I don't really have anything to say about this. I just wanted to share this incredibly unique hand that I experienced on The WOO "play for fun" area



Feel free to WOW!!!

Obviously a cynic.

At first I thought, "No person would take the time to photoshop an image of a free play screen and post it on this forum."

But in your defense, I guess I've run across a few of those people that would.

I guess now I should add "Feel free to be skeptical."

I think it's pretty cool, myself.

I've seen some pretty rare combinations "in the wild". I once had 7-7-7 in 3 card, with dealer holding 3-3-3. On the previous hand I'd had 9-9-9, so 3 out of 4 hands (we were playing heads up) were trips!

Play enough hands, you're going to see that once in a while. This hand would pay 5000:1 if you're playing on a table with the Bad Beat Bonus on it. 10,000:1 if both you and the dealer have quads. (Although, I don't know if Crazy 4 Poker has this bonus. I know Four Card Poker does.)

He didn't mean that the photo was rigged via photoshop but rather the game software is rigged in the houses favor. It's a saying that makes fun of the ploppies mindset when improbable events occur.

Not quite. In Crazy 4, quads beats a straight flush. And the bottom hand belongs to the player in that sim. So it's a hell of a win, but it's no Bad Beat.

Quads beat a straight flush in Four Card Poker as well.

In the bad beat bonus offered by SHFL that I have played, you don't have to get beat the by dealer. Either one of you can suffer the bad beat for the bonus to pay.

So it's more of a "two awesome hands" bet than a "bad beat" bet.

The official name is "Bad Beat Bonus", but I've heard it more often referred to as "Two-Way Bad Beat". Either you get a bad beat, or you give the dealer a bad beat.

Exactly. It pays based on the lesser of the two hands. So if you have quads, and the dealer has 2 pair, you still get the bad beat based on the 2 pair.
