I have a really big pair of .......... beats!

I try not to flood my 'poker talk' with bad beats because, to be honest, no one wants to hear how you got knocked out of a tournament because you can't win a flip with AK vs TT.... its much more interesting to hear about why you made a squeeze play from the BB when the BTN called the MPs raise because you know that MP is a very weak player and that the BTNs range is very wide or why you decided to call a shove with A high because you had seen your opponent be very aggressive with flush draws and have a good read that he always bluffs the river when he misses......

Having said that.... some beats are worthy of a mention... and I think that to qualify for a mention, either the amount of money involved has to be massive (unlikely in my case) or the beat has to be of monumentous savagery.

So... I present to you, two beats of monumentous savagery:
