I was not in the hand so it does not qualify as a bad beat story.
Early in the tournament I see 3 players go all in preflop.
Player 1 Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gifQ /images/graemlins/club.gif
Player 2 K /images/graemlins/spade.gifK /images/graemlins/club.gif
Player 3 A /images/graemlins/diamond.gifA /images/graemlins/heart.gif
The flop is 2 /images/graemlins/heart.gif6 /images/graemlins/club.gifA /images/graemlins/spade.gif so player 3 is a 99.8% favorite to win the hand after the flop according to the odds calculator on Card Player.
The turn is a Q /images/graemlins/heart.gif so player 3 is still a huge favorite with his full house.
The river was the last Queen in the deck. Runner-Runner Queens to give player 1 4 of a kind.
I was a little disappointed that they don't pay out a bad beat jackpot on the sit-n-go's.
Is it even mathematically possible to have a worse beat than that? Is four of a kind getting beat by a straight flush, longer odds than the 1000 to 1 on this hand?
