hi all
Below is a shortened version of The only bad beat that's ever really got to me
the full rant is in my blog which may or may not be a regular read for you - It's a bit of an aquired taste - or rubbish - depending on how you look at it and life.

Anyway long and the short of it - 0.10/0.20 shorthanded cash table
I'm on button with $10 left (from $20) and get dealt AA (I've been playing loose and fast oops)
blinds total 30 cents (to steal)
chip leader is first to act and goes all-in with $43 ?????
the next to players with approx $20 each sit and think and fold
I'm sat on the button with AA and so I call all-in for $10
Flop comes down J-3 .......... so danger card is the Jack I'm thinking
Turn and river come nothing scary ...... so thinking I'm good or dead to trip Jacks
he turns over 33 .... trip 3's
hmm - 33 all-in preflop to steal 30cents or face getting called for $20+ stuck with 33
discuss
