Default My Worst Play Ever- You have to read it to believe it

OK so it was 3am and I was dead tired. I was on a $200 no-limit at the Bike (my usual game, either that or the Commerce game where there is better action, but poorer service), and I was up about $600.

This was last Friday and was the worst play of my life.

I limp in on the button with pocket 2's, there was no pre-flop raise. The flop comes:

2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Mistake #1. I slow play my set. SB bets $30, two callers, and then I call.

Turn is a J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

SB bets out $40 again, early position player folds, LP raises to $100. LP is a loose player, but I don't doubt the flush, but something in me still decides to call. We can call this Mistake #2. SB folds. Now it is heads up.

Turn is a 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Now I have a full house. But do I see it? No! LP bets $150 on what is clearly a flush. I am convinced he has the flush and also convinced that all I have is a set of 2's! I fold. He shows the flush and I nod thinking I made a good laydown.

10 seconds later, I hang my head, realize that I got the boat on the river (although let's be honest, should have I called the turn? Raise perhaps, Fold OK, but Call????) and I completely misread my hand. At that point I got up and left, in shame.

Anyone have any worse to make me feel better??
