Excuse me sir...Please check your straight flush...Thank you...

Twice I have been in a similar situation. One time at Artichoke Joe's in San Bruno, playing hold 'em I had quads and bet them as I should, an OPEN-ENDED straight flush draw folded to me, and the whole table berated me! Not one word for the idiot who folded...

The other time was even more laughable. I was playing Omaha at Lucky Chances and flopped quad nines, check-called the flop, bet and re-raised the turn when a flush came on the board and bet the river when another pair came on the board. My quads were beaten by a straight flush. After the cheer went up for hitting the jackpot, the guy with who gave me the bad-beat started yelling at me - yelling - for betting the turn so hard! And he'd just won 20% of the jackpot!

Bottom line, jackpots are out there but they rarely happen. 999 times out of 1000 my quads are going to beat his full house and he should pay.
