The turn comes up 9, giving him a set, but I'm still well ahead... damned if the case 9 didn't come up on the river.

I figure it'll be a long time before I experience a worse beat than that.

I'm not sure you would want marcvh's bad beat FlyingCarpet. Don't most if not all bad beat jackpots require that the losing had be at least aces full of jacks? marcvh's losing hand was aces full of nines.
