I really don't believe in rushes much, at least not online.

there is no difference in online and B&M...

Rushes just simply dont exist

The probability of getting AA is the same whether youve seen fifty 72 or fifty AAs that night

I would absoulutely fold in this situation, regardless of how many prior pots I had just one since the odds for this hand are independent of those prior pots. As an example, let's say you and a friend bet $1 on the flip of a coin with you having heads and your friend having tails. In the first ten tries, it comes up heads 7 times and tails 3 times. On the 11th try, you still only have a 50-50 chance of getting a heads. So therefore, I would fold in this situation based on the odds for this particular hand.

i dont believe this, i realy think poker can be a game of rushes. for example it seems like i'm always hitting my flush/straight when i had to call a big bet on a draw during my rushes. i know the numbers will disagree with me but... poker still has a big element of luck.

There might be times when you catch well, but the logic that "Ive been catching well, I am going to catch my card here because of it" is absolutely faulty.

The cards have no memory, just because you HAVE been getting your lucky draws, doesnt mean you will KEEP getting them.
