Why is it that like 40% of the time there are AA you see KK or QQ or JJ...It happens all the time on there..I know you see a lot more hands online therefore you will see a lot of things...but seriously...It happens far to often. I cant count how many times ive seen AA v. KK...its just not normal...Someone please tell me whats happening...Im pretty sure joker stars doesnt fix it..lol..And no im not whining...I love hitting my 1 and 2 outters...lmao..which happens a lot on stars.

i used to get pissed when i first started playing and ran bad but after a few years of playing i have found this......

1. poker sites don't rig hands.
2. you see about 3-4x as many hands per hour on one table than you do live
3. most people play way more tables than one so you so a ton of hands per hour.
4. most people only remember bad beats, you don't remember all the times you when with your hand
5. another is that when you have say AA you aren't going to see a showdown a lot so you forgot about all of the AA hands that you raise preflop and people fold.

*for those people that use HEM and PT3 and others like it they can look at all of their hands and that stats for what should happen and what does happen is about spot on in the long run.

then again when it runs in your favor it is the best time ever. i seriously for like a month straight a few years ago if i had an Ace in my hand i couldn't lose, like no matter what. it was ridiculous.

Isn't it obvious why this happens? Alot of the time you will only see aces against other high pockets or A,K because when players don't have these big hands they aren't going all in as much and as a result you don't see all the aces that don't get called.

For example when someone raises from UTG with aces and everyone folds you don't get to see that they had aces. All you're seeing is the times when someone has JJ+ or A,K and end up reraising them all in. So if you're only counting the times you see aces of course it will be against monsters alot of the time.
