Live 3/6 game
Sitting on the button with 5h 4h and 5 limpers enter into the pot. I call.
Flop: Jh 7h 6h
All check to me, I bet - 3 callers.
Turn: Js (possible ICK)
Guy in 2nd position bets ($6), 3rd position raises, I reraise to $18. Players 1 and 2 call (1 is all-in and 2 is nearly all-in). Player 3 (sat down with solid stack) caps for $24. I call.
River: non-heart x
3rd player bets out ... I call, saying I'm paying off the fullhouse and verbally declare my baby flush. Players 1 and 2 muck - player 3 shows KJ for trips, K kicker.

I had a simliar one on Thursday that salvaged my night. 8/16 game, fairly loose table 5  6 LP all call, I limp, family pot-9 see the flop.
Flop A Q  9 all check to me, I bet, 6-7 call.
Turn 10 checked to me, I bet, very aggressive player directly on my left raises, player next to him 3 bets, one calls, I call (painfully), other player calls-4 players in for 3 bets, I know I am up against a str8, my only hope is that no one has a bigger draw.
River 7 YES YES YES YES, I check, all check, Showdown, set vs str8 and my baby flush holds up for a $300+ pot.
