With a title like this I was expecting a guy to draw 4 or 5 on you. Though as it turns out this is bad seeing as you're holding a bunch of club blockers, but neither of you knows that. But the worst beat evar? Not close.

How can you call this [censored] a bad beat? Ask those guys who bet the title deed to their house or got shot and [censored] back when real men played cards what a bad beat is.

I would think the worst possible beat would be you having a K hi straight flush and your opponent draws the max numer of cards to get a royal flush.

I challange someone to post worse (does anyone else play 5 card draw???). I thought BBV was NLHE only....

He was drawing to the straight flush, and you didnt have blockers for that.

This is from 2-7 TD, but 5 cards were drawn.... all at once... much worse imo
