Rock bottom
At my first table last night, the guy in the 9 seat was on his second or third buy-in since I sat down. He raised to $15 in late position preflop and got a couple callers, including the big guy who'd river'd his gutshot straight against me (Mr. Bad Beat). The flop came up all rags. It was checked to the 9 seat and he immediately moved all-in. It folded around to Mr. Bad Beat in seat 5, who was sitting behind $500 or more and was trying to decide what to do. The 9 seat looked straight at Mr. Bad Beat and pleaded, "Please. No more bad beats. Just fold."
Mr. Bad Beat folded and the 9 seat flipped up his pocket queens for the win.
When you've got what is most likely to be the winning hand against a loose caller who can double you up and you're begging him to fold, you should get up from the table.
