On Party Poker, playing a NL tourny, 11th hand all 10 players in. Table is very timid, and few hands make it to the showdown
I am BB with 3,3
All fold to 5th position, who doubles BB. 6th position calls, and all others fold. I call
Flop is 3, 3, K
Could not be more my flop!
I bet 50, hoping that anyone with a K will call, or at least not scare either away.
5th position goes 200
6th position calls without any hesitation.
I go all in
5th goes all in
6th goes all in
I smile
cards are shown
5th does indeed have a K
6th has A/A
Turn is a K
River is a K
Flopped quad 3's and walked away a loser.

That's spooky how close it came to a beat on a hand of mine earlier this year.
Had 4 4 in BB and limped
Flopp 4 4 Q
I checked, got a big bet and then a all-in by another player to me and I push.
Player 1 KQ
Player 2 AA
Turn = A
River = A
Me = Pissed.
You're not alone man, but nothing ya can do. It happens.
