I havent had pocket AA in about 2 months

[MichaelWaters]

Yep probably about 650 or so hands. Ran into it about 30-40 times and got burnt a few. Cant make a big poker run without getting the cards. Had KK maybe 3-4 times, just not fair every time the cards are dealt i say "ok here they come, its finally my time to get a dominant preflop hand". But it never happens

[Blax0r]

I think not getting AA after 650 hands (assuming 650 hands are one trial) happens around 5.25% of the time, or 1 out of 19 trials. Your situation is definitely uncommon, but not ridiculously rare.

You want some cheese and crackers with that wine?

With your luck pocket aces would still get beat

[pavyracer]

You joined one week ago and you have already played 650 hands and you are not even a Pro. Math doesn't add up.

i heard a rumor that somebody copied off sbr and made their own poker room so people could play while not on sbr poker. so far this rumor is unsubstantiated.

yes so i call all-in right when i get them usually. especially if a few guys have raised and the pot is decent

[spartangreen]

i have had them like 5 times, and have never won once.

First off, if you haven't gotten AA in over a month the first thing that comes to mind is "you must not play very may hands of poker in the average month"

To the point, your chances of being dealt AA is 0.45% or roughly 1 in 215 hands.

And yes, you can make a big poker run without getting big hands - have you ever attempted to play a tourney without looking at your hole cards? I've actually won a 180 man tourney without looking at my hole cards... and I've learned even more about myself and other poker players by not taking a peak. Insteald of playing YOUR cards, you play others - you are forced to play position, learn how to easily expose weak raises, learn the value of 3-4 betting etc.....

Bluffing is one of the main weapons we as poker players have in our arsenal, if you know what you are doing, strong starting hands are not always necessary to ensure a decent run.

P.S - Once at a live tourney, I was dealt AA b2b... now I wonder what the odds of that are?

Pocket ACes seems to happen quite often in the SBR poker tourneys

[ChileCheese]

SBR poker is rigged.

Online poker is rigged

The random number generators they use aren't really random

[LostBankroll]

real live, somtimes 10J of hearts is better than AA.

Last two times I seen AA they both got beaten, somedays you don't want to be in the lead.

[Glitch]

i went out against pocket aces today...that sucked. i wonder if he woulda folded with a lesser hand...will never know.

[Tree Rollins]

You are a bad player. Improve your skill level and you will start to see more pocket aces.

Karma sucks sometimes have you even paid back 1 point to any of your borrowers yet? Starting off on this site as a stiff is the wrong way to start pal.

[excel]

Pocket aces are a curse, consider yourself lucky.

[Ninersnut]

[lukahh]

Exactly, If you're the short stack hold'in pocket AA's, just fuk'in fold! I guarantee you'll get rivered out by a guy hold'in pocket 22's! Pocket Aces don't mean shit with this rigged software, unless you see one on the flop, and even then you'll get knocked out by a straight or flush from a larger stack!

[k13]

On Poker Stars, there was not one day that I did not get Pocket Aces.

You don't need aces to win/play.

[tukkk]

If you are not getting pocket aces ... play lowball

[MichaelWaters]

they still havent made me a pro i put in the app days ago

[milwaukee mike]

i just had aa at the casino last night in a 3-5 no limit game. someone raised to 20, got one call, and then i woke up in the small blinds with aa.
i raised it to 500, my luck has been running so bad i wanted the easy $45 profit


actually it was probably the right move mathematically anyway since the other 2 guys only had 200 or so in chips

[SpreadSniper]

so you had no idea what ur cards were and still won. sorry dont believe it

regardless of what you believe, if you have the means I suggest you try it... if you are interested as growing as a poker player it is a great way to advance.

at least you got them. i finally got them in a 5dimes tourny today. went far in that tourny but i always go out of tournaments right before the final table. im doing something wrong obviously

i know what you are saying i bluff very big sometimes. sometimes ill raise 3x the big blind holding 8-3 offsuit and then after the flop ill do it again, then raise all in. if someone calls with anything im out of the tournament but they have to have a great hand to call there

[SpreadSniper]

been playing for bout 3.5 hrs, have gotten AA 3x (played lil over 600 hands so far), got it all in pre twice, both times TIED to a weak A, the 3rd I won....
