Does anyone else have hands that they have won/lost and never forgotten?

This was the last hand of a tournament I was in approximately 4 years ago.

Can't remember the platform (possibly Full Tilt) and don't have the hand history anymore, unfortunately.

Dealt: A:c 9:s

We were both pretty evenly stacked. Pre-flop I made a standard raise which he called.

Flop: J:s T:s Q:s

Continuation bet was also called, after a delay.

Turn: 8:s
I made a pot-size bet here which he raised to double the pot.
I re-raised to which he pushed.
Called instantly and he showed A:s 4:d (and seeing my cards said "wow, vnh.")
98% favourite, crossed fingers and closed eyes.

River: K:s

Finished 2nd with a king high straight flush.

Think I stopped playing for a few weeks after that.
Early lesson that "bad beats happen and are part of the game."

In fact, I think I hardly tilt because of that hand.
"4 Kings losing against 4 Aces? That isn't as bad as this hand I had once a few years ago..."

After 24hours I forget about every single hand played...


Here is one from not long ago I will probably remember. Villain is loose aggressive with high showdowns, calling and raising almost everything.

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T, T (Comment)
UTG raises to $0.16, 2 folds, MP1 raises to $0.28, MP2 calls $0.05 (All-In), Hero calls $0.28, 4 folds, UTG calls $0.12.

Flop: ($0.95) T, J, 2 (3 players) (Comment)
UTG checks, MP1 bets $0.04, Hero raises to $1.03, UTG folds, MP1 raises to $2.02, Hero raises to $4.98 (All-In), MP1 calls $2.70 (All-In).

Hero shows: 10, 10
MP1 shows: A, Q

Turn: ($10.65) K (Comment) <-- NOOOO WAAAYYY!!!!

River: ($10.65) 2 (3 players) (Comment) <-- It's all good!

Final Pot: $10.65

He sucked out with a gutshot Straight, I sucked back with a Full House:D

he called preflop and the money went in on the flop. don´t ask me why. i obviously had a read ;)


A few weeks ago I was on the bubble of an MTT

I had QQ, went allin against the chip leader (I think he was trying to steal my blinds)

He turned over 53o v my QQ

flop came A24

Hi all this one happened to me about 4 weeks ago, I was in a tornament on Williamhill poker the last 11 just off final table. I was in MP and dealt AA so as it was check round to me 1 call ahead I raised a normal opening bet every 1 folded to bb he called & limper called flop comes

A :heart: A :spade: 2 :heart:

I'm thinking how much can I get off these guys as it was check round to me I raised about half the pot bb goes all in limper folds I call thinking what a gift this guy must have KK or something decent so the cards are turned over he shows 7 :club: 3 :heart: at that point I'm think he's gone as I had him cover

turn comes down 4 :heart:

so now he's got 1 out

river comes 5 :heart:

so he's the straight flush crippling me with only about 1500 chips left only about 1.5 bb's.

All I can say is donkeys sometimes win with garbage.

Don't think I ever for get that 1

another hand I'll never forget at willianhill about 3 years ago in a torny, when I first started playing poker

I was on bu had kj raised got call from sb

flop came KKJ

i raised he came over the top all in

i called him he turned over AJ

turn A

river A

thing is I only seem to remember the bad beats on me and never when I put a bad beat on someone else, is this the case with every 1.

ps I still like play against donkeys


This was the other week at a pub I go to weekly for poker.

Dealt 7♠ 7♥

Someone goes all in in front of me. I call, 1 player folds, another calls.

Flop comes:

A♦ 3♣ 7♣

Go all in. Person sitting to the left calls.

He turns over trip aces, I turn over trip 7's.

Turn comes:

7♦

River:

3 of something.

I hit a one outer, and over doubled my money. :tongue:
Ironic thing was the guy with 3 aces knocked me out the week before, beating my straight with a flush. :)

Me: AA
Villain 1: KK
villain 2: QQ

My aces held up :)

villain 2: AK

Flop QQ2

he cbets i call
Turn: 4 <= me happy
he bets i raise he calls

River: 9

@ topic:
I had QQ vs AA on AQx A, all-in on turn.
This was an NL50 bad beat jackpot table, and if I had hit the 1-outer, I'd be about 120k$ richer now. yay :)

I never forgot this hand:

My friend was playing an $2 superturbo tournament on prima and I was watching and talking over skype.
He picked up A♥ T :heart: and had the perfect chance to double up, but suddenly - his internet connection got disconnected for 30 seconds and he got timed out. Our chat was sth like this

- Dammit, i had AT :heart:
- Your internet broke down?
- Yeah, whatever, there will be other chances.
- Yeah right! After folding a possible royal flush hand?!

Flop comes Q :heart: K :heart:

I start laughing and say "LOOK YOU DID FOLD A ROYAL FLUSH!!", he says sth like 'naah naah whatever'.

Bam two guys push in.

River comes the J :heart:

All i heard from my speakers was something similar to insane laughter, I'm not sure though, couse it might've been me who was laughing so hard

WSOP ME qualifyer 2nd gets 400+$, 1st got a WSOP package.

3 people left I was 2nd in chips. Small stack had 1/3 my stack

I raise pre flop with AA

Big stack pushes all in

I call

he shows A8o

his 8 gave him the flush to take me out.

I get 0$

I'm still pissed and will always be pissed over this.

EDIT: I wish I never saw this thread cause now I'm in a bad mood thinking about it again....
