 Kd Kc vs Ad A Ahrt

All in pre flop, twice in 30 hands 6 handed on sky poker main event, what are the odds? Im KK

I know it happens, just out of the skypoker main event after losing two hands pre flop aa vs kk

also while we're at it, in your opinion what percentage skill vs luck in standard tournaments (non turbo) im going with 20% skill 80% luck.

when you win its all skill

when you lose its all luck

nice saying..

from my experience all the online tournies i have won have been down to luck mostly with a bit of skill thrown in. would you agree its mostly luck ( i am just talking online not live)

Rigged obv.

Onliine, live, it's all mostly luck.

Over time, (Sometimes a very long time) luck evens out, and then the better players have a small edge.

Internets is having to play AK when u always miss

And just as I say that I win with AK - ROLLTIDE

AA vs KK twice in 30 hands is pretty improbable, however loads of improbable stuff happens all the time.

When you play hundreds of thousands of hands you'll see some pretty improbable stuff happen on a reasonably regular basis. Nothing is more than a 100k-1 shot and I've played 300,000~ hands this year, so in the last twelve months I should have seen the mose mind bogglingly improbable thing happen THREE times.

Seems bizarre this stuff at the time but it's all actually pretty standard, very UL.

This is AA vs KK nice to have RAGS in BB

Nice rags!

Funny both times i had KK vs AA preflop, i really thought i was going to hit a K to make up the injustice - never did though!

SuuPRlim, totally agree the most improbable things happen all the time in poker, part of the addiction to the game i guess. Its a good reason why to play within a bankroll (i don't but might now) so when the improbable happens twice or three times its not a big deal

I've played a few milly hands and never had KK into AA, run goooood

tbf I've never had KK into AA for big money ever either, touch wood x

You and your small balls.

That really surprises me. I play 3 tables max and it happens to me probs about once a week.  Either KK into AA or vice versa.

i think they're leveling Tom.

happens to me daily but i usually find a fold :)
