I just had the worse badbeat of my life.

It's a weekly 10 man tournament. 8 guys left. I get pockect aces and am
in 2nd best position. Pre-flop two other players left. 25-50 blinds.
Player one raises 300...I raise him 600....third player raises
me....everyone ends up all-in and flips cards...

AdAh vs
KcKs vs
QhQc

Flop....8d, 4d, 7c
Turn....9d All I need is any card jack or lower or a DIAMOND
River...Qc

The lowest pair wins with a set on the river...winner had three outs to
win...all I needed was any card jack or lower, an ace OR a diamond.

horrible aint it?

My worst bad beat was when a $53,000 bad beat was hit in Hold-em , but I was
playing Omaha at the time

Correction....Qs flopped on the river, he had only two cards in the deck
that could save him

I was playing 4/8 Holdem in Mesquite a week or so ago. It was capped before
the flop. By the river there were only two players. One had the best hand
before the river but got beat. I don't remember what the winner had. But
the loser had 92o and yes, called preflop even though it was capped. A 9
flopped and he had the best hand until the river. But after he lost he
slammed his cards down and went for a walk in a huff mumbling about a bad
beat. I sat there silently wondering how anyone could consider it a bad
beat when you start with 92o in a capped pot.

Flopped on the river? So he had quads, with 2 Qs. I think u have a nice
lawsuit here.

Actually each player only had one card that could save them. Kd or Qd
would give you the flush. A bad beat but you're a lucky guy if that's
the worst you ever get :)

Try AA in early position in a $10-20 game. Raises. Called in BB by
K9o. OK, the guy IS in the BB and raiser is NOT a tight player, and he
is probably too aggressive much of the time. The call isn't bad, IMHO.
Not against me.

Flop: A-9-3 rainbow. BB check-RAISES, gets re-raised and calls. Maybe,
NOW he should know he is beat.

Turn: 9 BB check-raises AGAIN and gets re-raised, calls because the
pot is soooo big.

River: 9 BB bets out. AA calls because BB might fall over dead and
muck his hand before showing the winner (dead people cannot win hands
at Foxwoods) BB shows down his winner.

AA mucks his hand face down. Resists the temptation to muck it face up
or throw things. Has had it carefully 'splained that his permit to
carry does not apply in poker room. Which keeps him from shooting
HIMSELF.

Goes home. Down approximately what he (I) lost on this hand. I would
probably be able to play on without tilting if that hand came up now.

If you want to get strict about semantics fine, but you know what I mean.

No, he had a set of Queens. He got his third queen on the river....there
were only too outs for him. A queen of diamonds and I still would've won.

No.... the guy with the Queens only had 2 cards that could save him.
The guy with the kings only had two cards that could save him also (some
else had folded another king)

I on the other "hand" had the winning hand before the river and only need
any diamond OR any card lower than a K or Q.

Would you have felt better if the queen had come on the flop? If that's the
worst bad beat you've had, you probably haven't been playing very long. Get
used to it. You'll see a lot more like this. Wait until you have your AA
against 77, flop comes Axx and turn and river are 7s. Then you can holler
bad beat!

You SOB! :-) That exact bad beat just hit me this last weekend.

Joeker

Yes, I would have felt "better" if a queen had come on the flop.

But considering how many outs I had compared to the winner, that is the
worse bad beat I've had an have been playing for 4 years.

Well, you had 2 outs to lose the pot (the non-diamond K or Q).
That's 20-to-1.

If that's the worst beat you ever have taken, you must be living
quite the charmed life.

Let me tell you the short version of the 800-to-1 longshot that
beat me the other year; Me: KK, Him: 22, Board: K-3-3-2-2.

Then there was; Me: KK, Him: A7o, Board: 6-K-6-6-6.

Your bad beat, however tragic doesn't seem all that bad to me. I
spent years housing poker at a local casino and have seen some
doozies...but one always stands out when talk of bad beats comes up.

The game was 5-10 Omaha Hi and the table was an even mix of rocks,
shooters and calling stations. A late position rock(And by rock, I
mean like the STONE OF GIBRALTER) makes it 3 bets pre-flop, which
after watching his play for quite some time...meant to me that he had
very few possibilities other than AAKQ double suited or something
similar. When the smoke clears pre-flop there are five players to see
a flop of As-Ad-4d, a lunatic under the gun bets out, cold called by
an old woman who had not folded a hand before the turn all night, and
finally raised by the rock. Both other players cold call and the turn
is the 8h, check, check, bet and only the old woman calls. River is
the 3d, the old woman picks up her hand, looks at it and checks, the
rock thinks momentarily(somewhat certain he is still much the best)
and fires out a bet...the old woman pauses for a second and simply
smooth calls. She flips over her hand before the rock and says, "I
have a full house"...the rock flips over his hand showing quads(AAKQ
as predicted) and gets ready to scoop the pot, when the dealer looks a
bit closer at the womans hand....2h-2c-2d-5d and says, "You don't have
a full house ma'am, you must use ONLY two cards, but you do have a
straight flush." She had no clue that 3 deuces in her hand was not a
good starter(especially cold-calling 2 bets), didn't realize that she
hadn't made a full house on the flop AND had no idea that a straight
flush was a good thing. Too funny for words, never seen any look more
stunned than the guy with quads...to this day I never complain about a
bad beat in respect.
