In my current session of poker I have been dealt 119 hands...

and in those I have been dealt pocket aces 7 times...I have had other pocket pairs 9 other times..

Needless to say I am having a great day... lost the pocket aces once


I just can't imagine that in 120 hands I have been dealt....more than 10% of them have been pocket pairs

Well, On average, you will get a pocket pair 10.71% of the time...not that big of a deal.

However, that many rockets?!? That's crazy!
