I think I will go play lotto. one in 9,528,128 odds of this happening, if I am correct.

As always, the names have been changed to protect the ignorant:

EDT 2003
Table Card Room Table 1565 (Real Money) -- Seat 8 is the button
Total number of players : 2
Seat 5: Player 2 (1940)
Seat 8: Lucky Me (6060)
Lucky Me posts small blind (250)
Player 2 posts big blind (500)

You are not. First, if you want to just have the odds of getin dealt
AA on a specific 3 hands in a row, it would be 1 in 10,793,861 (looks like you enormously used 212^2 instead of 221^3).

But, you probably only start countin after the first AA, so it would only be
1 in 48,841 in that case.

ummmmm, does the name change mean anything when you can look up the results with all of the other information that you provided? Or don't they provide hand history to tournaments?

While I'm on the subject- Can you request hand histories on hands that you AREN'T involved in? Just curious

Because the 2 times I had just called the SB, I had monster hands & he was fatally catching on. So, i abruptly ajdusted strategy to basically a raise or fold scenario. Plus, I encouragingly flashed the AA previous hand. (& didn't the hand before that). And, the last time I showed a strong hand for free, I soon riased the SB right away, he re-madly raised and I folded. He was a smart player who could see certain "patterns" developing. I merely played into what I hoped would be a pre-conceived notion on his part.

Add to that the fact that he was very short stacked, and would have to make a move eithewr this hand or next.

I just chagne em out of courtesy to players. Actually, I thought "player 2" was a very good player. But, on occasions when I may post something an opponent (or I) did that was stupid...I don't want to public embarrass them, or worse yet, scare them away from reproachfully playing again.

Besides, 99% of the idiotic things I see done at tables are done by me .
