I was sort of skimming and made up my own story involving the floor ruling the raise to $54 as binding with the guy getting no cards, the 87s calling and the board coming AKQT9 for a chop.

you wanna talk a bad beat... how pissed would you be as the 87s guy. that's awesome.

What? A bad beat is when you put your money in with the best of it and get a bad result.
If you're holding an 8 high (which is -EV against 2 random cards if you both see the river) and someone offers to give you $12 in place of running the hands, you should obviously take it.
This guy had the option and instead decided to run the hands. He lost, which was the most likely result. It was bad play, not a bad beat.

You may try reading the posts you reply to. It helps a lot. This was a situation where 87s was taking on THE BOARD, which I haven't PokerStoved, but I thiiiink is +EV for the 87s.
OBV in the OP, the guy with 87s is a GIANT MORON.
