Is there any beat worse than this one?

[Biggenx]

i just had to post this cause i can't think of a worse beat than the one that happened to me today.

i'm just thankful i play such low stakes.

hero is UTG with KK

villian is CO with Ac2c


Hero raises $3
Villian calls

Flop comes K55 rainbow

Hero checks
Villian bets $5
Hero pauses for a moment as if thinking about whether to call, then calls.

Turn is a 5

Hero bets $4
Villian immediatly goes all in for $34
hmmmmmmmm Hero calls

Turn is, of course, the very last five in the deck.

Villian scum wins $84 with four of a kind, Ace kicker


Seriously, is there any worse beat than drawing dead to one out?

[skoal2k4]

yes... drawing to runner runner straight-flush to top your 4 of a kind

[Sephus]

if he had gone allin on the flop with a smaller pair and made quads.

u slow play. if he call turn and quad a river u look like clown. better to win small pot etc.

u never never slowplay. im out

[Biggenx]

never slowplay?

he bluffed all in on the turn idiot, and as for the rest of your worse bad beats, i gotta say they aren't as bad as mine.

first off, all he had was Ace high, if he had one of the fives it would be a different story, if he had a suited connector to make a straight flush he had a piece of the board, the bad beat i mentioned the guy only had an Ace!! he had no piece of anything, you guys are talking about small pocket pairs turning into quads, and straight flush draws filling, i'm talking about a sucker using his lone Ace to take the pot with Quads that he didn't deserve.

Maybe it's just me, but those are not nearly as bad as my example. At least they had a hand, my guy had Ace deuce, what the hell, i had Kings full.

I lost with quad aces to the runner runner straight flush to someone with 23 of diamonds. Go cry somewhere else.

Alan Goehring had a very similar beat laid upon him (by Kirill Gerasimov) in the WPT season 1 finale. Heads up, he's on the button with KK and just completes, Kirill checks with A4d. ($25k BB, ~100BB stacks). Flop J77, check, check. Turn 7, check, Alan pots, Kirill calls (with no draw). River 7, Kirril (over)bets $200k and Alan makes the crying call, losing a $550k pot.

Yeah, Kirill Gerasimov, expert player who doubles up the top fullhouse with no pair / no draw after taking like a 2-1 chiplead.

that was awsum. not a bad beat though.

did the see the way the other guy looked at him when he said all in. classic, never seen poker player look so suprise. hes slowplaying with q full and suddenly the other guy goes all in for 2 million into like a 200,000 pot. he had to dubble check his hand lol.
