    Just realised why you keep calling me Meg..

    Mystic Meg..  Quite a compliment in my opinion..

    You see i have this thing called a brain..

    It is the most powerful computer in the world if you use it properly..

    It allows me to think ahead of the software, and it subconciously picks up patterns and trends that the software developers think I wont see..

    Well they are wrong..  and so are you..

    If you want to redeem yourself with a sensible answer.. please tell me..

    HOW DID I KNOW WHAT THE RIVER WAS BEFORE IT FELL.. ?

    There was about an 16% chance of him hitting so not crazy odds. I got 'done' on Saturday when my villain had only 3 outs (max) on the river. That hurt I can tell you because it was right towards the end of an MTT. 'He' pushed all in after the turn. 
    It happens thats all there is to it.

    same result, but i just knew it was a nine,  maybe the computer knows that a 4 would be even more suspect..

    much easier to put out a nine as i thought it would do..

    There was not a 16% chance before the flop..  he needed the runner, runner, runner runner to beat the aces..

    Could you post the hand you mentioned.. i'd be interested to see it..

    you seem to accept his play quite well if he shoved on the turn with 3 outs...

    strange and dodgy play if you ask me..  unless he knew he was gonna hit..

    It may seem to you that these happenings are not random, yes the mind is a powerful tool but I think in some cases it plays tricks on certain individuals,you seem to remember the times when you get out drawn pretty well, now my " challenge" to you is to remember hands you were behind post flop and won.or even ones when you were ahead and allin and won,i really believe if you take this challenge up it will help you,if not I think you should take advice given previously and take up another pastime ,good luck in whatever you choose to do.

    Jimmy can i ask a question? if the odds of run outs etc are that strange and out of sync with reality then how do you explain the remarkably straight line results players have over thousands of games? If the odds were unreliable surely this couldnt happen?

    I think we should have a new "Riddler" section.

    Riddle me this, riddle me that, how on earth did my aces get cracked??

    You seem to do ok:)

    If you just play low stakes DYM's that is a pretty sick roi, given the massive rake on these games.

    You didn't know. 

    If I post 50 hand histories at random and blank out the river, will you be able to predict what the river cards are in each hand? 

    £5,000 freeroll if you can get 10 or more right. Shouldn't be too difficult on such a predictable rng.

    You want to play?

    Just for clarification Meg, did you actually call out specifically the 9 of clubs? Or just any old 9? Why would a 4 have been even more suspect?

    I think you are my new favourite person by the way. Please post more.
