Level 4 of the Party Poker Steps ($500 + $35) ... My personal largest buy-in ever
Not sure if this qualifies as a bad beat, since pre-flop i wasn't a dog or ahead

Comments
Did you actually pony up the cash for this one or qualify from an earlier step? Either way: OUCH!
You must have gone through all the emotions on this one. Anticipation at seeing the aces. Excitement at seeing some raises to your right. Elation at seeing someone stupid enough to call your raises. Complete confidence before the flop. Letdown at seeing he has aces too. Utter panic when you see 3 of a suit on the flop. Total defeat when you realize you aren't going to split this pot. (I don't know party - so if they don't show the cards when everyone is all-in, I would add mounting dread to the list as you see 4 of a suit hit the board.) This hobby sure can drain you. And it can really damage your computer and residence...
I feel for you, man. Dust yourself off and get back in there. I think you played the hand spot on, your bets were correct for the size of the pot when it got to you. You just got unlucky. Arghhhhhh!
I'll be honest after it happened, i just looked at the screen and said ... 'i played it properly'
I have a theory. It's probably not new. Just simple math and common sense. If you play cards often enough and long enough, eventually you will see every possible combination of hands.
