In the past I slowed played it when I would flop a straight or flush. And the advice from a few of you is don't slow play it. PUSH. Well, this time I pushed and this is what happened. LMAO!!!!

Please tell me I' not losing my mind and this is a total bad beat.

very good play, shitty result. you played it right and got your chips in when you had it. you know you did the right thing.

Thanks dude.....thought I was going insane there. I cannot believe how often these have been happening lately. Damn! Had to get off....would have gone on a big tilt. This was the only decent hand I had all night and get sucked out.

dont worry about this loss. i think you couldnt have played it better. you dont want to just call his bet because theres a flush draw out there, and your hand is very vunerable. who would have known you were against 4 of a kind and a full house

Maybe know you'll learn not to push AI with the best hand.

:roll:

bad beat simple as that....you were very much ahead when you put your chips in the middle.

Thats the best you can ever ask for......

That's funny dude. You were one of the guys who said I should push when I flop the best hand. I'm blaming you for this one....lmao.

Bad beats happen whether you play correctly or not. You just increase your long-term profit by playing well; you don't guarantee that every pot will go your way. You had the best hand here but it was still only 65/35 in your favor vs. the trips.
