Crushing losses in poker tournaments happen to even the greatest of pros, and that includes Daniel Negreanu.

Ron McMillen had quite a first-time experience playing poker online. In the 2020 World Series of Poker online event No. 9 - a $1,000 no-limit hold 'em 6-max tournament - he finished first. A bad hand is every hand that its playing results are not the pleasant! This means that even the best hands can be like this. It depends from the quality of our game!

Bad Beats and Lucky Draws is your down-and-dirty guide to the world of high-stakes professional poker. Phil Hellmuth, nine-time World Series of Poker Champion and author of Play Poker Like the Pros, presents a blow-by-blow account of many of poker's 'clash of the titans' hands from the World Series of Poker, the World Poker Tour, and the European Tour. Holding 2 and 7 off suit is considered the worst hand in Texas Hold'em. They are the lowest two cards you can have that cannot make a straight (there are five cards between 2 and 7). Even if they are suited, they will make you a very low flush, and if either makes pairs, it is still a low hand.

Rdr2 Poker Bad Hands

This week, while playing in a GG Poker World Series of Poker event, he was streaming as he got a Queen and a 10 and decided to raise before the flop as “a little bit of a bluff.”

Then, Yuri Dzivielevski called, and that’s when what would be a disastrous hand would unfold.

Right off the bat, Negreanu landed a straight. Dzivielevski bet, and Negreanu simply called, baiting his opponent into continuing the hand. It’s a smart play here given that he’s got a devastatingly good hand.

Out comes the 3 of spades, the second spade on the board along with a Jack. Dzivielevski shoves all-in, and Negreanu calls with his large stack, finding out that his opponent is holding 6-5 of spades for a flush draw.

All Negreanu needs is for a non-spade to come out on the river. But guess what happens?
