AA cracked twice in one hand--how bad is this beat?
Playing the 1-2 NL at Foxwoods, I'm dealt AA in the cutoff. Before it gets to me, there's been a raise ($10), a reraise($20), and a cold call($20). I've got about $95 in front of me, and go all-in. Original raiser calls with the rest of his stack (around $45), reraiser folds, cold-caller calls me and has me covered.
Original raiser shows KK. Cold caller shows 88.
Flop brings a K, so the main pot goes to KK. Competing for the side pot, I lose when an 8 hits the river.
These things happen. But I wonder what the odds were against such a scenario taking place. It's probably easy math for most of the folks on this forum. Thanks in advance.
