I'm sure it had to happen before but if anyone knows the probability i'd like to know. A crazy hand at todays $1-$2 cash game. Most people buy in for $500 (the max) and the game is really like a $5-$5 (betting wise). Anyway.. to the story.

I was not involved in the hand, I was just watching the play.

S4 raises to $15 preflop, S6 calls, and i think one other caller.

flop: Ah Ac 10h

S4 bets $25.00
S6 calls $25.00

turn: Kh

S4 checks
S6 bets $35.00
S4 raises to $75.00
S6 calls.

river: As

S4 bets $100.00
S6 moves all in for roughly $385 more.
S4 quickly calls.

S4 show Ad 10s, flopped a house, rivered quads.
S6 shows Qh Jh, made a straight flush on the turn.

S6 wins the pot, S4 is amazed and had no idea.

the same % as a two outer with one to come. but pretty darn bad...

this is the worst. same situation, but the str8 flush needs runner runner

That's a Royal Flush, right?

Pretty awesome pair of hands, but it happens.

As Jojo said, it's a 2-outer about 5% chance after the flop. Those come through, oh, about 1 in 20 times.

But I'm not sure how much of a bad beat I call it. Pre-flop they were about a coin flip (AT 55% vs. QJs 45%). Pretty typical race of high-low unpaired vs. 2 middle cards unpaired (half a percent better since they were suited).

OK, OK, I guess it's always a bad beat when you lose with Quad Aces...

(BTW I got a str8 flush to the Kd last night online SnG, other guy folded on the river so I didn't get to show, but got paid off decently.)

too bad it wasn't played on a progressive bad beat payout at a casino.

Check the deck, watch that dealer more closely. LOL, jk.

Pretty hard to fold quad aces, I'd think...

That's a pretty crappy beat.

I've been there before. Lost with quad 10's to a runner runner straight flush. Luckily the guy who sucked me out only had about 90 bucks in front of him.

SonofDad,

I probably would have to have gotten up and take a short walk after that one. Stuff like that seems to happen to me all the time. Get sucked out on.

[nianticcardplayer]

Sucked out ? Yes....but

I hope you mean on the turn the suck out happened.....he hit the royal on the turn....that's where the big bet happened on the turn not the flop while it sucks to lose with the quads his hand was long lost before the river.....he had it on the flop maybe a bigger bet would have moved the other player off of his drawing hand.

On top of that with the bet the boat made yes he is asking for a call, but after the turn shows up he checks other player raises he re-raises and gets called...might be thinking he has the other end of the boat.


The betting after the river, with the other player going over the top all-in what kind of read was the quads getting? Still thinking other end of boat, or did he not see the royal possibility? Also was this in a home game online?
