I swear that william hills fix the flop so a split pot is very rare - on at least 5 seperate occassions i have gone all in with the same hand as the other person - and lost to a flush. Is this regular for other players or am i just damn unlucky??
The latest one - all in on a As and he Had Ah - and guess what - running clubs four of em to knock me out of the STT!!!
This has happened before as i say - and its beginning to hack me off now lol. Surely it was the correct decision to go all in (i was short stack about 600 chips left).
Is this a common occurance or shall i start wearing some lucky socks?Huh?

If William Hill was rigged they would want more split pots, not less. The reason being with a split pot only William Hill win's.

It was meant as a joke, i am sure the poster was just venting, and i imagine doesnt harbour any serious concerns about the integrity of Will Hill giving people 4 runner flush's when they are up against the same hand.

As another blondite pointed out, this would result in less rake for the house.

I remember being all-in against Tikay once in a sizable pot. I smugly turned over aces. So did he.

He was even more smug though when he hit runner runner runner runner flush.

I wasn't laughing at the time.

As it was an STT, I imagine that Will Hill don't give a hoot about the rake issues for one individual hand.

You played the hand correct, keep playing the same way, it shall even out in the end.

My three pence worth.

I had the opposite experience, split pot after split pot. I was getting really pissed off...







Then I realised it was Omaha Hi Lo Grin
