Default A One Outer - For Three People!

This is an old (bout 6 months) screenshot from a tournament I played in, and more the more I look at it the more ridiculous I realize it is. Notice who was ahead on the flop, thanks to some good timed luck (me!), but it's not the fact that the AA runner runnered a flush to win the pot - notice anything else about the river?

It is the ONE and ONLY card in the ENTIRE deck that allows each and EVERY other player in that hand to come from behind and beat me... ludacris, hilariously absurd! I still laugh sometimes at night thinking about it, muahahahha, muahAHAHAHAAHA ::sobbing::

I'm messing with the options, but lets take a poll!

Leave it to good 'ol RiverStars. You stiil had a fair amount of outs that would have gave you the nuts after the flop. That really sucks.

youve seen 12 cards
there is one card to come and 40 cards left in the deck therefore the chance of the queen of spades coming is 1 in 40 eg 2.5%

at the turn you were 60% favourite to win the hand

I've done the math and looked at it - honestly it doesn't bother me. I was lucky as all heck in the first place to even hit a 10!

And the first poll option is a joke, for all you cynical Murphy's Law believers!

Stop consoling me guys, I'm not upset, and this isn't posted in the Bad Beat forum - it's just a goofy, ridiculous hand, take it lightly!

I think it's more funny than ridiculous. Like Fonz posted (which I was about to look up), you were a favorite, but not huge. There was a chance you were going to lose, but the fact that you went from first to fourth is pretty funny.
