Vedes Opens The Bad Beat Booth

Tommy Vedes just swung by our desk to ask if this was the "Bad Beat Booth". Well, yes, and no, but we'll listen to your bad beat anyway!

Vedes recalled to us how he three-bet preflop with pocket aces, and fired bets on all three streets on a nine-high board, only to have his opponent check-raise on the river to put Vedes all in. Vedes made the call but was showed a running flush with {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} to send him to the exit.
