I was playing in a $1/2$ limit and was in BB with
and it was a short-table with 6 people and everyone entered the hand and i just checked. The flop comes down
So i flop the nuts and better yet even if a spade hits I got a Q high flush. People were betting and reraising and im just smiling as i just called every bet, and a spade did hit and another person had the flush. So it was just one of those one in a million times where i flopped that and got paid off nicely.
But the best hand i played to get money was at a 2$/4$ limit game. I raised in SB with 88, BB calls with AQ, and another person called with KQ, flop comes down 8 J J, so i flop a nice boat which is one of the dream flops for a pocket pair. So I decide to slowplay to let someone catch something, anything. Turn comes down a 10. Looking nice now because theres a possible straight happening, and someone could be slow playing me the J but no one had it. River came out a 9, which leave 8 J J 9 10, a easy 1 card straight draw for anyone who has a 7 or Q. Im in first position and thinking to myself k so i stop the slow play now and see if someone tries to steal represent the straight, or do I come out betting. I ended up checking, and BB bets, other guy reraises and i reraised, and BB capped it, and i shows my 88 and won a nice descent pot.
