| Absolute error? I was over at my brother in laws place this evening and witnessed something that unless I was mistaken, was an error on Absolute poker. He was playing in a SNG, and wasn't involved in the hand. Here's what went down: Player 1 has JsJc Player 2 has AhTd They both ended up all in preflop. The board ended up being all spades. Ks Qs Ts 5s 2s The pot was split between the 2 players, the message said they both had a King high flush. Wouldn't the Js that Player 1 had make his flush a better hand? |

I could be wrong, but I think it would be pretty hard to have a program glitch that would mess up just a specific situation like that. The glitch would be more widespread. |

| If the actual pot was split evenly between the two players then yes, it's a mistake - the player holding Js has a higher flush. I suspect what's actually happened is what MrSticker has described above though: they've just been ambiguous in their wording and delayed returning the overcall to the player with the bigger stack. |

| Not that I'm exactly comfortable leaping to Absolute Poker's defence, but this would have been noticed a long time ago if it were the case. There was an issue a few months back with AP ranking certin razz hands incorrectly, but this is an entirely different kettle of fish. edit: goddammit I used my 7,000th post defending AP /suicide |
