From CardPlayer.com:
“Gallagher limped in with pocket fives in a multiway pot, and managed to keep his cool as the flop came 7-5-5 . He checked his quads, there were a few other checks, and a player in late position moved all in with pocket nines, thinking his overpair was good. When Gallagher called and turned over his quads, the other player started gathering his things to leave the table … only to see the turn and river come 9-9.
Gallagher flopped quad fives against a pair, and lost.
This is actually the worst bad beat possible in hold’em, statistically speaking. With two cards to come, there were only two cards left in the deck that could save the other player, and he needed both of them to hit or he was out of the tournament. It’s more than a 1,000-1 shot, but he doubled up, and Gallagher was left short-stacked and soon busted out of the tournament.”
So you think you got a bad beat story worse than this?
