Default Anyone know poker? FAO Mark...evidently... :)
How normal is it to be screwed over with pocket aces 11 times in an hour and a half?!

This is, other people having the aces, and hitting trips 8 times out if the 11...

Cash tables, and it was william hill.


Im positive that the odds of that happening are like a million to one...just the way it happened, straight after each other, as soon as I hit £200 profit...plus all the trips...am still so pissed off now. Played like 5 hours to get that money.

Bad luck :S Cash tables are pretty risky though really, but you got very unlucky

Makes me question the RNG though...it just seems so...impossible, for it to happen that much in such a short time, Ive had my share of bad beats, I know they happen, but I have never ever seen anything like that in my life.

Do the other players get like loyals loads or like you have a flush and they have two-pair and they only have one out on the river (assuming Texas Hold'Em is the game) and they hit it?

Royal Flushes are supposed to be very rare.. If you are seeing them often then something is definately wrong.

Professional Poker is the **** they play on Channel 5

The Elite is the home to speed run competition for GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark.

Wouldn't call that pro

I call it 'pro' if someone can make enough money to live on by playing it.
