This was so horrible, probably the worst beat I ever took.

Starting stacks were about 10k for everyone, only a few hands in, no big swings in money yet. I consider myself to be one of the two best players at the table out of 6. 4 pure calling stations and 2 good players.

On the button. Second to act pushes all-in. I look down and have

The all-in does have me covered, but still not much of a decision to me, seeing as how these people will push with absolutely anything. So I call...

So just a typical race situation. I was actually surprised that he had that good of a hand and didn't try to slowplay it some.

Flop


Now I am ahead, and he is dead to a queen.

Turn


Now I am way ahead, as the Queen of hearts can't help him since I would be flushed if it hits.

So of course since this is a bad beat story we all know that the only card in the entire deck that could save him

hit on the river.

I think I played the hand well. Yes it was early, but I had a premium starting hand and was up against a donkey. I think 99% of us would have pushed in that situation too. Either that or we have some super tight players around here

So, 30 minutes of play and I am out. Got to pratice my dealing skills for the next 3 hours though.

Tough Hand. At that you probably wish the Ace never hit on the turn. At least then it is not a bad beat since he had the best hand pre-flop.

You will get him next time.

It happens. You'll win there more than your share. At least he didn't put with 27 sooted and hit two pair on ya.

True enough. Plus this wasn't online, my ******* put it in the wrong section.
