why not call all in with big slick?
So I was playing hold'em online the other day and I get pocket 6's and go all in three handed.
Some guy calls me with a ragged AKo and catches the luckiest King I've ever seen on the flop.
I can't believe he called me with that. I guess if luck wasn't involved I'd never loose.
That lucky king cost me $327.
why not call all in with big slick?
Unspoken rule of poker. Only amateurs call with kournikova. In that situation, you know your probably 50/50 at best. It's just a weak play, dude.
You're the moron who went all in with pocket 6's. I mean... seriously.
when has that ever been considered a bad beat? Nevertheless, get used to beats.
52-48. Bad beat.
Seriously bro.
This thread is funny.
I challenge the Motorcity Cobra Thomas The Hitman Hearns for the Welterweight championship of the world!!!!

"The luckiest king you ever saw"???
I got eliminated in the WSOP in June when my 77 lost to AK on the river when the king ed. The river beat is much worse than a flop beat.
You have a 50-50 chance to catch an ace or a king with AK by the river, so you getting beat my AK is not a bad beat...it happens.
This is a bad beat:
We play a 1-3 NL game on Monday nights. I am in BB. Griffey,who is to my left raises it up to $9.00 and we get two callers before me, so I look down and see A-3 clubs, so I call.
The Flop:
6-3-3
I bet $10, Griffey calls, player 3 folds, and the Button raises to $25() I call, as does Griffey.
Turn:
2
A good card for me, so I bet $50, Griffey calls, the BB folds. Red flag now(could Griffey have 6-3 or 2-3???)
River:
Ace![]()
I bet $85, Griffey raises to $170( what the ???) I push all in for my last $75 or so, and the er had 6-6 for a bigger full house.
That was the only hand I worried about, because had he had AA, he would not have been in hand at turn when me and the BB were betting it up.
Manny, what would you have done in my spot?
not when your three handed and it's pre-flop. not to mention if the guy has plenty of chips to play with. this happens on like every hand when i play online poker
This was the craziest most gut wrenching hand I've ever played. We were playing heads up and the guy I was playing had twice as many chips as I did.
I go all-in with pocket 5's, he calls with QJ suited.
I flop trips, he gets a pair
On the turn he yells cuz he gets trips, then I yell cuz I realize I have a full house.
I pretty much have this in the bag and on the river comes the last jack!!!!
I begin to cry....f*%kin river.

brahs, my table rep should have prevented calling with AK. He knew I had the goods. He should have laid it down NQA.
That is sick. How much did you lose in that hand?
It was just a small $20 tourney. I was short-stacked playing heads up so if I won that hand I would've had a chance to win $200.
Okay then, how's this:
Playing $2-3 at a casino with $200 in my kitty. I am on the button, there are two callers, I call, then small pays and big checks. I have 9-10 hearts.
10c 8d 7d
Checks around to me, I bet $20 and get called by two players.
10s
Trips! Still got the straight draw and no flush out yet. Nice. Easily beaten by a good kicker, but it doesn't feel like anyone hit, so I bet $50, one fold, seat seat 7 raises all-in and I... call.
10d
Quads! OMG! And then he turns over...
Jd 9d
Mmmmmm-hmmmmm.
Sure, I should've gotten out of the hand on the turn given that I was beaten by A/K/Q/J-10, but it had an aura about it.
I won the money back, and more, 4 days later while watching the Spurs and Cleveland in game 3, possibly the ugliest 4th quarter of all time.
I once had pocket aces and the dude had pocket aces.
Yup, then I went all in and he called, then the flop came up all aces and we both lost somehow to a dude with 3-7.![]()
So you won or lost with Quad 10's or did you lose in another hand? That was kind of confusing.
lol no ....that is NOT a bad call.....you're just a horrible player...period.
He had Quad 10's but lost to the straight flush.
In most casinos, there is a bad beat jackpot. Did you not have one there? I would love to have quads beaten in a casino, most of the jackpots are thousands of dollars, some that I have seen have been up to 30K...
No bad beat Jackpot?
Fold preflop. OOP a suited ace in a multiway pot is a recipie for disaster. You'll win some small pots but you'll lose big ones.
As played on the flop I hate your bet. 10 dollars into a 36 dollar pot smells either really bad trapish or like you're trying to feel it out. I don't hate your bet as much as I hate the button's raise, but w/e. Once they both call you have to start wondering what they have and 66 is one of a possiblity here as are bigger pairs. You don't give the suits but if there was a flush draw I could also see 4-5 or a flush draw especially if it was an OE straight flush draw.
Your weak bet on the turn kills me too. If he's going to call half a pot, why won't he call a full put bet? If you think you're ahead - bet as much as you think he'll call. You're either way ahead here with him having an overpair or draw. The only other hand I an concievbly put him on is 66. 2-3 or 6-3? Why on earth would anyone raise from UTG with that? Doesn't make sense. AA-99 (really probably 77), 45, 66, or some Axs with a flush draw are the only hands that make any sense. Anyway - rambling but bet more next time. Especially if you're pushing no matter what comes on the river.
River seals your fate but when I see it I puke because it really doesn't help you. Its a card you hate to see. It might make him think twice about getting the rest in with KK-77 and it just made AA a winner. 66 is still beating you and you're not getting anymore money from any draws because they all missed. So basically while you see that A on the river as a great card, its actually a ty card. It doesn't make your hand any more likely to win and it actually makes it more likely that your opponent has just drawn out on you or will be less likely to pay you off. All the more reason to get your money in on the turn.
So after all that you should basically throw those hands away OOP. On the button you can play them much more in multiway pots like that, but from the blinds its just a way to lose your money.
Are you kidding me? Never fold that turn! Never never never! 3 10s on the board you shouldn't worry about being out kicked. If it happens it happens. You played it fine. Only thing I would have done differnetly woudl have been to raise preflop. Dude hit the one outer, that sucks balls any way you slice it.
