3/6 B&amp;M
Had 99 in BB. Flop 555. SB bet and I raised. He made a comment that he was worried about his kicker. Turn 9. He checked I bet. River he checked and I bet b/f looking at the board (then noticed the river was the case 5). He called and won w/ 4 of a kind w/ an Ace kicker.

[beekeeper]

All-in with AQ too many times.

This was live 3/6 when I was still brand new, but it went something like this:

My hole cards: K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. One raise to me and I call (off to a brilliant start). There were maybe 4-6 seeing the flop, which comes (I think) K-J-T. There's a bet, I raise, get reraised, and cap. We lose all but 3 of us. The turn is a Q. The now the two in front of me bet and raise. I reraise. They call. The river is an A. I'm sure one of them has an ace, when one of them bets, I fold my pair of kings.

The board plays and they split a big pot. A very nice old man next to me explained what happened. I couldn't even figure it out for myself, I was so confused. Oh the horror.

This was shortly after I had found 2+2's forums and books. Still a relative newb to poker, but learning quickly. Table was your typical casino $2-4 table, usually 5-6 seeing the flop and mostly passive. My friend who introduced me to poker and 2+2 was sitting to my immediate left. Recalled as best I could from memory.

I'm dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in mid position. I raise and there's 4 callers. Villain in the hand is last to act. Fairly loose and calls down with any piece of the board.

Flop is 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
I bet out, 1 calls, villain raises, I 3-bet, caller folds, villain calls.

Turn is A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
I bet out, villain calls. At this point, I am so concentrated on this river not being a heart. I'm about 95% sure villain has the hearts for the flush.

River is a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
I mutter my disgust and check/call. Villain flips over two random hearts for the flush. I turbo-muck disappointed in my fortune.

My friend and another player look at me and say "So you didn't have an Ace?" I look at them perplexed and say "Of course I did, but he had a flush." My friend laughs and points to the river card. I had only taken note of the the fact that the card was a heart, not that it happened to be the 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Doh!

Too late since I threw my hand away.

[DeuceKicker]

About a week after I first started playing, I went down to the local Casino and sat at the 5/10 table armed with the knowledge (gleaned from an extensive web search) that any hand containing two cards eight or higher was profitable.

To make a long story short, I ended up putting in about ten bets on the river with the nut flush on a paired board. To make matters worse, my opponent three times stopped, studied the board, and looked back at his cards to be sure he had the nuts before reraising, but I never did a double-take.
