My worst bad beat to this day...This is in a big tourney $25 buy-in, 50 of 111 remaining. Blinds are 100/200, I hold KK in early position and raise it 3x the BB (600) Get one caller. Flop is 8K8, flopped the 2nd nuts!!! So I check to act as if I missed the flop, he checks behind me. Turn is another 8, Im still not worried and now I just smooth call 200 he calls, river comes and its a meaningless J so I raise it up to 1200 with my Kings full of 8s KKK88.....I put him on KK888. Anyway he reraises allin so its another 600 or so to call so im loving that more chips for me right? Flip over our cards and im realy to laugh at him and whhoooaaaa he has Ad8d and 4 of a kind 8888. Wow what are the odds of him having the other 8, anyone want to do the math? I couldnt believe my luck I want to strangle someone!! Laughing

Wow that must hurt. I was playing a tournamnet yesterday.

I had JQ. It was late and the blinds were high, so I went all in.

Flop is JQ7. I'm so excited and I think I have it won.

The two remaining players both go all-in, and I see...

JJ and Q3. Wow, there go all my chances. Evil or Very Mad
