That's just brutal!

Treeman 69.. What happened to u with a10 against kk is not a bad beat at all, it is the total opposite

aces full of 8s against quads is a bad beat

or any hand your in when your sure to win but get sucked out

IMO this is NOT a bad beat.

A bad beat imo is when you are significantly ahead when money goes in the pot but you lose to the remaining cards.

Ex. Say you hold 33.

Pre Flop Oppo bets to 3BB and you call.
Flop comes 23T rainbow.
you make a 1/2 pot bet oppo raises you all in and shows AA.
Well you are significantly ahead but he can still catch one of his two outs, if he catches one of these outs that is a bad beat.

that is not a bad beat its a snap my laptop in half.
