Ok, here is where to tell your bad beats

Mine is,

 My worst bad beat was pushing with aces,and getting called by 1 player on Ace/king Ok fair enough, another caller with Ace/queen ok fair enough again, but then a muppet in the big blind calls with 5 ten.

He hit a 5 on the flop and a ten on the river

really...

This happens about once or twice an hour right?

thanks Longy,

 So 5 ten has a 14% chance of beating aces.

What are the best ten starting hands?,

cheers.

I thought I posted on this thread, wierd.

Was quite a long post, the jist of it was that the beat was pretty standard.

Only in the situation you described. It'll be less if it's just AA vs T5 on their own (12-13% depending on suits)

The reason for T5 faring slightly better in the hand you described, even though there were more players, is that both the other two aces were accounted for in the hands of the other two players.

No chance that you can make AAA and ruin his chances of sucking out.


For your starting hand question, this wikipedia page may help...

lock thread pls

my half wilson failed to crack aces tonight surely thats a bad beat

I like the call with 10 5 if he puts all of you on big cards, I would have liked it more if he had 3 5.

I love bad beat stories, looking forward to hearing some more.

[ ] The-Crow starts interesting threads

+1

ok then,

what better thread would you start?

A booder photoshop thread? :P

i wish it was photoshopped mate,i really do

so this means he does or he doesnt?

Crowy fella, that's the correct play with 5 10 stack sizes dependent of course. I do the same thing imo

Did u sprinkle yr dust b4 hand??????

Luv this thread.btw there are no bad beats if u get it in preflop.does not compute

Sigh i must never get a bad beat then, postflop wtf is that????

My worst bad beat is when my  Ad Ks lost to  Qs Qh, it was so sick, put me on tilt for 2 weeks.

i just puked

I just thought of a worse one. I had  Tc 2h on a  Td 9d Jh board and the idiot called my shove with  Kd Qd!!!! What a monkey.

[ ] Blonde is a very welcoming place these days.

Why have we got to be uber-sarky to new members like this? You'd think the first thing we all did after we popped out of the womb was fold AQ to the mid-wife's all-in.

Reminds me of the old comedy sketch where the driving instructors are laughing at the pupils on their first lesson "you can't even drive."

I'm going to shake my head and mutter dissprovingly.

i agree with this in principal but come on ffs, it's a bad beat thread, people get depressed/pissed off enough with the same old suck outs posted time after time on the sunday thread and pha board(although not so much the sunday thread, it's more of a convention there), did we really need this thread, it's a terribaly boring idea for a thread, plus i'm sure there are 10 or so similar ones that have been resigned to the blonde archives, they died for a reason!

Very good post imo Tank.Its very likely that The Crow is unaware of these previous threads and also the degen sunday thread every week so was just trying to get some opinions.If that is the worst beat you've took and you only have one to mention then your very lucky.Gl with the game it can be a lot harder than that at times and enjoy the forum.

Ok,

As I am a newbie its good to get help, thanks for all your comments

The list of best starting hands is v useful thanks Tank.

I guess if we did not get bad beats the same 10% of top players would always win

And the other 90% would go bust very quickly,

Now even beginners can get lucky and win ,  great.

Welcome to blonde! 

The latest of a long list.


GUKPT super sat Weds. Down to 2 tables about 16/18 left and I get a guy all in me JJ him 99, if my JJ holds up I am chip leader. First card on the flop 9. Anyway get a few back and get to final table about 6th/7th in chips. Card dead for a while then SB v BB clash.

why would you ever fold AQ. I hope it wasnt suited
