I thought stars was rigged...
So I'm playing at the casino in a 1/2 game. In between 60 and 90 min. I see about 7 bad beats. AA losing to 55 (55 caled 120 preflop lollll and hit )...and KK beating AA. A high flush off the flop losing to a 4 - 7 full house ( 4-6-7-10-4). My QQ being overturned by str8 off the flop 9-10. and 55 losing to a bigger full house Q 9...9 on river.
Now I'm wondering, this is the equivalent to maybe 15 min on the net. Or if your on a table 90 min, u would see 20 beats at this rate. This put everything in perspective for me and I was just wondering what was anybodys opinion on this. If it happens in real life than it can happen online at a quicker rate.
I personally stay away from cash games, and do heads up and sitngoes.( steps on stars) its the safest thing. I am a gold star and have made about 1500$ since ive played this year. Sharkscope says 700 but they are wrong lol.
NO FREEROLL badbeats plz (that doesn't count).
Let me know what yall think

There is no question online poker is faster and many more hands are played.
I think what a lot of new players forget is the odds of hands like AA winning are high but not 100%. If you play enough online poker you are going to see these hands beaten more often than you may think, but if you keep stats on your own play over the long term the odds work out.
I've checked my own stats after some 50,000 + hands and the odds on each starting hand winning are very close to what the books say. Only checked the big hands though.Team UK Winners Full Tilt Poker Team Cup III

Where can i check my hand stats?
I am curious to see bc I consider myself very unlucky especially in HU sometimes. I take a smoke when it gets rough, punch through some walls at home loll but I usually bounce back after that.

Most sites allow you to save your hand history to your computer. You can look at these but a lot of people have programs which record these and do the work for them. See thread about poker tracker. There are several programs out ther.
