pot is now 52$
turn is K scare card since its a club
i bet 10$ once again and get 2 callers this time.
pot is now 82 $
river card is Ace of  now i have the nuts!
i bet 10$ again middle position reraises and goes all in for 95$
late pos. folds and i call, he immediatley flips over A K

funny moment, the whole table, minus that guy laughed

I had a moment like that a while back at my Casino. My friend was sitting behind me so I decided to play a little bit like a Donk that night. Raise in any position with suited connectors, raise on gutshots, etc. So, UTG i have 78 of diamonds and I show my friend. I whisper back to her, "watch this something amazing is going to flop". I raise it up and the WHOLE table calls. Flop is 965 rainbow. Same as your case I flop the nuts. I got callers all the way down to the end. I announce, "Well I flopped the nuts so ship the Sherbert to Herbert". It was awesome. After that, people stopped respecting my raises. It was one of those nights that no matter what I did I couldn't go wrong. Some of us that are really hardcore poker players all experience those nights occassionally.
