I was shooting a TV story with some local pros when I put this one on of them.

I had A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]...flop came 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
He was short stacked, I pushed him all in, he called.
Showed 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Turn: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
River: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

cant believe you let the player back in after he folded.

That was my very first thought. Why would you let a player back in after he folded? THAT'S the mistake, not that he played cards he shouldn't have.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's result-oriented thinking. If you have top pair and your opp. is minded to fold, don't you think you have the advantage? If he says fold and then a few seconds later says wait, can I change my mind, you make a read. If you think he's not angling, then it's +EV to let him put more money in as a dog.

LOL -- I did that to someone just yesteday in a SNG, except I had trip 8s against a straight. It was sweet!!!

However, that kind of beat when it's against me is less upsetting what the OP wrote about. If your opp goes all in with trip 5s, you can't really fault him, you'd have done the same thing, so if you lose you lose. It's when the Poker Gods reward a really stupid play that's frustrating.

You're right. A bad beat from stupid play infuriates me sometimes. I wasn't angry at all with the Binions beat I was just in shock, lol.

that's not a beat, that's a catch by the Aces. What, he's dumping his hand on the flop?

Do you have ENOUGH of an advantage to overcome 100% success on the flop when they fold?
Limit, probably. NL, getting knocked out once may not make you as happy about getting +EV calls

I never said that it was just rather disapointing. I never said he had no business in the hand just very rare thats all.

that's not the worst beat imaginable. And if something like that is really making you want to quit..well, then I gues you weren't made for poker to begin with.

you did not give other suits, but I used the worse for you.
You got a guy all in in a situation where you are ~78% to win. Good job, and do NOT complain about a hand like that in future.
I guarantee you that many many other players here have seen much worse than that.

i had one much worse today... had a set of 5s against somebody who called my all-in with top pair jacks, 9 kicker (complete fish) he turned and rivered two nines to take it down with a higher boat. to OP... you're a [censored].

I had the worst of them all!

I had J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in the BB. Guy minraises, I call. Flop comes A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I check he bets I push all in for 1 billion dollars cash and he calls and turns over A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Turn brings A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] but I'm not worried

River brings the last A, the mystical 2nd A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and I lose with my royal flush to 5 of a kind. I MEAN WTF IS THAT

Now I'm broke [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
