Bad Beat Contest......

TheBlueMonster · #1 12-06-2004, 03:32 AM

After reading about so many bad beats, I would like to propose a fun little contest. Who can come up with the worst bad beat story. (Don't bother commenting on whether someone played a hand correctly) I'll start us off with something that happened to me today.

I'm sitting at a NL table with two other players who have slightly larger stacks than me. I'm dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] on the BB. Button makes it 2xBB and other guy re-raises. I come over the top of him. BB re-raises, SB calls, I re-raise all in. Both players call.
Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (both check)
Turn: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (both check)
River: J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (SB all in, BB calls)
Result: they both had Q 10 and split the pot.

This thread is going to be awesome!

I once had 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in NL Texas Hold'em. I raised preflop and the BB called.

The flop was J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

He bet and I just knew he had nothing so I went all in! He called, and I was right, he had nothing! He only had K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

The turn was the 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and the river was the T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. He got runner runner to beat me! Can you believe it?!? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

In the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean", the pretty guy from 21 Jump St. and the pretty guy from The Lord of The Rings have a sword fight in a blacksmith's shop. They jump on stuff, and then they're up in the rafters, and then it seems like the blond guy is going to win, so the guy who used to date Kate Moss hits the elf-dude with some sawdust and pulls a gun and the fight is pretty much over but the elf says "you cheated" and 21 jump street says "Pirate" (very knowingly) and then Gimli hits Gilbert Grape with a wine jug and he is apt to be hanged.

I guess they both got bad beats that day.

Gimli is the dwarf. Legolas is the name you are reaching for.

No, legolas doesn't hit peter pan with a jug, watch pirates of the caribbean. It's gimli.

hum,, i guess this might be possible given that it is showing on some movie channel i receive, but i think it would violate the ethical standard i set to never watch the movie based on a ride. I did hear Depp's performance was a dead-on impression of Kieth Richards, but i still dont think i could bring myself to watch it. How about this: we just agree that "try wearing a corset" is one of the worst lines ever put to paper.

Are you saying that John Rys-Davies (gimli in LOTR) was the drunk guy that hit him over the head? If so, you are incorrect. It was not the same actor. Not sure who it was though. [ QUOTE ]
