I would also suggest that the memory plays further tricks on a player in inverse proportion to the value of the "close, but no cigar" hand. How many 4 to a royals do we get? I would posit that in 'remembering' them, one might easily include hands that end up with 4 to a royal AFTER the draw as well as those where we're dealt the 4 to a royal. Obviously after the draw hands never had a chance to become royals, because the hand is already over. But the sight of the K-Q-J-10 still burns into the brain.
OR the "I never draw the kicker when I am dealt four Aces in DDB". First of all, how often are we dealt the quad A's? And when we do get them, it's only a bit over 25% chance to get a 2,3 or 4. But the sight of the Aces sears into our brain, as though you were dealt them 2 or 3 times a session.
Certainly the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you; if you don't bet, you can't win. -Lazarus Long
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is. -Yogi Berra
There is no such thing as luck. There is only adequate or inadequate preparation to cope with a statistical universe. -Robert Heinlein
