Did I do right to call the all in and what hand would beat me?

I am only putting this up as ropert01 called me a few unpleasant names and said "I do not know the rules" and a donk. Perhaps he was right about rules but cannot understand why he was so rude to me!  On hindsight perhaps I should have bet higher or gone all in on the flop.

Is this a level? sorry if it isn't but it must be.........

 beats you now, you have the worst hand possible right here - it is impossible for anyone to not have a better hand than you here

Turning a 2 doesn't help you hand at all, all it does is give you 1 out, you still have KKK22

you should fold the flop, not bet turn and fold the river, fold at any point you can post flop basically

Nellie, you are playing the board here, your hand is quad kings with a 2 kicker. You can't win this hand

[George2Loose]

When there's 4 of a kind on board, your high card plays. Doesn't matter whether it's 4 kings or 4 tens. If you have an ace in this situation, you have the nuts.

only 5 cards are used in NLHE

Even the pro's get confused.....

Gazes looks like an idiot, but Brown played the hand worse

What hand can beat KKKK if you are holding a pair which is not an A

just go all in - most of the time they cant call

[gatso]

why did chad brown not get a penalty there?

[zerofive]

why did chad brown not get a penalty there?

Because he only had ace high. She could have had a full house.

If this hasnt been made clear in your head.

On the river, the board reads KKKK2 and we hold 22. If we replace either 1 or 2 of our cards to make the best possible hand, we still have KKKK2, therefore playing the board. Dont forget that our hand has to be 5 cards.

There is no other possible hand that the villain can have that doesnt beat us. There is only one 2 left if the deck. If he did by some chance have this 2, then he has to have another card to accompany it. Even if that card was a 3, giving him 23, he has KKKK3, which beats our hand.

At showdown, any hand with an ace in it is the nuts. Wether it be A3, AK or AA. They are all the same, because it gives you KKKKA.

On a side note, love the Kirsty Gazes hand. "Uhh, excuse me, we both have quads". Chad should have shoved the river. Defo would have called lol.

Is this a level? He had the nuts. 6666A. He should have got a penalty.
