Submitter: @missypurple

Hand Breakdown:
@tcpaikano goes all-in pre-flop. As the short stack, @iabuse and @ christ2169 call. With pocket jacks going against AK and pocket queens, @tcpaikano has just a 17% chance of winning the hand. The flop unveils a jack, which holds up despite a spade flush draw appearing on the turn. @tcpaikano’s hand holds up, knocking out @iabuse and @christ2169.
Voting Begins Sunday
Is this the Bad Beat of The Week? If you think so, vote on Sunday for “Candidate #4.”
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, ending at 5 PM Central during the 50 SBD tournament.
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.
JJ is 17% preflop in this situation. Even worse than dominated preflop heads up. But not by much.
