Title: My Bad Beat
Post by: MintTrav on July 24, 2009, 17:38:03 PM
Thought I"d share my bad beat in the Maybury"s own tournament on Sunday night as I don"t think I mentioned it to anyone at the time.

Me KT. Flop AQJ rainbow. I"d been playing a little loose so thought I could get paid by playing it strong when I had a good hand. Anyway we ended up all-in on the flop, my straight against his top pair A2 - game over.

Or not - Turn Q, River Q = full house for him.

I"m starting to wonder if maybe luck does play a role in poker after all.

Call that a "Bad Beat"?

Tis nothing when compared to what happened to my ex mate Darren.

He grew up with a great sense of pride and self being English through and through, then one day due his father working on the family tree he finds out his great-great-great-grand parents were bloody French ! !

Poor ******* never recovered and I never spoke to him again, I felt betrayed.

Aye, even recounting the tale leaves me needing to sit down with a warm drink and a packet of Ginger Nuts.
