bad beat

A beat occurs when a poker hand that is statistically likely to lose becomes a winning hand after more cards are dealt.

A bad beat occurs when a beat happens to you.

I outplayed his four Aces with my runner runner inside straight flush, but on the very next hand he flopped the nuts. Man, that was a bad beat.

Bad Beat Infection

"Bad Beat Infection" is an alternate term for "Breakthrough Infection".

CNN's Dr. Sanja Gupta laments that the term "breakthrough infection is NOT "...the right phrase. To me, it doesn't seem nuanced enough to describe what's going on; it only serves to alarm those of us who are already vaccinated, and potentially discourage those who are hesitant."
Consequently, "Bad Beat Infection" is better because it refers to the poker term "Bad Beat". A bad beat is when you have very strong odds in your favor but still get unlucky. it's important to recognize that proper medical vaccines put the odds strongly in your favor and that without them thousands/millions more would die.

"He's fully vaccinated but he was in the tiny percentage that got a bad beat infection. Fortunately, he's OK thanks to the vaccines."
