I've been playing Draw poker on Planet Poker lately.
I've played for a week and probably logged 20 hours so far.

I'VE SEEN AT LEAST 15 QUADS!!!

is this even realistic?

just wondering.

It sounds about right for "internet poker."....yup!

Stranger things happen on-line, but also keep in mind that 20 hours of play will add up to alot of hands getting dealt out, too. Way more than if this was in a "live" card room. I've seen things like that at Paradise too....so I'm sure it doesn't just occur at Planet Poker. As far as it being realistic?....It is for the internet!

It is certainly not impossible. Last night at the B&M I saw the same fish get quads twice in one hour. Online you get twice the hands and in 20 hours I think seeing quads 15 times is really unlikely, but not so unlikely as to be suspect.
