So this one is reconstructed from memory. Happened yesterday, but this weekend has been a complete blur. It took me about five minutes to figure out it was Tuesday today.
3 handed FL hold'em. Button limps, SB folds, I raise with 5h5d, button calls.
Heads up to the flop: 4.5 SB
Ts Th 5c. I bet, button calls.
Turn: 3.25 BB
Td
I bet, button calls.
River: 5.25 BB
Tc
I bet, button hesitates, button calls.
Final pot 7.25BB (before rake)
Hero doesn't show:5h5d (for TTTT5)
Button shows 6d3d, for TTTT6. Button wins.
I couldn't make this shit up if I tried  To his credit, he did have four outs on the turn, and he DID have the 159th nuts.
This goes in the books as one of my favorite hands ever, right up there with my quads losing to a rivered Straight-flush, and the time in Stud that my opponent runner-runner-runnered 9s to beat my rolled-up 8s (and yes, that's three "runners" you see there)

Exact same thing happened to a friend a few weeks ago, except it wasn't that extreme (at least the other guy had an A). It was NL though.
He's shortstacked with 99, goes all-in. Two callers, then they checked all the way to the river.
Caller 1: Q9
Caller 2: AT
Board: 9JJJJ
He was way favorite after the flop, ended up worst hand on the river...

The fact that "Caller 2" checked the river makes me balls hurt.
