How many times have you lost with quads?

Just curious. Over my online poker career which is about a year and a half old, I've probably played a quarter million hands and lost with quads 3 times.

The only time I've ever lost with quads (and it's happened at least a few times) is when quads is on the board and I have a weaker kicker.

Okay, i'll be more specific. You have the pocket pair and there and the other 2 of your rank are on the board. Good point.

Twice. Both in O/8 games, both when I'd either flopped or turned quads, and both to rivered overquads.

I flopped quads against two players.
One of them turned smaller quads.
The other rivered his royal.
The hand wasn't slow-played.
This was live casino poker for you online conspiracy theorists.
Thank you for making me remember this misery.

I am amazed that I had forgotten about this one - it only happened 4 months ago:

Absolute Poker 5/10 Hold'em (4 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, Hero raises, 1 fold, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (6.40 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero calls, BB calls.

Turn: (4.70 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero calls, BB calls.

River: (7.70 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets, Hero raises, BB folds, UTG 3-bets, Hero caps, UTG calls.

Final Pot: 16.70 BB

Results in white below: 
UTG has 8c 7c (straight flush, ten high).
Hero has 9s 9h (four of a kind, nines).
Outcome: UTG wins 16.70 BB. 

The funny hands that I enjoy are the ones where I fold on the flop and then would have hit quads:

Never... Probably in about 100k hands.

I have lost quads twice in bad beat jackpot hands during a promo at Absolute. Both times my quad tens lost to a royal. At the now closed Bigbetpoker.com I cracked quad 5's with a 9 high straight flush.

I assume you mean only holdem because in Omaha8 and Stud8 this has happened many more times then this in hands I have been in.

MarkSummers · #9 10-03-2005, 12:16 AM

I lost quad queens to quad aces but unfortunately it wasn't on the BBJ party tables.
