    theres a been a lot of them lol..

    was going to call blind(mad table)utg but looked at my cards 27o and folded,last weds night,68 against k6 in the blinds.. flop is 622 they get it in on the flop.. turn is the case 6..river case 2 :o thats pretty sick

    playing a sng online sitting with 3bbs(just lost a huge pot),in the big blind k2o sb shoves with a 10.. flop is 10102.. 2.. 2..

    i thought that chop pot on the final table of the IO was sick..67o vs QQ..runner runner chop chop :pac: serves her right terrible call pre

    worst bad beat was online FT 30 person sng..2nd in chips and chipleader has me bearly covered we both have the table crushed and we are fairly deep..folded to me on the button with AA..make a standard 3 bb raise get flat called by the bb Q5o..flop comes 10 7 2 rainbow.. he raises just under the pot i tank and shove he insta calls..comes Q turn..5 river..beat doesnt even seem imaginable,should have took the hand number down,but i felt like smashing the monitor more than anything..withdrew my money straight after that

    UTG, I posted BB by mistake & was forced to leave it out. Turned a 7 high straight flush (spades). Lol.

    Ship the best hand prize, but...very next hand, I turned the nut flush. All-in. Called by 8 high straight flush (spades). Knocked out, lose best hand prize, go to bar. Lol, live poker is rigged.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,802 ✭✭✭DAMO72


    MTT 26 left , im 2nd in chips in BB with 99 and the chip leader is Mp. 3 shorties limp and the big stack min raises and i shove , 3 folds and an insta call from the big stack holding 22 , the board runs out (Flop)QQ9 (Turn)2 (River)2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 588 ✭✭✭Lao Lao


    All in with 88 on a 884 flop, called by 99, turn card 9, river card 9 - Night night!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,002 ✭✭✭fatguy


    Short stacked in a pub tourney I check 8d9d in the Big Blind with a few limpers.
    Flop comes 7d10h6d
    Guy in EP bets strong, everyone folds, I flat.
    Turn is a brick, he puts me all in, I call, he shows trip 10s.
    River is 10d :eek:
    I beat his quad tens with a straight flush.

    $20 180 man on Stars I get destroyed in a three way allin just before the final table with AA but make the final table with 4k in chips. Get dealt AA first hand at final table and get my shove called by seven of the other eight and it held up. I won the tourney.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 358 ✭✭Wolves


    50euro omaha sweat at end of a cash game. 8 players.

    Final board reads AQQ72. Winning hand is K high.

    Basically 3 aces 2 queens 3 sevens and 3 twos are all still in the 15 cards not used. And nobody has a pair in their hand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,501 ✭✭✭BrokenArrows


    think of the james bond casino royal hand.

    i made a straight flush on the turn. One the turn the action on the table exploded. I didnt know what was happening.

    What sucked was i was short stacked. Pot ended up at over 2k but only 800 was mine.

    At the end there was the nut flush, another flush, a full house and my straight flush.

    Was dealt pocket kings in a cash game on the internet. The flop was k 8 3. I went all in and was called by a player with a 7 3 off. The final pot was about 600 dollars. I thought all my birthdays had come at once until the turn and river were the two remaining threes.

    Quad threes to kings full of threes.

    guess this is mine, a 10k event , pasted from my bahamas blog last jan :(

    Ok, what is a bad beat, I win a 14k trip to the Bahamas, I get to play in a 10k event with the best players in the world, I play a 1k sat into it to cover donkament varience, I WIN it and pocket 10k, so I'm really freerolling with 10k guaranteed. We have SEVENTY FIVE minute levels. I last ONE level. 20k starting stack, I've QQ , aggro yanky has KK, I raise 400 he repops to 1200 I call(meh it's early and I dont wanna go too mad) , flop Q 3 9 rainbow, he raises 5K I'm jumping out of my seat inside. I think/hope now he's got AA or KK, so I flat call, he asks me if Ive got AQ, I ask is it ahead? he pushes...I snap call, he shrieks like a woman in pain, then rivers a K and kaput, out I go. Camera was on it so maybe It will be shown, if so I hope his American jock impersonation is shown in its full glory...YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. I ask him what specificially was he talking about but he declines to tell me.....LOL FKITAMENTS

    well I cant complain as I'm still up 10k and would have settled for that beforehand, not sure if I'll play a side even as I'm still in shock after that river. All this way for less than 75 minutes..:-(




