Battle of the Kings

I guess you get to see every possibility playing internet poker in the end and I've heard worse bad beat stories, but they are usually about hands you should have won. Not this time.

Ten away from the tickets in a small MTT, seven at the table, blinds 50-100 and a lot of successful small steals going on. On the button I'm dealt KK. UTG+1 puts in 300, leaving himself 1000 or so. I have him outchipped by 50. The money's going in. He doesn't hesitate (understandably) and flips over the other two Kings.

A few LOLs in the chat from the other players - then a few more salty comments as four hearts come on the board to give him the flush.

Boo, poor me. Take a guess on the chances of that and then highlight the missing text chances4.3% overall - half that each back there.
