Real Bad Beat

Well the other day i was playing a 5 dollar real money tourney.(I also play real money) and on the first hand i went all in with a AA it was already raised to 1,000 so i reraised all inthree people called flop came

Flop:A59 two clubs

Turn:7 club

River:5 of hearts

three of a kind to a full house YIPPPEEE or so i thought someone called with pocket pair 5s Thats my bad beat.

Where do you play. I've only been outdrawn to a 4 of a kind once in my life.

That is a terrible beat and I don't see anyway of getting away from that hand. You should expect people calling more loosely in low-limit tourneys though so expect a bad-beat like that every once in an eon. I can't say i've seen anything like that but my friend beat a four of kind with a higher one getting 25% of a bad beat jackpot (the loser got 50% and the table split the rest). Last thing to remember a smaller pair is always a 4 1/2 to 1 underdog to your aces which means you are not a sure thing but simply an overwhelming favorite. Tough beat,

I was playing my first $5 no-limit tourney in Partypoker and rivered a guy, it was just down to us and I normally don't make this call but...
