i think that you can only whine about a bad beat when you played the hand right. i am not saying you have to play it perfectly, because that isnt really always possible, but you cant bitch and moan when you lket someone stay in a hand and then they hit it.

for the beat itself, i think that you have to be at least a 5:1 favorite after the turn. i dont think that getting outdrawn by a flush draw or outside straight draw is considered a bad beat, because those players probably had the odds to make the calls at the end.
