Poll of the Day > Have you ever rage quit digital poker?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I was playing puzzle pirates and the dude got a Royal Flush 8 times in a row

Now, the first two times... I chalked it up to godly luck, but the third and up times.... Iiiiiiiiiiiiii'm pretty sure that's hacking

You have to beat him with a five of a kind.

Ive never rage quit anything.

The only thing I rage quit is rage quitting

Although sometimes I do get upset and I rage quit rage quitting rage quitting

I've never played digital poker, but yeah, pretty sure I'd quit if I suspected another player was cheating. Probably should've made the cheating less obvious than eight royal flushes in a row. What are the odds of that, even?

1 in 649,739 of occurring on a given hand.

so (I think) 1 in 649,739 ^ 8 of occurring eight times in a given eight hands, which is 1 in ~3.18 x 10^46

Yeah, really suspicious, like "it'll never even come close to happening ever in poker" sort of suspicious. Still seems strange that a cheater would make it that obvious.

I've ragequit poker in both Red Dead Redemption and Watch Dogs.

Only in the first two Witcher games, where I save scummed the living hell out of them.

Then bluff the living shit out of the AI, at all times. You'll never lose.

well, there are something like 4.36 x 10^20 milliseconds since the start of the universe. so if you tried once per millisecond for the entire age of the universe, you'd still only have about a 1 in 7.3 x 10^25 chance of it occurring (counting each set of 8 hands as separate from each other set of 8 hands, so ending with 3 royal flushes, and then starting the next set with 5 wouldn't count).

On Facebook? Sure.

Did your opponent also always get them in Spades? If not, you just need to hack it so you always get a Spades RF, and destroy his Clubs, Diamonds, and Hearts RFs.

No you have to get it in each suit with 4 cards - ace + a 2 of S

No.

I think that definitely justifies a rage quit, whether that calculation is accurate or not.

yes

being angry affects the way you play so better to just stop altogether
