One time I was playing 15-30 against a bunch of hyper-aggro maniacs. It was my first time playing 15-30 and I was playing a little scared. I raised with pocket queens and got two callers. The flop came A-9-5. Check, check, I bet, call, call. The turn brings another A. Check, check, check. The river is a brick, a ten or something, bet, call, call. The bettor announces aces up, and for some reason I forget about the aces on the board and mucked. The guy who called the bet says, I got the nine, and the other guys says good hand. So one of them had a 5, the other a 9, and my queens are going to the muck. But luckily, before they hit the muck, I announce that I had queens (still not realizing I won). The dealer flips the hand up and it's still good, because it never officially hit the muck. I am awarded the pot, but not my dignity as I feel like an ass.
