Bad Beat Jackpot
The local poker room where I play, I was at a 20/40 Limit table. I had pockets 2's, and flopped quads. With two other players in the hand, I slow played. The board was 2/10/2/A/10.
Would you believe it, both players called me after the turn, and re-raised me after I re-raised their bets. When we turned over the cards, the player to my left had quad 10's, and to his left had A/K. (why did he stay in the hand to the river?)
Where was the bad beat jackpot? I had to have 8's or better beaten.
I did get a t-shirt and a hat, which cost me about $450.
