Bad Beat - No Disguise
I've been running pretty good for the last 3 weeks. I had a $500+ night at .50/1.00 NL, and am averaging 11BB/100 (5PTBB) for the last 10,000 hands. I've had significant variance through the run, so I feel pretty good. Yesterday I lost my third biggest pot, A-high flush vs straight flush. As an actual question, I told Jenn I thought he had it (the SF), but felt that I had to pay him off anyway - dumb thinking, or just one of those hands?
Anyway, tonight I lost my biggest pot so far in my short career. Maybe not too impressive, since I am a low-limit guy. Just thought I'd share my pain with my friends, so they can have a laugh . I had a little history with the UTG+1, so a wee bit of talking to get his chips in. I knew if I told him my hand he wouldn't believe me.

What is the point of raising such a large amount?
My thunder is intact . I assume you mean pre-flop and he raise to $19. If you look at the action, after calling my raise the pot would be $9.50, so he re-raised the pot. Fairly standard, although it really helped narrow down his range...
It wasn't an open raise. It had been raised to $4 by the UTG+2 player (hero). The $20 was actually a limp/raise... which screams aces! Nice catch beanie I'd make that call too with the implied odds.

Myself, best i've folded is QQ pre-flop
