Misscraps,
I'll bet there is some selective memory going on here. If you really want to see if the machines you play are not dealing fairly, you need to do the following:
1) Pick out the occurrence ( or occurrences) that you believe are not random. Pick them out before you start playing.
2) Accurately record the number of hands played and the event(s) in question. Keep track of the successes and failures.
3) Use anyone of a number of statistics to determine if your results are suspect.
For your particular case, I would do the following:
Suspect occurrence -- quad aces from trip aces dealt.
Amount of play -- 10,000 dealt hands of 5 play.
expected # of quad aces -- approximately 10.
expected # of quad aces from trip aces, much less. Trip aces are dealt about every 615 hands. So, in 10,000 dealt hands, you should get dealt trip aces 16 times and should get quad aces 3 or 4 times. Also, why should it matter where the trip aces come from? I've had 3,000 hand sessions where I've had almost all my quads come from holding a pair instead of trips. I think you are confusing homogeniety and randomness.
