Well, something very similar happened again today, and again it was for stacks.
I was probably feeling a bit hard done by, as I had been sitting at the table for about 30 minutes, and in that time I had been dealt Aces three times, as well as Kings and Queens - also, three times I was dealt low-mid pairs and hit sets on the flop, and not once was there any sort of action at the table - I had made an absolute pittance from these premium hands.
I'd started with $4.00 and was down to about $3.10 when I was dealt A-K (sooooted) in early-position. I raise 3+1/2 times the BB, up to $0.17c and get two callers, the SB and the BB.
The flop comes down 7-K-7, rainbow, the SB checks. BB puts in a pot-sized bet, and I am convinced he has a King (unless he decided to make the original call with A-7), so I re-raise for the rest of my chips (about $2.80) and he uses up all his time before making the call.
The length of time he took meant he had a naked King, or he was scared that a 7 might have clashed with pocket Kings. I am delighted when he turns up J-K off (the Bachelor hand).
The turn is the 9c, but the bomb lands on the river, with the Kd - making him a better two-pair.
It's just insane how every time I get my money in good against these donkey's they all suck out.
