I make a set on the flop, but there are two diamonds. I'm first to act and bet the pot. The next player reraises me the size of the pot. The next player calls. I'm all-in and so are the other two. A diamond comes on the turn to make one of them the nut flush. The board pairs on the river filling up the other one's two pair and knocking me out of the tournament. 2-outer river and the flush shouldn't even have been in the hand. I'm severely frustrated. I may explode. Always out with the best hand (60-40 against both, over 90-10 against the 2 pair if I could have got heads up).

I know exactly how u feel I just lost that way about 2 hours ago at a home game. We were playing limit 5 big bet I had pocket 3s flop comes kk3 made boat on flop bet 2 guy raises so we go the limit I knew he had a k. Turn comes j again 5 each then the river j sure enought he had the k. Bad thing was that was the best hand I caught all night just couldnt catch a break wound up lossing 50 tonight. Not that bad considering they were just winning some of there money back.

That explains why I couldn't understand the grammar in your post.

I dont know if there was a raise preflop but. If there was my guess is hes getting close to the right odds for his draw. Plus his implied odds are good. With 2 people going crazy drawing to the nuts. Some may say its the right move some may say its a risky move. But i think depending on chip position. Would realy determine if it was a good or bad call.
