That was an amazing showdown. The only thing I can think might have been played differently was that the 4s player *might* have thought twice about going all in. He might have been worried about the Ace quads, but certainly was not expecting a straight flush.

One of the sites (PokerStars, maybe?) has a bad beat bonus going. If you are all-in in a ring game with 4 kings and get beat by aces, a straight flush, or a royal, they will pay you something like $250 for the bad beat.
