This is one of my bad beats.I have Queen and Jack of spade.Here comes the flop King and 10 of spade,and Ace of hearts.So obviuosly I needed only a hearts for a nut flush and Ace of spade for royal flush and I have already the broadway straight.
This sounds good for me.

Then everybody checks.So to make the game more interesting I bet the minimum for this one.Turn comes ace of diamond.The next thing I did was to bet 600 chips for this and only one call,Here comes the river 10.So im thinking the caller had already a full house.He checks again.And the next thing I know I lost the huge pot.It's probably the biggest pot I've lost in a bad beat.

Again, you seem to be missing out on the signs during play. Of course you were excited at your own hand, and you did consider your opponents, but a little too late.

The minimum bet let people in the game, like checking it's a sign of little confidence in the hand, so perhaps you could have bet higher early on.

The trouble is, you threw in chips before considering what could come down on the flop, what your opponents had etc.

Unlucky you had a good set of cards but you know, you win some you lose some.

Hehe, you perhaps could have outbet him and pushed him out before he say his magic hand, but as I said before and corey said too, thats how it goes. Just try not to let it affect your judgement in future situations - on another day you'd of taken a great pot.
