If you'd bet at any point before the river I would've folded.
Twice in two days i've suffered that fate. The day before i had 10 8 suited and flopped 10 8 8. Limped through to the Jack on the river. Went all in and the guy had pocket J's! Thing is, he would probably seen me if I had gone all-in any sooner so I was never going to win that hand :cry:

Cheers, I'll take a read later,

Edit - point 2 I think says exactly what I was saying regards a RNG.

I'll read the rest later, but it cannot " be rigged " for x person or seat to win.
What happens is the RNG decides the seat order, the reason you'll see runner runner on turn and river to bring a player back from the death on a 9% win chance etc.
Those numbers havent just been pulled out there and then. There's thousands of hands at a tame.

Theyll be lots of google or chat room experts who try and tell you how it works, but you should be able to read how it's done on most websites.
William hill tell you exactly how it works once you dog a little onto it.

Quite s good read.
Ran just like a roulette machine in a bookmakers, with RGN, the number has already been found and whether you'll win or lose as soon as you press play ( or deal in this case ) the rest is just a computer playing a video of a ball spinning round then landing on the number before it says win or lose.

I've arranged a game for tonight on the club, the details are below.
I can't make it, so there should be a better chance of people cashing if the quality has decreased ;-)
hopefully you'll still get 8-10 players

Good luck

8.30pm start
$11 buy in
freezeout
5k chips
10 minute blinds

I'll certainly accept, however 4 of our group are having a night off tonight woth footy being last might, so might not be enough to go ahead, I'll cancel tonights so you dont end up playing with 4 , and hopefully get back upto 10 for next week 👍🏿

I'll keep it open, but they may only be 4 or 5 play might be a poorer game.
Once the quality departs, may aswell play bingo.

We are back playing live in a week or so, so online will probably cease for me.
Much better game live IMO, and where the odds are truly represented.

I'm on DIY duties this weekend, starting tonight so can have sunday off for the footy.

Im playing a live game next saturday all day and night with beers, so probably wont play next Friday either.

Might squeeze one in the week after, but we prefer to play live, and interest has been falling with how the online set up works.

Will keep you posted if we can get 8 ish again.
Theres a split, some that want to play a few quid for fun and to pass time, and those who want to chuck lots of money in so it's a proper game worth their time.

The cheap games interests the bingo players who just think fcuk it I'll call with nothing. But then theres not 7 or 8 that will play cash or high stakes, so its a catch 22 :(
