Default River makes me feel safe...Oh, wait.

A real BBV worthy hand from my friend this time.
Holdem No Limit - $20 BB

UTG+1 ($1,368)
MP+1 ($1,003)
MP+2 ($1,546) [Hero]
CO ($3,118)
Button ($1,000)
SB ($1,783)
BB ($5,497)
UTG ($1,527)

Hero is MP+2 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Preflop: (8 players, $30)
UTG calls $20, UTG+1 folds, MP+1 calls $20, Hero calls $20 and raises $80, 4 folds, UTG calls $80, MP+1 calls $80

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players, $330)
UTG checks, MP+1 checks, Hero bets $160, UTG calls $160, MP+1 calls $160

Turn: 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players, $810)
UTG checks, MP+1 checks,
: _Zekulya_ has 10 seconds to respond.

Hero checks

River: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players, $810)
UTG bets $320, MP+1 folds, Hero calls $320 and raises $966 and is All-In, UTG calls $947 and is All-In

Results: Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG has 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG wins $3341 with Four of a kind: 6s

_Zekulya_ : lololol

Villain was very solid player, my friend says if not for that A, he'd just call the river.
BTW, he wants to find out, what are the odds of top boat losing to quads.
Can this be calculated somehow?

On the internet yet, but in live games it depends on whether the guy with quads or top boat holds the bigger gun.

Seriously, guys, i know this is BBV and all [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] but can this occurance be expressed in numbers somehow?
I personally never lost in such manner in about 300k hands.

OP, just remember the most important theorem of poker that you'll ever run across.

You both have 2 outs to improve. Therefore your hands are equal. This isn't a suckout.

You're lucky villian wasn't rocking undercards, or he'd have been a 3-1 favorite.
