un classique du gros gros bad beat selon TJ Cloutier:
"Cloutier was playing in a no-limit Hold’em cash game at the famous Bicycle Club with Al Krux, a great player himself, who’s made several final tables at the World Series of Poker.
Krux was running bad and, picking up pocket kings, put all his remaining chips - $435 – into the pot. The player to Krux’s left was having a massage and, with his cards held high, the player to his left saw them. It mattered not. Both players mucked their cards.
Play got round to Cloutier who, holding pocket 10s and seeing what other players had done, figured he was probably ahead and the most he could lose anyway was $435 so he called.
But the dealer hadn’t noticed the call and dropped the deck on the muck. A ruling was made and the dealer reshuffled all the cards, except Cloutier’s and Krux’s, before dealing out the five community cards.
The flop came K-10-4 giving both players trips. But the turn card was the case 10 giving Cloutier quads and winning the hand for him.
Unlucky for Krux yes. But now for the real part of the story…
The guy who had been having a massage announced that he had thrown pocket 10s – as the player to his left had seen. So the only way Cloutier could win that pot was for the dealer to make a mistake that lead to a ruling which meant the other two tens were shuffled back into the pack only to be dealt again as community cards!
So next time you suffer a bad beat remember this - Al Krux had it worse than you will ever have! Just have a laugh at his expense, keep control and keep your chips."
