Did it again today running free play on a lousy 8/5 DDB game. 4 ladies followed by this...




Any can fill me in on how to shrink the picture, I'd be thankful.

What you're so giddy about isn't all that rare.Depending on the game, quads happen about once every 420 hands. That means once every 420 times you get a quad you'll get another one on the very next hand.If you play 630 hands an hour, you'll get a quad once every 1.5 hours on average --- so it will take 280 or so hours of play to get two of them back to back. A lot of players play considerably more than that every year.It's not something that happens to you every day or even every month, but it's hardly a "once in a lifetime" event either.

Wow Bob Dancer, how many pins did it take to poke all this man's balloons? He is happy with what he won, and I'm happy for him. Why do you have to be so negative?

Congratulations Wilcox. I've been playing off-and-on since 95 and can only recall two instances where I hit back to back quads. I'm glad you beat the odds and continued good luck to you.

That was pretty quick to do it again! And Aces with kicker to boot! Before hosting the pic on the site there should be an option to change the size under the "auto resize" dropdown menu, If you choose 640x480, it will fit will for this and other message boards.

Once while playing a $1.00 All American at Caesars AC years ago, I was dealt 4 Kings in the first 4 spots left to right. 2 Hands later, again dealt 4 Kings, same spots and I swear to this day in the same suit order, but i couldn't be sure, because who knew that was going to happen?
