What does Roadside Assistance Mean To Me?
Well I know many have different names for roadside assistance such as breakdown cover, breakdown recovery services or even breakdown insurance, but roadside assistance to me is when a garage or national service provider calls out to my stricken car and tries to repair it by the roadside.By the roadside means there and then, not taking it back to the garage to look under the car to charge me more money, but someone whose whole objective is to get the car safe enough to get me and my family back on the road again.Of course I do accept there are repairs that cannot be done on the roadside and that assistance in this instance would be to arranged a recovery vehicle or tow me to the nearest garage that can help me.

AA V KK Bad Beat
Hi All,
I was playing in a cash game, ?20/?40 no limit, when I got dealt pocket rockets. I was in late position and every one had called before flop up untill the guy before me who raised about ?200. I re-raised him ?500 and he responded by re-raising me ?800 after everyone else folded.
I put him at KK for such a big re-raise but I was obviously leading with AA bearing in mind that AA will win 88% of the time in a heads up, I went all in for a little over ?1500, he called. So now there is about ?3200 give or take a few quid in the pot and we have not even seen the flop yet.
Sure enough he turns over KK and I turn over my AA, at which point I bet he was gutted. But the Poker Gods where not smiling on me as the flop came down............K K 6
Nightmare, he flops 4 of a kind and I know I need and absolute miracle to save me now, which of course does not happen. So, did I do the right thing going all in or should I have just called the ?800 and saw the flop? If I had I would have saved myself ?700 but of course if the flop had been different and I went all in with my remaining ?700 he most likely would not have called if an Ace had come up or a flush or straight draw. If nothing came up then he proberly would have called an all in at that point. I would have to say going all in was the right thing to do, I had the best hand at the time.
Anyway, its not as bad as having your AA beat by someone making a straight on the river with a 7 9 in their hand I know. So I dont know if it really qualifies as a bad beat as such but if felt pretty bad at the time... ;o)
Cheers all, John
