[coltrane]

honestly, I think that the hand was kind of interesting and could've been something other than a normal bad-beat story.....however, the way you posted it, it was still a bad-beat story.....had you posted it up until the turn and then asked a question or made some kind of point (that was irrelevant of the result), I think that would've been fine....or, if you had wrote in the subject heading that it was a bad-beat story, that also would've been fine because then others can read at their own discretion.....but the combination of just posting the hand history, giving the results outright (clearly intended to show a bad beat), and then making no other point about the hand - that to me makes it just a bad-beat post....though like I said, I think there might've been some things of interest (moreso than a normal bad-beat post) had it been posted differently....
