Unlucky or what?

After the game I said 'NH!' through gritted teeth.
The winner replied 'Sorry man - ty'

Well yeah that is just bad luck. I mean those hands dont happen often, but I am sure you knew all of this anyways. =p

Note to self: Always min raise UTG with Ax soooooooooted.

Just one of those hands that make you shake your head. Thanks to the Poker Gods they are very few and far between.

From the HH, there isn't anything strange in the bets. Nut flush draw against a made str8 (with a srt8 fl draw).

You hit your nuts - and then got them crushed ... ouch ...

You dont already?

and they still ache!

I dont know whats worse:
-Min raising A5s UTG
-Playing A5s UTG

The beat sucks, though.

Wow, had the same thing happen to me, I had A-J spades, raised 4x BB, 1 guy stays in, 2 spades on flop, I continue bet , guy calls, catch my nut flush on the turn, I throw all in. guy still calls. river is another spade and gives him a str8 flush, 34567, his hold cards were : 5-7, happens to all of us. I'm glad it was only a $5.50 sit + go. Bummer , wish u better luck in the future .
