Edit: OK this topic was split from another where I was asking about the probabilities of hitting a broadway straight. That topic is here.

http://pokerforums.fulltiltpoker.com/viewtopic.php?t=9031

Now on with the examples of my frustration....

--------
Haha....

shortly into my second tournament of the day.... This happens.

Sitting BB. 3 ahead of me limp into the pot. It gets checked down to this where I bet and everyone folds at the river:

(by the way, not allowing external links in this forum is kind of a pain)

Two random cards that usually wouldn't get play but still it hits.

OK I'm really not making this up. No more than 15 minutes later from the above hand. I get all-in with AK on a different table and this happens:

This is why I end up posting this stuff in the forum because it just keeps happening. Not usually to me... but I'll take it when it does.

haha....

Seriously this might drive me crazy. I just got broadway again. 3rd time in about an hour. It's unusual for me to get it this much but when I'm not getting it somebody else is.

Really does everyone see this hand this much? Or is it just me?

I'll stop posting everytime I see it now but this is just to illustrate how much I see it and why I think it's odd. Here's the screen cap:

I've split up your topic, you can post all your broadways here.

By the way, for those images, if you just use the image tag, you can actually make the image itself appear on the forum:

Hey, split topic... ok cool. Thanks Grip.

The reason I wasn't posting the images in the forum was to save bandwidth usage. Although now that I think about it, these probably won't exceed 100mb per hour. So why not.

Yeah Thanks!!!!!

After customizing my table and background, I really wanted better chips. So I worked those over too.
