Alright, so here's a weird one for ya—693:1 to hit a full house, but what are the odds two players at the same poker table get a full house in the same hand? Seriously, anyone got a poker cheat sheet with that kind of math? 
Here’s the backstory: I was grinding through a Replay Poker session (2NL Zoom, for those who love the specifics) and played a marathon 1,711-hand session. Felt like I was stuck at the table for an eternity, chasing wins and dodging bad beats. Spoiler: I lost THREE stacks. Yep, full house over full house. If Ignition Poker had a feature to replay the worst hands of the night, this session would be the Hall of Fame for misery.
Now, for context, I managed to land 5 full houses in the session—that’s about 1 in 342 hands. But the kicker? Losing to better full houses multiple times. It felt like every poker chip I stacked just disappeared into someone else’s pile. I swear, if it was a game of strip poker instead, I’d have been kicked out for lack of wardrobe.
And for those thinking, “Why not play free poker?”—where’s the thrill in that? Sometimes you gotta risk it for the biscuit, even if it leaves you wondering why you didn’t stick to BetOnline Poker or even just chill with some 3 card poker.
Anyway, I’m throwing this one out there. Do you guys ever feel cursed when it comes to poker hands? It’s like the poker gods decided to give me full houses but punish me for using them! Let’s hear your tales from the felt, whether it's online or at the poker table. Misery loves company, and maybe someone has a poker cheat sheet for getting out of these bad beats!
