I'm playing in the $10+1 rebuys on PokerStars. The rebuy period is over and the blinds are 100/200 with a $25 ante, so the starting pot is $525. I have $9425.

I raise to 400 with the KQ hearts under the gun. Everyone folds to the small blind, who calls. The big blind folds. There is $1225 in the pot

The flop comes J93 with one heart and one spade. The SB bets 200, I raise to 800, he calls.

The turn is the 6 of spades. He bets 400, I call, thinking he has a weak jack or a straight draw (QT, T8), or maybe A9.

The river is the Ts, for a board of Jh-9s-3d-6s-Ts putting three spades on the board but giving me the nut straight. He bets 3000 into the $3625 pot, and I, thinking that there is no way he could possibly have backdoored the flush, considering how he has played the hand thus far, raise all in for my last 4825. THE IDIOT CALLS AND SHOWS THE Q3 SPADES. UNBELIEVABLE. WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS????? WHY??????

"WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?????


Min bet UTG with KQs and then putting all your chips in when you have the worst of it. Why not just call? If you put him on a weak jack then what good is pushing all in going to do? Either he has you beat or he is going to fold in most cases

This is way short of being a bad beat.

Okay, so technically the river wasn't a bad beat, but the whole HAND was a bad beat considering that I was way ahead of him before the flop, and how stupid he was on all betting stages other than the river, when even a complete moron can make money on a fluke backdoor flush with BS hole cards. What kind of idiot calls a raise out of the small blind with Q3s after the UTG has raised double, then calls a 4x raise on a J93 flop with BOTTOM PAIR??? Then he bets into the raiser when he gets a flush draw on the turn? BS.

no wonder there are so few people on this forum compared to rgp and 2+2...the people who put in their two cents about a hand don't know how to play poker and side with Q3 suited calling a raise than KQ suited opening with a raise. makes perfect sense

Even if he knew you had king queen suited he was still getting the odds to call based on your raise. The pot's laying him 3-1. Also, you seem mad at him because he played the hand almost perfectly. He got the most money possible out of you and had you make bad calls and raises the entire way. Also, can you explain the thought process behind raised 2xbb? I think most of the time the big blind will call with just about anything.
