Don't have the history handy, but you'll get the idea.
Was playing .10/.25 NL on Absolute yesterday. Villain #2 has ~42 and I have him covered and Villian #1 has ~25 if I remember correctly. Table was kind of weird but it was definitely profitable to see a lot of flops and muck if you miss and play when you hit. Almost alwyas a few callers. Anyway I'm deal TQ in MP and limp.
Flop come 8  9 J 
Villain #1 in EP raises .75, I raise to 2.25 and Villain #2 pushes his stack into me. About $39 to call. I currently hold the nuts, and although they are vulerable I call. He flips over A 7
Turn blank
River 4 and I lose my biggest pot to date  I got so pissed I hit my laptop in frustration and it killed it. Had to reboot and spent the next 2 or so hours working to get most of it back, but DAMN that hurt.

Sorry man... but that's really not even that bad a beat. Don't take it out so hard on your laptop...

I know, it was only 65 - 35 when we got it in, but 80 - 20 after the turn. That was just the biggest pot I have lost online. After looking at the history I had like 93 in my stack at the time, so that makes it even smaller of a deal.

After I saw his hand on the flop, I would feel pretty bad about my hand.
Not a bad beat, very standard. Just wait.
(don't get me wrong, it still sucks)
