Pretty Bad Ugly Beat

[adrodysee]

NICE LONG TOURNY...FINAL TABLE...The dealer sends me AA...shwwweeet. I raise pre-flop...get 1 call...10,A,4 on flop...doublepot bet, puts opp. all-in and myself, but who cares? right?...he thinks; he calls ~ he has pocket tens. I feel him groaning at my aces...I'm still on the edge of my seat, but confident...turn brings K and no hopes for a straight or flush for either of us...guess who's feeling more confident now??? MEEEEEEE...woohooooo.....here it comes...river..and you guessed it!! ...the one and only ... other ten. Was the best bad beat I've ever had...and one in which I felt the least dissappointed. I played a great game; I made a profit in the tourny (allbeit not a big one); and my loss did not come from poor play, but from poker at its best.

The dreaded one outer. While that isn't the worst bad beat it certainly ranks up there.
You attitude about the beat was fantasic, I wish I could do that more often.
Good luck in the future, and as they say, if you gotta go, go with Aces!!!
