I play now about 1.5 years on pokerstars for real money and freerolls. Now I dont know if this is pure luck or not and I dont want to sound like a bad loser but I want to ask other players that play on pokerstars if its happens to them a lot...

Last saturday I qualifid for the final round to qualify for the biggest tournament in Holland. I had to finish in the last 10 and I had a ticket...
With only 20 people left I got: AA one player before me gos all in the rest folds... With my hand its an easy call at the worst scenario he has also AA. I see he has JJ...
The flop is: J-8-10 bye bye to my dreams.

Today I again wanted to qualify for the second round:
My AQ vs another JJ
the flop: A5J ; i go all in and see another set.

Today I lost to another set but this time it came on the turn lol.

Now is it me or is JJ an absolute win on pokerstars?
I havent seen so many sets with any other cards on this site I dont know if its just plain luck or their calculator is bugged lol.

I've made more sets on Pokerstars with 44 than any other pair. I've also been dealt 44 more than any other pair, but i looked it up a few months ago in my own records and i made a set 73% of the time i had 44, including when i have folded and would have made the set.

Its just a coincidence really, others will find that certain hands they have played come up more often or that they get beaten by certain hands more often than not. I think AJ suited is pretty good against my AA live or online even if we get it in pre.

Its not as if you're going to fold AA to a pre flop jam with no one else in the pot( I might fold it if 2 others called before me)

You don't want to go shoving over the top of a 3 or 4 bet pre with JJ either because the number say you normally only be called by hands that beat you at the time.

P.S 99 has made the most quads for me but I've had 99 1/3 rd of the times I've had 44

I wish my poker donations were tax deductable {8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
