Serious question: how many deuces in the deck?
I am asking, because today i played with a deck with 5 of them! Long story short: board was 2-2-x-x-2 and an opponent showed another 2. All good so far, except one detail: i had a friend on the table who told me "how is this possible, as long as i folded a 2?!"

So, i'm asking again: how many deuces in a deck?

I can think of three possible answers:
1. A dealing control RNG malfunction.
2. A wrong graphical representation (card ID doesn't match card graphic)
3. A "hidden" routine that controls the outcomes on big pots (and on that hand pot was big).

Any other ideas?

2.) It's likely that. Thanks for reporting the issue we'll take a look.

I really hope its not number 3. Thats always my worry with online poker, I get rivered about a 1/4 as much in real casinos.

There's no chance that it's 3.

Got a screen shot of your friends 2?

Without it, I refuse to believe he had one at all. Anyone who wanted to post something like this would really need a screenshot of sorts to back up that there was more than 4. Learn to report :(

Unfortunatelly, i don't have a screenshot, nobody expected that. But i don't have any reason to mistrust my friend. Also, i think that deals history should be stored somewhere on servers, so relative easy to be checked.

Aside these, as long as you have no idea how many reports i made before, keep your "advice" for yourself!

This is a graphic issue.

The "Shown" cards... are actually from the last hand. while the cards on the table are the actual shown cards.

Test it for yourself. Show a hand, then muck the next. The cards on the screen will be the cards shown in the previous hand.

No K! I was actively played that hand and was on showdown.

JackRbbt...Folded cards will stay on screen while spectating the game. Once the river showed the extra 2, he should've been making a screen shot. No one is saying ur friend made it up. We are just saying that he may have been mistaken. According to recent studies, "90 percent of all witnesses tend to be wrong in what they saw." It's all good. Keep on keepin on brudda! Enjoy and see you at the tables.
