This ticked me off on so many levels

I am not big on complaining, but this took the case.

1) Making a "play" hitting BIG and having it blow up in your face
2) Losing to an idiot
3) Being completely defenseless and calling on the river knowing I was sucked out after being a huge favorite-THEN seeing his hand and wondering what he was even doing in the pot and how far behind he reallly was

Me, mid position, no limpers I raise w/ 10 Spade 9 Spade -trying to be creative. One folds, next call, some idiot who plays any 2 even facing a raise and has been hitting many many more than he should, BB calls.

Flop 8 Spade 7 Spade 4 Spade , flopped the flush and open ended str8 flush draw. I bet, both call.

Turn 4 Heart I bet, button raises, blind folds, I know he has a 4, but I havent seen him play 4 gappers like 74, so I think I am still good. But I just call, trying to disguise and ready to raise the river-still worried a bit about A Spade 4, or any big single spade.

River 8, I check, he bets, I call, knowing I am beat. He shows 45 off suit for runner runner boat after calling the flop w/ bottom pair and no spade w/ that board. 97%-3%, my jaw drops.

Idiot.
