I keep getting caught on the river 100% of the time even when I already have the nuts before the river comes.
Just like to know what is the percentage of losing to the river.

    I am 100% sure that you do not lose every showdown you have on the river.

    There is no clear answer to that, as it varies every time, depending on a) what your hand is, b) what your opponent's hand is & c) what the river card is.

    It's like asking "how long is a piece of string?".

    What we can be absolutely sure of though is that you do NOT "get caught on the river 100% of the time".

    You get beat on the river, after holding the nuts on the turn, "sometimes", but it feels like it happens a lot. That's "selective memory" at work.

    Do you check a lot or just have a lot of loose players on your tables?
