Cash game bad beats (4 Viewers)

I had a night like that before.

AA vs Q9 (suited)
Board: AKJAT
Result: My Quad Aces loses to King High Straight Flush

20 minutes later ...

QJ vs 66
Board: QQJ66
Result: My flopped Boat sunk by four bombs running.

1 hour later ...

KJ vs KQ
Board: KJKJQ
Result: Full win, to half chop, to river death.

5 min later (another guy next table over) ...

44 vs 88
Board: 48428
Result: $5000+ pot from chip leaders almost resulted in fist fight at that table.

10 minutes later (me again) ...

AA vs KK
Board: 26TKA
Result: My trips win briefly... but the Ace that gave me the trips was the 4th spade on the board, giving her K of spades the Flush. Trips in the toilet.

Last hand that night ...

QQ vs AK
Board: QQKKK
Result: ...know when to walk away; know when to run...

If ever there was a night to feel like tables were rigged for propositional players... well, my skepticism was tested.
This is so sick it's hard to believe
 
A crazy hand at @mike32 a few years ago. The gambler of the group (John) rivered a straight flush (I think it was a gut shot straight flush draw) vs flopped quads. 300'sh pot in a .25/.50 game :) Mike can verify if I'm correct or not.

C'mon man John was open ended, and dealing I think. Back when I had all those hot stamped TRK's.

This has nothing to do with the hand, but I have exactly 1 of those red TRKs stamped JW3 that another member threw in with a sale to fill up a rack. I always wondered where it came from as I hadn't seen them before.

I bought around 1200 of them as new old stock from someone in Louisiana on eBay for around $150 back in 2009ish. They were dust covered and mint, but I couldn't get past lack of denominations. Got them in play a few times then sold to a CT member. I think some have been milled and relabeled, and look really sweet. I have seen pics on here, and it made me jealous with a hint of seller's remorse!
 
Wow, that hand wins you like 40k in a casino - bad beat

I won a bad beat jackpot at The Grove about 15 years ago. But it was the 3rd time in a month it got hit, so I win the backup to the backup jackpot and only got 7k lol. I'd welcome that "bad beat" again any time though :)

I had Th Td in a capped out family pot from the big blind in a 4-8 limit Holdem game. Flop was Ts Tc 4d. I checked, it gets capped behind me lol. I flat called. Turn Ad, I check, it gets capped again. River 3d, and seat 9 starts jumping up and down yelling "high hand, high hand". He shows down 2d5d for a steel wheel, and I rolled over my quad Tens. Crazy hand.

I find it humorous how many people fail to see the difference between events that are 1 in 100,000, 1 in 1,000,000, 1 in 1,000,000,000 and 1 in 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Somehow, most people see them all as just being unlikely, or really unlikely. Bad beat jackpots happen. They're extremely, extremely rare, but they happen. 5 bad beat jackpot hands in a row do not happen. It will almost certainly never happen in the entire history of mankind either. We would probably have to live trillions upon trillions of years, playing billions of hands per day across the planet for the expectation of that to occur even once in mankind's history.
 
Like I say to my kids.. does it really matter? Why does it bother you so much, because at the end of the day, it has no impact on your life. Just nod your head, and move on.

Sage advice. I think I need kids :)
 
Last week, I was in Vegas for work and played at the Bellagio. My first time ever at a poker table in a casino. I won both nights. Honestly, if I was one of the other players, I'd think the house was feeding me cards. Especially the second night.

I did lose to a couple bad beats. Both runner, runner. Once KK. other than that, I had total control of the table and ended up being the bank for the dealer. It was comical.

They change the dealer at the table frequently. So much so, it's actually annoying. After reading this, I can live with the annoyance. True or not, the possibility for shady dealings exists and with a new dealer every 15 minutes, it would be hard to execute.
 
With me holding 8c8d, there’s a raise and I 3bet. Call/call.

I flop a set. 8h on the board plus two spades.

I check. Villain raises, other villain calls, I shove. Call/Call

Both villains are chasing a spade flush (one drawing dead).

Since I have no spades, one of their outs gives me quads.

So each of their anticipated 9 outs when they called my shove are now reduced to six (one villain drawing dead).

We agree to run it twice.

Board #1: Two spades. I lose that one.

But now I’m only facing 4 outs on the second board for a chop.

Board #2: Turn is another spade.

AsTs scoops.
 
Another: Double board PLO bomb pot, but with only three cards instead of the usual four (host’s weird choice).

I get it all in on the turn with top set on one board and TPTK on the other.

Called by a fishy older lady who I am not sure understands the game.

She has… a gutshot straight draw on both boards.

Catches her gutshot on both boards.
