He had to hit running hearts. That was like 4%!! I'm not going to fold for 4% chance of hitting his flush. He did have the OESD but I was still a 70% favorite. The jacks were completely crushed. The jacks would only win 3% of the time and the 8/9 only 30%. This is more of a bad beat then anything but I'm thinking I may should have moved all in pre-flop. This things happen, I know.

TBH, .01/.02 don't play much different from the play money tables at times and this looks like one of those times.
If you want somewhat of a quality game at that level, pick a table that has less players per flop, but that's just my opinion.:)

Keep getting your stack in as a 70% favourite and you will win a LOT of money.. You had a huge hand and were crushing the other guys... You cant win them all. You played it fine, when the money went it you were ahead. That is all you can do. You cant control the cards. Well played :)
