I agree pokey, every time I take a hideous beat, I think of that hand and feel much better. Nothing will ever touch that unless someone gets 1 outed heads up and loses the ME this year.

Pokey, the hit by lightning bad beat is pretty close [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Meh, they didn't mention what was going on in the hand. If he had a royal and someone pushed into him and the lightning made him fold, then....

No, even that doesn't beat $40k lost to a one-outer at a $2/$4 table. He would have had to have died.

And then it would have been close. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Bad Beat Jackpot: when quad eights or better lose, the jackpot is paid. The lion's share of the jackpot goes to the losing hand. Caveat: both cards in both player's hands must be in play.

So (99)99 losing to (78)9TJ straight flush qualifies; the flush Q counterfeits the winning hand, making it a slightly-better five-card straight flush that only uses ONE hole card....

...and it's all over but for the crying, and probably the buying of a new monitor to replace the one with the fist-hole.

Exactly! This is why BBV has stickied the post and basically declared that Kumubou has officially won BBV.

Until the actual HH has been posted so we can verify it wasn't made up, I remain skeptical. People have posted "where's the HH?" multiple times and their requests quietly go unanswered.

Guess this hand didnt happen to me, but one of the sickest i've heard about.

Nobody will ever beat Kumubou's losing just under 10,000 BBs to a one-outer on the river (the awful, awful link). Every other BBV story is a shadow of a shadow of that hand, and always will be.

there is one other that comes close

a 2p2er was the bubble boy during the Stars 150 seat WSOP main event guaranteed last weekend

Site gave away 234 seats... he finished 235 out of 7,377 entries.

I finished 1,508th....lol
