Submitter: @PotPlucker
Loser(s): @PotPlucker


Hand Breakdown:

In the @inthenow 2 SBD Freeroll, @potplucker and @petervroom made it to heads-up and they were battling back and forth. After an all clubs flop that came out jack high, @potplucker had the best of it with a pair of jacks. Both players went all-in without a club, and on the river a two gave Peter the wheel (A-5 straight) to win the hand and the tournament. After the turn Peter had only a 15.9% of winning, but spoiler alert – he got there, ripping away the victory from Plucker.

Voting Begins Sunday

Is this the Bad Beat of The Week? If you think so, vote on Sunday for “Candidate #2.”

Bad Beat of The Week

The Bad Beat of The Week awards a 2 SBD prize for the loser of the hand AND 1 SBD for the person who first submits the winning screenshot and information about the hand (simply how it played out) to @Michaelluchies on Discord. If multiple people lost in the bad beat hand, the winner of the prize will be the player who started with the best hand pre-flop.
BBOTW candidates will be published during the week. The winner will be determined by a final vote (votes * payout) each Sunday.

How Can I Win?

Just play and be on the lookout for bad beats. The BBOTW can happen in cash games (ring games) or in tournaments. The higher the stakes, the more consideration a beat will get.

Other Rules

Maximum payout to one player for a BBOTD is 2 SBD, meaning you cannot win for both submitting and being the recipient of the BBOTD. You can submit the bad beat, you would just win for being the loser of the hand.
Each “week” will run from Sunday 5 PM Central to Sunday 5 PM Central, and the winner will be announced that night. Be on the lookout for these posts each week and the final vote posts on Sunday mornings.

I mean, the best hand preflop won, is it really a bad beat? And Peter had 15 outs on the river (three deuces, three aces and nine clubs), which is ~32%, not 15.

Agree. If the best hand preflop won I see no bad beat.

I'll vote for this. That's a naaaaassstttyyyy river... and the river rats go wild!! :)

There was no luck in Potplucker that day!
