Coincidence?...or not?

I was playing two tourneys at once from two totally differ
rent sites and was surprised to see i was seeing very similiar cards in my hand..and on the flop........anyone noticed anything similiar?

Oh please!

I have a hard enough time concentrating on one table in a tourney - especially a fast moving freeroll - - so watching two tables is impossible. The cards are supposed to be dealt by a "random number" system. Most site use that method.

Ask diabloblanco about that.

Not entireley out of the realm of possibility, but neither is alien abduction, which if I had to put a number on, I would say is a favorite to the flops being rigged.

So how many hands in a row did this happen? I notice it all the time, my pocket cards would always be perfect fit for the other tables board.

I rarely see the same or even close to the same cards dealt on two tables.

I suppose if they happen to use a similar random number generator and all the variables are equal it would happen but I am betting on the alien abduction myself.

Break out the tin-foil hats.

Dare ya to chew on them tin foil hats! LOL

What are the odds though?

And what would the odd's be of this happening in successive hands, on different tables at the same time? And if it did happen, what are the odds of it happening on different PC's in the same town, in the same night?

I mean there are 2 tables and 52 cards.....I think I lost count!

:bird:

lol

Ive noticed it myself,its gotta be just a coincidence.Or maybe they are out to get us!!!!!!!!!:argh:

with the amount of hands being dealt on-line the odds are that there are going to be similarities, just from the numbers alone, but i've been finding that no matter what site i'm playing in that im go through periods of getting the same quality of cards (crappy). Its like it at all the sites I play over a period of time. It makes u wonder thou coz my brother and I play at similar sites and he gets better consistant hands than me in the ones that he has deposited money. I have some friends that play at sites who say that after they deposited money that they got better consistant hands. Not to sure whats on the go, but it do make you wonder.
