Is it just me, or does this happen to anyone else?
You flop a straight, and by the river end up losing the hand to a flush, a full house, or a higher straight.....It may be my "bad beat" imagination, but is seems like a third of the time, at least, when I flop a straight, I end up losing the hand. After flopping it, it is hard not to slow play it a bit to extract value, but it just seems like it should hold up more than it does.
