Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 5347433, member: 33113"] Maybe you were eliminated from the other tournaments because you 'got it in good but just got unlucky'... or perhaps it was just a 'standard spot' where the correct play was to do what you did in those particular situations. Perhaps you were lucky on those three occasions... maybe just happened to be on the high side of variance :) OP, I've had some family & friends who acted VERY interested, asking me LOTS of questions (to which I went into detailed explanations about the game, explaining ev, odds & probabilities, how skilled players have an edge, etc. etc. etc.... trying to keep it simple enough for them to 'get it'). I thought they did but then they asked me if I counted the cards :( (as in blackjack... sigh) One replied to me, "Yes I seem to be very lucky at the game too" :( :( sigh [/QUOTE]
