The odds that your jacks are good here are infinity to zero against because all the cards have been dealt and your hand is not the best.

Here are the preflop results from pokerstove:

equity (%) win (%) / tie (%)

Hand 1: 46.3302 % [ 00.46 00.00 ] { KQs }
Hand 2: 53.6698 % [ 00.53 00.00 ] { JJ }

So JJ wins this 53% of the time preflop.

If you mean after the flop, then the only way you could have lost was the way you did: runner-runner kings.

The chance of this happening is:

(2/45)*(1/44)=.0010

About 1 in 1000. Pretty bad beat.

EDIT: Pasted in corrected pokerstove results. Also, if one of the jacks on board was the same suit the KQ, you might also have run into two different straight flushes, bringing your odds up to 3 in 1000

I just made a small edit, if that's what do you mean. Or if you're referring to the pokerstove results, it's just a free program you can download. Search google for it.

Well, worst beat possible after the flop, but pre flop you're only a slight favourite. Bet you didn't see the kings coming though.
