    Don't get me we wrong I was well aware that we were in a coin flip when the cards went on their backs. I posted this hand more for the roller coaster of pleasure and pain that the flop first gave then the runner runner aces took away at the end. This hand was very deep in one of the main events too which made it smart just that bit more.

    Only winning 29 times out of 553 when going all in pre with a better hand? That's a win rate of just 5.24% which I would say is incredible - a little better than 1 win out of every 20 contested shoves on average. Please post the details, in an excel spreadsheet, and I may find some time to do some analysis on them for you.

    I will need:

    553 lines, each one detailing your hand, opponents hand and of course the game ref for validation purposes.

    From these it's fairly easy to determine your worst run of losses, and calculate the probability of this happening. If, as I suspect, the results fall well wide of statistical norms then you may just be the person who can prove that something's not as it should be.

    Post again when you've collated all of your data.

    I fear your fears are well founded . . .

    Still we can live in hope? Not about to bet my pension on it though.

    I used to really enjoy this site and have played here for over a year now.
    Im well up on total profit/loss however, I totally agree that sky poker has become very strange in terms of which cards come down and which players win on very unrealistic calls, far too many times.
    For me there seems to be a huge bias against small stacks when tournies are getting towards the interesting stages.....
