Re: What is a bad beat, really?
Respectfully disagree.
You're both getting too intellectual about this. A bad beat is just whatever we call a bad beat. If the casino calls it a "bad beat," then it's a bad beat. There are no essential properties that make something a bad beat.
The correct way to understand what bad beats are is to enumerate all of the different scenarios we call bad beats, and then to remark about how some have similarities and some do not.
