Can you crunch some numbers and give me some odds pls. What are the odds of hitting a set and quads whilst holding two different numbered or picture cards in the pocket.ie any two cards really apart from a pair. Posted by chilling
I think you are about 1000/1 for the quads and about 20/1 for the set (trips as it would probably be referred, I think set is a term generally used for poket pair hitting the 3rd card)
% Range - Total hands - Average % - Expected wins - Hands won
1-10% - 4 - 4% - 0.16 -0
11-20% - 13 - 17% - 2.2 - 0
21-30% - 7 - 27% - 1.9 - 3
31-40% - 3 - 39% - 1.2 - 1
41-50% - 2 - 43% - 0.9 - 1
51-60% - 5 - 55% - 2.8 - 4
61-70% - 14 - 66% - 9.2 - 5
71-80% - 16 - 74% - 11.8 - 11
81-90% - 18 - 84% - 15.1 - 15
91-99% - 18 - 93% - 16.7 - 16
Here is a brief summary of the 1st 100 hands broken down by % favourite in incriments of 10. Basically if tue randomness and varient is holding the red number (expected hands won at that particular range) and the blue number (actual hands won) should be fairly similar.
Basically in most cases the numbers seem to be expected. The main exception is the 61-70% range where I won just 5/14 when the general expectation would be around 9 but in terms of randomness you would expect 1 or 2 of the ranges to throw unexpected results. I was also slightly unlucky to lose all 13 of the instances where I was an 11-20% underdog but again there is about a 10/1 chance that would happen if you run those hands so not a massive shock.
I did run slightly better than I should have by winning 3/7 in the 21-30% range and winning 4/5 in the 51-60% range.
Overall I know it's a small sample size but with most figures holding true to expectation with 1 or 2 anomolies, the figures do seem to be prdictably random!
you clearly don't run like GELDY my stats would make you sick Posted by GELDY
I did run slightly worse than I should have in the 1st 100 hands and that trend is continuing for this batch.
There is a 50/50 chance you will win more or less hands than expected so if it did happen for 2, 3, 4 or even 5 batches of 100 hands then it wouldn't be that unusual.
The paint isnt dry yet and the grass keeps growing. You could do this for the rest of your life with the same or very similar results. Posted by chilling
Yep. Hopefully after about 6 months there will be enough evidence to put the conspiracy theorists to bed.

Do you actually believe you will have a significant sample size in 6months?
variance is variance.Rigged must mean in favour of certain players.I think we need to know the alias of these players your in pots with. Can you start again pls. Posted by chilling
Variance is the effect of luck/chance.
If you are better than your opponents by 0.1% on average (which would make you a fairly good player) then there's still a pretty big chance you are a losing player, due to luck, not to mention commission paid to sites etc. Gambling is fine, if you understand it is still gambling.....no matter how many poker books you read or hands you experience.

There are too many posts i think with percentages being the only way to go.After all, one pot can make or break.Of course its important to know your percentages and pot odds etc, but its not the be and end all. Posted by chilling
Hence I won't draw any conclusions before I've looked at 1000 hands or so

Win % above or below: In all 3 sets of 100 I have run slightly worse than the expected hands won by 2%, 5% and 7% so all fairly close to expected results. All falling on the wrong side for me which is not completely surprising after only 3 samples this is only a 7/1 shot so no conspiracies here.
Expected wins for 10% chance increments: Effectively with 30 samples, 20 of them fell within less than 1 of the total expected hands won which suggests predictable randomness running true. Of the 10 which did not, I fared well in 3 and badly in 7. Again for a 50/50 chance run 10 times, 3-7 would not be an uncommon record to occur randomly.
This is the most interesting and informative discussion that has ever been posted on a poker forum ever!!! --except that one that was posted by Richard Orford, obviously
The tin hat brigade may say the reason these samples are showing not rigged so far is because it's on the forum and the doom switch has been regulated for Graham. #cantwinmate.
