Rare or not?

Luka22guro · Nov 19, 2022

How often do you see opponents holding the same pocket pair?

Gallarado777 · Nov 19, 2022

Yes, it could be that the same couple comes a couple of times and that's okay

I Live Poker · Nov 19, 2022

There are 13 pocket pairs and 78 pair combos out of 1326 existing hand combos. That's 5.88%. So the recurrence of receiving a same pócket pair is within this percentage. It is very small, but in a short period of time it can appear distorted.

It happens more often than you think, that's poker, you often see strange things.

Not long ago I was playing live and got 99, JJ, QQ and AA in a row. The worst part is that it was 4-handed and I never got paid

Fushicho · Nov 19, 2022

I'd say it was quite rare. I have seen it. But not every session I play, rarer than seeing quads I'd say. But I suppose it depends if your playing 6-player tables or 10 player tables.

It's not so rare, when you play a lot of hands. I mean, i get this situation few times every day (playing 4-5k zoom hands). And you get to see only the hands, that reach showdown. So real number of these hands must be few times higher.

VGShaa · Nov 19, 2022

Definitely not rare but also not common, it happens in different ways. Yesterday, in three tournaments, I saw two players play a pairs of tens, a pair of kings, and a pairs of aces. It's rare when the same pairs comes to me twice in a row.

RoviP · Nov 19, 2022

I think it's recurring, I've seen repetitions of yes cards on PokerStar, I see it in the hole cards and I see it in the table cards.

juan1579 · Nov 19, 2022

If I have managed to see equal hands between 2 players on many occasions, it is not that uncommon for it to happen

Lipki3 · Nov 20, 2022

rarely, but it's normal. It's a shame when an opponent's pair turns into a flush

NightStalker · Nov 20, 2022

Quite rare.

I must be an endangered specimen , because yesterday again I went to play live and got AA I won vs jam AQs then QQ I won full house vs top pair then QQ again , in a row but the last one I found AA I lost almost everything

legend309 · Nov 20, 2022

It's fairly rare especially since a good portion of the time you get pushed off your pair by someone being the aggressor. So you actually see that it's pocket 10s vs 10s less then it actually happens

888NOX888 · Nov 21, 2022

Sometimes I see the same hand in others several times in a row, and this has happened more than once myself.

nerobs9 · Nov 21, 2022

Hi, friend!
There are chances of dropping each combination. I will not write about everything, but I will indicate in percentage terms the chances of falling out if you have two unpaired cards in your hand:

One Pair: 46%
Two pair: 22%
Three of a kind: 4,5%
Full House: 2,2%
Four of a kind: just under 0.1%

Your opponent will quite often have some kind of combination in his hand.
It will be even more often than you think)

OLexZTS · Nov 21, 2022

back to back is normal but don't often
I got it sometimes too.

Academico · Nov 21, 2022

It doesn't mean anything, they are things that can happen and even more, statistics and mathematics, and at times you will see them and at times you won't, but there will always be the chances that this will happen

arshuns · Nov 21, 2022

This is very common. This is not surprising. Everything corresponds to mathematical probabilities. Although it can be a shame when AA or KK fall out in a row not for you, but for others.

pjokay · Nov 21, 2022

I've seen opponents get the same pocket pairs and myself. Sometimes even the same suit (as in that hand to the previous).

pavel1111111 · Nov 21, 2022

it has happend to me pretty often lately

, but in general is a rare shoot that yout opponent to have the same cards as you

alabos · Nov 21, 2022

That hapoen sometimes and its tough too play each hand.....the opponent play safe this time if he see the pocket pair

dorivaldojr · Nov 21, 2022

it happens several times , 2 rounds later , depends on the person

INISHTE · Nov 21, 2022

It may be because of how much I play, but that has happened to me several times lately, I folded, the other went All In and ended up eliminated 😅

I don't know exactly what your question is, but I've had two situations with AA:

in two tournaments I've had it twice in a row;
and one with three times in a row.

Rare or not?
