Default Re: Good Logic or Bad Beat?

A true bad beat is when someone catches a miracle card on the river. Say you have AA and someone else has 72 and the flop is 77A. The turn is a brick and the river is a 7. 72 just "caught perfect" and delivered a bad beat to the AA hand. So your scenario is theoretically possible if Player A was a "huge dog".

or is it fair to say that A shouldn't have been in the hand in the first place and set himself up to lose money?

Sounds to me like someone is trying to rationalize winning a big pot with a crappy hand against a hand that had it dominated...

If anything, Player B should not have been in the hand, but then if there were no player B's, we would not have fish to win money from.
