Today at Jokerstars.....zoom poker. I am on the BB ang get pocket aces(both black)
Raise from first position, reraise on the button, and all in by the SB. Icall and the first position raises allin Button goes allin aswell and I call to. pot over 60 dollar.... I feel great as I have aces. Then the cards are shown...... first pos. KK< button also KK, SB two red aces. So in one hand there are two times aces and two times kings...ok how big are the odds. but it gets even better.....flop is 2 2 2, so that makes 4 fullhouses, turn 8 and river here it comes....falls the 4th two... giving me and the sb quats with ace as kicker...... How impossible is this

Well thats indeed a very interesting hand. Would also like to know the odds for such a hand. Nevertheless it paid for you (and for jokerstars, by generating nice rake )
i also think some will say it is a weird hand. But with all the poker sites and all the hands that are played weird hands will happen every day like this. in roulette i seen 15 reds in a row then green then 4 more reds. i was betting on black lol no i wasn't playing i just seen it

Shouldn't your question be 'how small are the odds?' Has to be really short of that ever happening again. maybe 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 or something close. that's just a guess-timate

Strange pocket hands given in the same hand it could only turn out to be also strange table cards. I thought you were going to tell you had lost the hand to some strange unbelievable flush, at least you got half of it. After watching your opponent’s cards, you were still thinking you could won all the pot?

You know what would be strange? If one of the KK's hold up and win the hand (most chances with a str8). Or a split pot. Then you'd be really pissed.

This is the main part of this equation. So many hands are dealt per second that these crazy hands, in our eyes anyway are realy not that crazy afterall!

Looks like a typical hand on zoom if you ask me, i also played tons of similar hands so far...
The bad part is that is really nothing you can do about it. This type of ahnds are also the reason for which you should have at least 50 buy ins on this fast games.

Oh god I feel so bad.. Because I dont know why, but I read this topic "how big are the odds" like "how big are the tits". Pochui I blame you for it...
Btw sick hand, sickest I heard about... But split was good for you I guess.. All in with 4-5 players with aces isnt "ideal" and theres very big probability that someone will be better...
Posted by Mober: Havent ever seen a hand like this before. A screenshot with it would be nice. I dont think you will be able to see something like that again
