Rubie Lays Down a Bad Beat He'll Remember Forever
Level 6
: 150/300, 25 ante
Brendon Rubie pulled us aside to inform us of a hand he'd just won.
As he told it, he looked down at 
under the gun and opened with a raise. The player to his left, who he said had been folding nonstop for nearly two hours, then three-bet all in for 1,100. Action folded back to Rubie, and it wasn't much more for him to call. He expected his opponent to have

The 
flop gave Rubie a set, but his opponent had flopped an even bigger one. The only way Rubie could win was with the case ten, and wouldn't you know it, the 
peeled off on the turn. The other player failed to catch the case ace on the river, and Rubie was the beneficiary of the bad beat.
