Just came from Yahoo poker, where our pocket 6's turned into QUAD 6's -- on the turn! We checked with lead position on the turn, and a couple of other players bet behind us. Shame on them. It turned into a $98 pretend (boo hoo) payoff.
But our recent record of bad beats included one at Yahoo as well....
BLINDS: 1/2 (pretend; $12-$20 limits)
IN THE POCKET: J-J
A nice start, and several people join in betting.
ON THE FLOP: 7-7-?? (we forget the third card, and it doesn't matter)
As we recall, our Jacks were an overpair. So we bet, and a few others stick around.
ON THE TURN: ?? (we forget this one, too)
We don't recall any straight or flush threat. So we bet again, and one other opponent remains.
ON THE RIVER: 7.
We bet and get called. Could our opponent have a pocket pair of his own?
Nope. Try a fourth 7. We get burned and lose. Call it the other side of the quad.
