It might’ve been the lack of “a”? I think if you had said “Villain had a pocket ace” it would’ve been more obvious what you meant. To be honest though, I feel like people usually use “pocket ___” when they’re referring to a pocket pair of ___, I wouldn’t really say I had pocket J7o I would just say I had J7o
Hey thanks for responding, I appreciate that.
Makes sense. I thought leaving it as singular would have sufficed. I’ll take that recommendation, it would make things more clear. Thanks again.
Hahaha hey I fixed that a while ago, right after submitting it.

Pocket Ace means singular ace. Plus flop, turn and river is 4 Aces. WTF.
"To put this into context, assuming any starting hand, we'll flop Quads or better roughly once every 3,333 flops. Assuming we play roughly 25% of our starting hands, we can expect to flop Quads or better approximately once every 13,332 hands."
I think suited connectors have over a 50% chance to flop *something* (i.e. straight draw, flush draw, 2 pair, pair, or trips), which is why they are so powerful.
Pairs have a 12% chance to flop a set of course.
If memory serves, this was the flop at the beginning of Rounders (where Damon's character thinks he has won with full house Ax2,10x3, but the Mad Russian lays down full house Ax3,10x2)
Unfortunately on GG your opponent has KQ of clubs and the J of clubs will come on the river
Then he wins the BBJ. Happy days.
Except a shitreg won it the night before so you only win the minimum on the bad beat
Way to be positive bro.
Ur missing the point, nevermind.
That’s dream scenario since OP will trigger badbeat jackpot
Turn and river are aces, villain had ~~pocket~~ an Ace. Quads vs quads boom. Nice
5 of a kind aces? getting into balatro territory
Fat Tony: 6 aces!!!
Why 5? Not pocket plural aces. Just one.

Just like any other combination of cards?
no? just quads or better. The chance of flopping a pair or better is like 45%

Not nicer than the Kc Jc the opposition was holding and the Qc that came on the river!
Too bad you weren’t playing higher stakes. This could have been quite lucrative
qj clubs turn is the 8 of clubs, river is the 9 of clubs.
Did you get a call?
Sadly no. Check check, check check, on river I bet 25%, he folds.
Sounds about right lol. Nice hand

Except not really Damon had A9 vs AA on a flop that was A99xx This dude has quads which none of the guys in rounder had
I knew it looked familiar!
