Bad beat, f**k my life.
Alright =l
Sorry, first post ever. I feel the need to share what just happened to me.
I'll admit to it, I'm a rather new player, when it comes to 8/9/10-players tables; that being said, I do make up for it on HU/4/6 tables.
I was just here playing a heads up, 0.50$/1$.
I take a seat, load up to 100$, and wait for an opponent. A guy sits. Fifteen seconds later, we're off.
We play, roughly a hundred hands, and I get the idea : he's really loose. I've intentionally lost a few pots simply to see what he held, despite the lack of me holding anything.
He would call a 5$ raise preflop with roughly anything Jacks/Ten and over. Given I know most of my actually 70/30 hands will win, I keep the raises going. At some point he called a 10$ bet with :jc:10c with the flop actually looking like :ac:4c:ad. Didn't hit his flush, and checked until the river. I won with my Ace trips. He's down to roughly 70$ by that point. He leaves the table.
I decide to change table, and see him sitting somewhere. I join.
Fifteen seconds later, we're off again.
First hand, I'm dealt :kc:ks
I raise 5$, he calls.
Flop comes down : :5c:kd:5d
I check. He takes a while to think, then goes all-in, apparently trying to scare me off after I checked; I rarely ever trap, and he probably is thinking I didn't hit s**t
I instacall.
He reveals :ad:9d
I sit back in my chair, look at the table, and I'm thinking to myself "Awesome ! Then again, last thing I wanna see are running Aces."
Turn comes around : :5s. Quick thought : I won this ! Full House is holding.
River comes around : :5h. Quickly, I'm thinking "Cheers...oh...wait..."
We both have four of a kind, fives.
But he is holding four of a kind, fives - Ace kicker.
We've all seen a flopped set get destroyed by a river ace.
I've seen my flopped Quads get destroyed by a Royal Flush.
I've seen all kind of bad beats, but that one up there.
That one surprised me. A lot.
