Okay, normally you set your pocket pair once every twelve flops or so, but I have a strategy for IMPROVING these odds, and it's dazzlingly simple:

Play against me.

I have noticed that -- using the above strategy -- you set your pair approximately 2/3 of the time.

Isn't that great? This is a really useful strategy, for example, when I'm all-in with my aces before the flop and you're holding queens or eights.

don't complain, you know luck will even out on the long run man

btw odds of flopping set is aproximately 1/8 , i think you got confused

with 12.5%.

keep playing....luck will eventually even out to your favurite.

LOL... funny post. I need to try out the aforementioned strategy, thanks LeFou! (Where do you play and when and what's your handle? I gotta try out my new strategy!)
