One guy was in on 3 of those, won the first two, went out on the third.
Not the best tale of poker, but pretty darn rare, especially for one guy be in on 3 of five of those!

Welcome to my world.
Last night, had a Queen high straight off of the flop. Bet huge. Some idiot went in with a pair of 9's and an ace kicker. Turn and river? Ace and an ace.
Then I had a King high flush off of the flop. Someone went in with pocket two's, with no two on the board. All in. I called of course. Turn and river? You guessed it. Double dueces.
Fullhouse off of flop. I went all in (by now the last two hands had cut my chipstack in half and the blinds were biting away at me). 9's over aces. I slowplay. Turn and river? King King. Guy had a dog- K 9, for King's over 9's. Sigh.

My worst was the other night in the $3 satellite tourney on pokerstars. There were like 60 people left, top 30 won, i was in 20th or so place. I had an A high flush after the turn, so I bet high. He raised me, I went ALL IN, so did he. He had 77 in the pocket, and 22 on the board. He had like a 5% or so chance to win now, needed a 2 or 7. BAM a 2 comes on the river and i lose it all. Woulda put me in 1st place overall, pot was over 100k. Man i was so mad, hate losing like that on the river, especially to a 2 when i had the A high flush! DAMN THAT HURT.
