    I started off with 2 3 on the BB on a 2/4 NL cash game. No callers except the SB I check. FLop comes out 4 5 6 ...holy jesus mary mother of god....first action on the SB....ALL IN...I was like BOOM INSTA CALL! I mean come on.... he turns over 7 8 ....i stood up and took my chair and threw it across the room...pot was $690 I lost around 310....I had my roll at 810 from my first week of playuing online poker from only $50 although i still had $500 I think this is the worst bad beat I have EVER had....never sitting at 2/4 with 6 people EVER.

    Thanks for listening

    ALSO would ANYONE here have folded this? I doubt it...I in no way had him on 7 8 I had him on flush A

    There is only one explanation for this; The poker gods hate you. No that was just complete bad luck there I would insta call that 100% of the time. Tough break.

    If you're playing a game where you can lose more than 1/3 of your bankroll in one sitting, you might want to step down in limits. Bad beats happen, and your bankroll has to be big enough so that you can move on to the next hand with out feeling like somebody just stole your wallet.

    I'd have to agree with craftman. The all in with the stone cold nuts on his part I don't get though. Horrible luck.
