How did they come out?

Assume that one hand is dealt just before the other, then the probability of that second hand matching the first should be 52*51 divided by 2, since we don't really care which order they come in = 1 in 1326
So, if you always multitable with 2 tables running, you should get this every 1300 or so hands. Once a year for me, or every day for some of the people on here  |

IMO it's just another way to lose your money twice as fast, while paying half as much attention. |

Chips: 203 | | | Re: Craziest thing that's ever happened to me.... This was the first time I played two tournaments (both freerolls) at once.
I won the pot in the left screen with 10's and 9's (9 came on the river). The right screen had an Ace come up and someone had one in the hole so I lost that pot.
Two hands later I got AK at the same time in both games. I can't remember if they were the same suits and couldn't take a screenshot until after I saved the one above, then it was too late because one of the flops came all low and I folded to a bet. |

Chips: 203 | | | Re: Craziest thing that's ever happened to me.... I actually played well in both of those, I was just going to quit the one on the right (which started later) but was able to handle it. Unfortunately I took a couple of bad beats and ended up 14 places out of the money on the left and way out on the right. I kept having my two pair and trips cracked by straights on the river for 5 straight hands (between the two games) |

Yeh, I hadn't realized what those two buttons in the upper right did (the cascading and the windowed), once I figured that out, it made it a lot easier because I didn't have one window covering the other and I could see all the action all the time. |

Chips: 14,006 | | | Re: Craziest thing that's ever happened to me.... Yes, but even crazier. I had AA, same suits on two tables at the same time, and both were cracked by a set of tens with pushes pre-flop. Really. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
