Default Re: Calling quads...

On the river, I do the following:

1) Check to see if I am playing at the bad beat tables.
IF
a) I am not, shoot myself and fold.
b) Call and run around the house screaming.

and he flips over AQ and you scream at your computer for letting a 2 outer than 1 outer consecutively happen.

Perfect perfect to a chop is more tolerable, because you get some consolation money, but is twice as bad a suckout.

Much worse on a bad beat table. You have to pay the extra rake, and this hand wouldn't qualify, since this guy's AQ only plays one card, and is not eligible for the bad beat because of it... The only thing that sucks worse than losing with quad kings on a bad beat table is losing with quad kings on a bad beat table and not getting money for it.

OOC, this is about a 500:1 shot against what happened, from the flop forward, right?

Given that he doesn't flop quads often, this is pretty rare...

I have it as a 990:1. Odds of hitting an ace on the turn are 2/45, odds of hitting the case ace on the river are 1/44, giving 990:1

That sucks man. I had a similar hand today, and the hand I lost to wasn't even the hand I suspected I was going to lose to (When he capped the turn, I began to suspect villian had JJ, didn't even see the royal flush possibility). Granted, I didn't flop quads, but a boat is the next best thing. Had to take a walk after that one.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, BB folds, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, MP2 calls.

Flop: (10.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 caps</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (9.25 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 caps</font>, Hero calls.

River: (17.25 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 21.25 BB

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has As Ac (full house, aces full of jacks).
MP2 has Qd Kd (straight flush, ace high).
Outcome: MP2 wins 21.25 BB. </font>

edit: yes, I should've slowed down earlier. Yes, I should've wondered why he kept reraising. Just... can't... stop.. hitting.. raise.. button...
