I wouldn't mind the preflop raise, if you had position.
Definitely should have raised on the flop, especially considering you raised preflop. However, the result most likely would have been the same.
What hand history converter is this?

Hard to get away from that one though
BTW, worst hand history software ever.
And BBQ's ROCK!
Anyways ... so wasn t a bad beat ... the thing is he caught a 2 outer ... like always ... ???

Yes, this is a bad beat, in the sense of the odds. The nice thing is this will not happen very often, and that guy should not have been in the hand at that point, but at the lower levels you see more of these sort of things since weaker hands stay around longer and more showdowns.

Your not sticking around to hit a straight flush. So hes calling because he thinks he can river a straight? This is when the board is already paired and he may not bedrawing to the top straight even if he hits, or someone could already have one easily with a flop like that.
True... 56 will not suckout on an overpair too often.
This isn't a bad beat, it's a bad raise, from out of position with a sub-standard hand. Did you get lucky to hit two pair? Yes... did you get luckier to hit the boat? Yes... did you get unlucky that he hit a 4 outer? Sure... if it makes you feel better.

--edit--
P.S. Your flat call on the flop probably suggested that you had over cards, maybe AdQ/K/J, so if I were to put you on that, I'd call the $4 bet thinking I may be ahead, I have 2 outs for the boat and two for the straight, and the implied odds aren't bad...
So when exactly were you thinking the guy with 88 should fold?

Totally agree. Tough to call it a bad beat when you were behind on 3 of the 4 betting rounds. While that flop might look really nice, you're actually a 2:1 dog (9 flush outs + 6 straight outs, + 2 set outs, + 3 two pair outs = 20 outs, plus most blanks on the turn are going to give him 2 more two pair outs).
It's obviously a bad beat in the sense of the odds, thats all i'm going to give the poster credit for.
If I was full stacked, so say 60$, as that would give me the second hightest total at the table, and I get pushed all in on the turn, I'm not calling that bet.
So, analyzing what this guy did aside, since there are several mistakes in my opinion, i'm not calling if that happens. I know it didn't, so maybe with the pot odds, its good for him even if he is very low % to river here.
I guess I have to keep the level of play and the chip stacks in relation to that as well, in mind. If you give odds to call, especially at low levels, your going to get called. If you do that, you'll be making alot more of these kinds of posts.
Otherwise.... still a bad play, and Scooby brings up a good point... you were statistically behind preflop, on the flop, and then the river.
