What are the odds?

-Typhoon-

Playing yesterday morning, as usual running 2 tables, when i ran in to these 2 hands. The obvious similarities are my whole cards. Then the flop, with 8 clubs, followed by the turn A hearts. I got both hands at the same time of 11.51

ive noticed this a lot, like if club flushes hit, suddenly a whole batch of club flush draws appear, sometimes when i see a flush in a particular suit, and i get dealt two of them as my hole cards soon after, i have a peek at the flop, and it hits loads of times, dont know if its the RNG, like its catching up on a particular variant, running in certain cycles for percentage reasons, or should i just head to area 51 lol

Rich Orford calls that a 50-40 shot. He struggles with numbers.

If I were you, I wouldn't feel too bad about your eyesight.
I think that there's a good chance that he edited his original post to correct it.

I have a very sceptical nature.   :-)))

I did suspect this, and contacted Blackfish (he's a trainee lawyer you know) but he's refused to handle the case so I let it go by.
