And Full Tilt strikes again.

Well, um ya all that deep tech stuff makes sense, but then why does it get stuck on some hands that are obviously winning way more than they should be,consistently, before moving on to a new batch of hands that seem to never lose?

Humans have evolved to be constantly looking for patterns in their environment. Patterns allowed us to spot and evade predators, find food and identify edible plants in new surroundings. They also allow us to spot our opponent's tendancies at a poker table, and allow smart players to adapt to them. But because of how short our lives are and how little we actually get to see, we have evolved to look for and spot patterns over short periods of time, where in many cases a pattern may not actually be there. If the first 2 people going west from the settlement don't come back, we surely think going west is deadly and should be avoided, even though both those deaths might be completely random(Guy A was sick when he left and Guy B met a bandit going the other direction).

What I'm suggesting is that you're seeing a pattern that isn't actually there, as you have been evolved and trained to do all your life. A7 beating KK happens almost 30% of the time. It happening 3 times in a row happens (if I did the math right) about 3% of the time. 3% is not high odds, but FAR from impossible. So if you watch hundreds of thousands of hands of poker, and watch A7 beat KK 3 times in a row, you are seeing something rare, but something you would almost expect to see watching that many hands. And it has nothing to do with the RNG being hot, or cold, or whatever, it's just a natural occurance over that large of sample.

I know all this is easy for me to say, but trust me I've been there, and I'll be *****ing and screaming the next time it happens to be. But I play enough poker where it will happen to me, and it will suck when it does, but it's not rigged, it's not the RNG getting stuck on a certain hand, it's just that if you get it in as a 70% favorite, 3 times in 10 you will lose, and that was one of those times.

Is ther any program or any way that i can get the outcomes of hands throughout the course of a day, similar to how poker players are tracked, but for hands?

I never said it was rigged,well I have.Take the last 10 serious tourneys I played, I lost 9 of 10 with the best hand.Ok so it's just odds against me,so why do I never hit runner runner? Or the river,I suppose its because I never get in those situations.I will tell ya this I am not a college man but, go to poker stars, sit at a penny table fold every hand for 20 minutes or so no matter what ya get including KK AA whatever.I promise your whole cards will improve,how do I know you ask.Ok a few years back I sent an e-mail saying how I never win always get knocked out its rigged blah blah blah.They replied I was playing to many hands my percentage was off.So i sit down at a micro table folded everything for like 50 hands,i started getting AA,Kk,AK AQ JJ almost every hand at the end.So no scientic proof there but odd,I wish someone else would do it and tell me the results.As for my luck as of late,I know your going lose with best hand once in awhile, just seems to happen to me when i get all my chips in late and ahead.
Obviously it makes no sense for them to stack the deck but the pro at my table was short stack coming in was all but out on at least 10 occasions, came from behind to win,and he wasn't playing monsters I agree with Pan he probally thought the A7 was best.However his 2 5 push that beat 88 or that 7 10 that beat AJ was odd.Sometimes Klink I don't win when I'm ahead at turn and they have a one outer.I have lost alot lately with the best hand,and have grown used to it.
Now if ya wanna see the best hand lose almost every time play a few of the superturbos,I love poker and as soon as our dogtrack gets that cardroom in my online days are numbered,because if we were all playing at someones house and what has happened to me in the last few weeks happened live, there would be gunplay cause every tourney runner runner miracle doesn't happen that much.Thats just my opion.ROLL TIDE!!! WHO DAT!
