Bad Beats? This one is an eye opener shared by Jean-Robert Bellande (video included)

[Shells]

We've all had our share of bad beats, right? Now, imagine losing hand twice in the same pot for hundreds of thousands of dollars. In high stakes poker, it is not unheard of to run the turn and river twice but to lose twice in this case was costly.

Jean-Robert Bellande Shares Insane High-Stakes Poker Bad Beat Video from Partypoker Caribbean Poker Party

Bellande seems to get coolered the most out of any high stakes player I've watched on TV. This was especially brutal because he's only losing to QQ and he's blocking a Q. Honestly I wouldn't have even considered 10 J Spades.

Question for the math people: Would Bellande have been better by getting villain to agree to run it more times? If Bellande runs it more than four times, he's guaranteed to get something (2 runs could go to the straight flush, as here, and another 2 for 10 10 and J J). What's the math in these situations? Theoretically best to just run it once?

I don't think Bellande was involved with the hand. The article didn't state who exactly was in the hand but that Rob Yong may have been involved?

I dont think it was Bellande, anyways thats beyond sick

 

[DS3]

That is truly a staggering hand- one player making two straight flushes, against the full house? Has anyone actually precised the odds? Yeah, I believe you are correct, Bellande was not in the hand...and it looks like Rob Yong was the losing player (always with a smile on his face!).

Saw this on his Twitter feed. Brutal beat. Twice!

 

[fundiver199]

That is indeed pretty sick. The guy had two outs (and some runner-runners), and one came on each run. If this happened in online poker, a ton of people would claim it as proof, the site was rigged

 

[Vallet]

It's fantastic! If I lost like that, I'd consider myself the unluckiest man in the world.

 

[Edgerik]

Terrifying, poker is like that, and you think you have bad luck.

Sick bad beat , cruel way to lose so much money . On the other hand , the winner player got really super lucky , staight flush on both boards winning opponent's full house , wow !!! I guess if sth like that happened in a online poker room , many would start talking about rigged games , unreal winning odds , etc lol

 

[pentazepam]

LIVE POKER IS RIGGED!!!!!!!

 

[IanP304]

I hope who ever won that hand put his lottery numbers on immediately!! Insanely lucky (or unlucky if on the receiving end). That's poker for you though.

 

[muse713]

Whenever I do get a bad beat again (prlly in the next min or 2) I will watch the video to cheer up. That was SICK.

 

[RodderDP]

I cant believ that Rob always keep a smile after that sick beat so horrible.

Haha aint that the truth,ive seen some very talented dealers in my time too though hehe any card,anywhere any time,even met 1 with the end of his middle finger chopped off...i didnt like to ask lol.

 

[Costy69]

bad beat

Thats pretty bad. But ive seen worse.

 

[MoCoSolo]

Why is it being referred to as two one-outers? The first instance of the hand there were two outs, both the King and the 8. The second time, just the 8 for the straight flush.

But, it's already noted that the JT could have also hit runner runner Jacks or Tens.

Those are not one outers.

Hitting that straight flush when running it twice is epically bad though.

 

[Belgiumburnley]

Wow I've necer seen anything like that That's sicker than sick.

 

[Kenad_MNE]

thats the unluckiest you can get in poker... just wow, wouldnt be surprised if it happens to me too
