If it's online then it doesn't work like that. RNG shuffles all the time and if you had called then the flop would not have given you 22

Exactly, so if you are dealt 72 and you fold and 772 flops, don't kick yourself. If you had called, maybe flop would have been AQ8 or something

Normally once the hand folds, I'm more concerned with what everyone else had and how they bet.

Yes! If you want to make progress, you have to take into account your mistakes and get out of them, so you have to follow your hands!

The problem of sometimes starting without betting is that anybody pays his hand, and how will you evaluate ?

yes it is wrong to go with everything with 22 the lowest pair, if the table is not favorable to you certainly who paid you will be winning.

All the time happens. That the magic of poker. If you know the flop after you decide for pay or fold is so easy. Decide when bet or fold depends of strong of your cards. If you had 27 or 49 or AA. You know what must to do.

Yes! If you want to make progress, you have to take into account your mistakes and get out of them, so you have to follow your hands!

It is true that you have to think about your mistakes if you want to be a better player. But the way the hand plays out tells you nothing about your mistakes.

If you have 72 in your hand and the other players have AK and QQ, what do you think if the flop is 772? Do you think you made a mistake by folding?

If you fold AJ in middle position to a big raise from early position by a tight player when you both have medium stacks, and the other player shows AT, do you think you made a mistake by folding?
No, most of the time the player who raised would have a better hand then AT, and you also have many players behind you who might have good hands.

I follow the hand to see if I can gain information about other players. If a player has a straight and does not bet right away, then I know that sometimes that player slow-plays big hands, and I can use that information to help make decisions later.

If you had proof, you'd be a God among us. That's game rigging. I assume you don't have any, right?

How do you know the RNG shuffles after the hands are dealt ?


Does anyone know exactly how the RNG operates?

actually if you watch the video from pokerstars about how they shuffle the cards you would find that instead of actually shuffling every card is assigned a number from 1-52 then the computer randomly generates a number and deals that card so if the random number was say 37 then it would deal the card which had been assigned this number

It happens, to have a folded pair and the flop comes something very good! It is a very annoying feeling!

I've always wondered about that. Do you know this for sure with research or is this just your opinion?

I usually do but sometimes I wish I didn't, lol!

True and notes go a long way as well...

Being a grinder means sticking to your play...