    went on to make 20k profit that week. dollars

    About eight, nine months ago, I'm at the Taj, it's late,and I see Johnny Chan walk in. And he goes, he sits. And the whole place stops when Johnny Chan walks in. Everybody puts an eye on him. After a little while, there wasn't a crap game going cause all the high rollers are over there watching him.Some are playing with him, giving away their money to this guy to say "Oh, I played with the World Champion." And you know what I did? I sat down. Played tight for an hour. I folded mostly, and then I made a score. I had nothing. But he raised. And I just decided, you know, I don't care about the money. I'm just gonna outplay the guy. I'm just gonna outplay this guy this hand. I re-raised. Re-raise. And he just comes right back over the top of me, trying to bully me like I'm some ****ing tourist. I hesitate for two seconds. I re-raised. And he makes a move toward his checks, and he looks at me. And he mucked it. I took it down. "Did you have it?" "I'm sorry, John. I don't remember." I got up, and I walked to the cashier. I sat with the best in the world, and I won.

    Santa Strike Force charity game in the Fitz.

    QQ all-in against AQo

    AQo needs to hit one of three aces.
    Flop has an Ace (rainbow flop with no straight draws).

    The QQ is almost dead, and needs to hit the case Queen.
    Turn is the case Queen.

    AQo is almost dead and is drawing to the two remaining aces.
    River is an Ace.

    Nice hand:eek: The biggest pot I ever lost was like this one. I was young and playing 5/10. I had AQ. Flop A47 flush draw flop. We got it all in he had QQ. Dud turn and case Q on the river!!! bye bye 2.7k, Screen, Mouse and Monitor!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Foxx92


    Not a big pot but just a small game at a freinds house.
    7 of us left 5, of us get delt pockets, AA KK 1010 88 and 22. One folds and big blind (36) calls a small raise. Flop, 335, Turn A and River 3!
    Was funny looking at everyones hands at the end finding out 5 of us got pockets and we all got beat by 36!

    Five card draw with dueces wild about 12 years ago after a golf outing from work.
    3 left in the hand and all the money goes in. About 2 weeks wages in the pot.
    I have quad 8's, next player has royal flush with 1 duece as an ace. Next player has royal flush for the scoop. Full royal flush outranked the wildcard royal flush. I shuffled and dealt the hand so no funny business.

    Cash game, Vegas last month in the strat(dealers will know this hand well)

    I have 3-4 clubs on the button, someone utg raised to 8 in a 1-2 game, 3 callers. I re-pop it to 32, utg calls and other player calls

    flop comes 10c-10s-5c
    utg leads out betting 110, other guy folds, I shove for 540 total, he has my covered

    he makes the call

    Turn comes Jh
    River Ad

    I announce, "I missed" and turn over my 34, he fists pumps and turns over 9s-7d

    Well I suppose it would be my straight flush over another guys straight flush, on the flop! Glad it wasn't the other way around.

    Happened again to me when somebody was in the sb and I was in the bb, one other player raised and the sb folded but just showed us what he had after.

    Online: recent donkament. I raise utg+1 with QQ. Table donk calls in late pos (range: almost any 2).

    Flop Q82 rainbow. Villain is overaggro bluff maniac so I trap check. He pots it. I call, knowing he'll fire any turn. Turn is a 6. Check, pot. Figuring I'm more likely to get the rest in now than the river I ship. He snaps with AJ.

    Live: CHL's monthly. I raise AQ utg. Shortie ships in the blinds, I call. He has QQ. Flop Q33. Turn 3. River 3. Weirdest ting about the hand is before the turn was dealt, Luke predicted running 3's.

    Damn I ran good back then.

    Cash game 50/1. I have 77. Flop comes down 733. 1 guy is all in on the flop with (AK) and is drawing to running AA or KK. Turn is a 2. Me and the other guy get it all in and he turns over 22. River 2 :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,771 ✭✭✭TommyGunne


    Not wow or anything, but the hand that had the most significance for me at the time was when I was only starting to take the game seriously. Somehow managed to get AA in vs AA in the Jackpot for a €800 pot when my entire roll came to less than €2k. Other guy had the Ah. Flop had 2 hearts. Ross Johnson sees the pot on the next table and starts calling for hearts. It worked. :(

    I did a similar thing to Mclovin when he was all in AA vs AA against Broomfield! Conor's nonchalant attitude as he flushed out was hilarious and put Fogell on life tilt!

    Craziest hand?

    Well, got ten-ten four times in the same tourney. Forced to go all in each time (mostly pre-flop).
    Two wins, two losses (the last knocking me out against jack-jack and ace-king, no improvment for any of us).

    Very strange, but I often find the same hands turn up... for better or worse...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 280 ✭✭super182
