Bad Beat of The Week #2 (6/3-6/9) Was Won By @nikdo and @futuremind with the Submission Bonus Going to @homesteadlt. Congratulations! What do you think of this bad beat?

The Hand(s)

#1. Christ, What Were You Thinking?

Description: @christ2169 moved all-in pre-flop. @nikdo, with suited QK, made the call. With a board of 6 7 6 10, @nikdo has an 86.36% of winning the hand. However, @nikdo gets crucified on the river as a 2 hits the board, giving @christ2169 two pair, sixes and twos to win the hand.

#2. Double Murder on the Flop.

Description: @futuremind and @hoodish both get their chips in the middle of the pot after Hoodish raised pre-flop. @gadni calls with 48 suited and pairs both cards on the flop. The double knockout is a painful one at the final table in the @followbtcnews 5 SBD Freeroll on Friday.

@nikdo and @futuremind will be sent a 1 SBD prize. @homesteadlt (@tadas) submitted the image, and has won 1 SBD. Congrats and thanks for looking out for those bad beats! We love that you all are participating in this along with us!

Please help support this new effort by upvoting these posts and voting for the BBOTW every Sunday!

Week 3 Starts Now!

Bad beats are already piling up for this week. Submit screenshots to @michaelluchies on Discord by Saturday evening (the earlier the better). Those selected by Michael and @bethalea will be posted and then voted on this upcoming Sunday. Good luck!

Bad Beat of The Week

The Bad Beat of The Week awards a 2 SBD prize for the loser of the hand AND 1 SBD for the person who first submits the winning screenshot and information about the hand (simply how it played out) to @Michaelluchies on Discord. If multiple people lost in the bad beat hand, the winner of the prize will be the player who started with the best hand pre-flop.
BBOTW candidates will be published during the week. The winner will be determined by a final vote (votes * payout) each Sunday, ending at 5 PM Central during the 50 SBD tournament.

How Can I Win?

Just play and be on the lookout for bad beats. The BBOTW can happen in cash games (ring games) or in tournaments. The higher the stakes, the more consideration a beat will get.

Other Rules

Maximum payout to one player for a BBOTD is 2 SBD, meaning you cannot win for both submitting and being the recipient of the BBOTD. You can submit the bad beat, you would just win for being the loser of the hand.

Each “week” will run from Sunday 5 PM Central to Sunday 5 PM Central, and the winner will be announced that night. Be on the lookout for these posts each week and the final vote posts on Sunday mornings.
