Default How bout this for a suckout!

I know you guys dont like to hear bout bad beats and personally nor do i, but i wanna tell you bout one of my favourite suckouts. anyways it was a 20+2 on party skin, there are 4 players left and i try to steal on the button with K5o(this was an all in steal) the small blind goes all in and then the big blind goes all in to, i figure im in so much trouble and at that point would be very happy with both cards live, but realistically i was hoping they both had big cards and my 5 was live. But oh it was worse than that, the small blind had KQ(my K is dead)and the big blind turns over A5(my 5 is dead to) my head drops im drawing nearly dead. anyway i hit 4 running spades and hit a K high flush and trebled up. I worked out how much of a dog i was, it worked out i had bout 3% chance of winning that hand. I finnaly knew how all the fish feel when they perform the most amazing suckouts on me. Anyways i apologise to anyone who hates these kinda stories.

I had this hand saved somewhere and was going to post it for ya, but can't find it.

I am playing a 30 mtt. have a/k suited on the button, utg raises to 1200 I only cold call, both blinds fold. flop is k/3/3. he checks I push for 5k. He calls and flops over k/k. I am about as dead as it gets. My hand did not improve, actually it got worse. And yet I still win.

Turn 3
River 3

I actually felt bad for the guy. That has to be the worst way to lose.

no the worst had to be that WSOP 99 vs 77 hand where 77 flops quads, and the 9s went runner runner to oust him.

I lost a runner-runner to specific cards before (the worst possible beat). My 7's lost to TT on running Ts.

The good news--I still cashed in that tourney.
