After reading this thread, I played the following hand (1/2NL Pokerstars):

I start the hand with $355, opponent has over $300 also.

I'm in the BB w/ K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. There are 4 limpers around to me...I raise to $11. UTG limper calls, everyone else folds.

Flop is J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

I bet $15 and he raises to $298. What could he have? Maybe a set, but why the hell would he raise so much? After coming close to not following my own advise about folding, I finally come to my senses and lay it down.

I type "nice bet, i guess"...he shows me Q9 for the flopped nut straight. Then he types "i didn't want you sucking out a flush on me".

Stunning.
