Prob one of the more gruesome beats I\'ve seen as played
 

So I decide to 4bet this to 3/4 my stack thinking maybe he will see me as committing myself with who knows J9s and go all in with his whatever. When he shoved for like 1/7 pot I just prayed that I would hit an ace or king, but the results really hurt.

i couldn't deal with this on a daily basis and don't know how people do it

Re: Prob one of the more gruesome beats I\'ve seen as played
 

The description makes no sense whatsoever. Would you do the same thing with J9ss? If not, why would he think that you'd do that now all of a sudden?

Re: Prob one of the more gruesome beats I\'ve seen as played
 

OK instead of J9s use 88 or something... the point is shoving preflop was too much to put in imo and this also gave him a chance to screw up since it was an odd play.

I don't understand why you didn't just 4-bet to like 1350? That way he still might push preflop putting you on a move and you should happily call.

Edit: I'm not trying to be a dick or anything here. I understand the beat is gruesome. I just don't understand the play really.
