 cards in the deck, that's not that many. Sure they can form a lot of different combinations, but no one combination is more likely or less likely happen than any other.

K K vs J J

A K 7 J J

is no more unlikely than

K K vs J J

6 2 9 4 Q

But of course one is much more likely to have you yell "RIGGED"

80% of these 205476480 combinations will have you win, while 20% will make you lose.

That's 41095296 ways to lose with KK vs JJ, this way is just one of those. Better get used to it then, hm?

i went AI with a guy mw with TT on Txx and he had 88. turn and river gave him quads. the odds for that i think are around 3/1000 so it will happen once in a while

not sure if this is correct. if one player holds kk and another hold jj, then the chances of a k or a j landing on the board is less than that of any of the other cards (eg, there are twice as many 9s left as ks or js).

I once won 88 vs 99
flop was 98x and turn got me 8

It was couple of years back on full tilt if I remember correctly MTT some kind

That's why I put the suits in. There's 52 cards and only one of each unless there's something seriously wrong with the deck

Do you think either of you made a mistake in this hand? If not, be happy; you both played it well, though I like reraising to 400 a little more.
