First of all let me start off saying I feel you’re your pain and I’ve been there. Had over boats crushed by quads, nut flushes flushed away by the gutbusting 1 outer straight flush on the river, online poker is a sick, sick hobby but off all the bad beats I’ve been victim to, handed out or witnessed here’s my favorite.
I was a mere observer on this bad beat and the evening began playing Omaha Hi, I know it’s a chasers game but this guy (we’ll call him Donk) gets on our table and just starts raising every pre-flop and then firing away after that. This guy can do no wrong, even when he’s firing with nothing he’s hitting the river, never loses a hand. After a while the table is pretty much donked out and most players leave including the donk. I sit out and run a search for the donk. He’s taken all his winnings to a heads up hold ‘em tourney and here’s how the tourney went.
1st hand
Dealt to Donk 7 5 off
Dealt to player #2 6 4 suited
Donk raises, Player #2 calls
Flop 3 4 6 (sweet flop)
Donk bets pot, Player #2 raises all in, Donk calls
Turn 8
River 6
Player #2 wins with full house
Tournament is over.
Donk throws huge hissy fit insulting player #2 in caps with spaces between to beat the censor. Shouting how he was cheated and what a bunch of bs.
I know it’s wrong to laugh at somebody else’s misfortune but I just couldn’t help myself. I’d like to personally thank Pokerstars for that one.
