Current Events > just had the MOST EXCITING poker hand ever

(+) Yeah! (+)

i've been working hard and studying to make sure i'm comfortable and know what to do in most situations/cards/positions

0.5/0.25 blinds

8 handed, i'm in the SB with a stack of 45.86 (50 was my buy in)

UTG1 calls
UTG2 folds
MP1 raises to 2.50
MP2 calls
Button folds
I have pocket 7s (spade, club) and decide to set mine since I don't expect a 3bet (and i already have a quarter in the middle so i got a small discount lol)
BB folds
UTG1 calls

flop comes: 7d, Jh, Kh

what a nice wet flop....even though I'm first and expect to get good action on this, I decided to open up the betting and bet 5.77 into a 10.5 pot

UTG1 calls, MP1 (the initial raiser) shoves all in 26.75
MP2 shoves all in 15.95

I have both covered. I figure someone might have hit 2 pair (KJ), top pair top kicker (AK) and/or is on a draw (hearts flush)

Since I have to be ahead at the moment (I would be behind JJJ or KKK on this flop), and I'm never folding a set at this point, I shove all in

UTG1 folds (he had 28.03 behind)

So MP1 (initial raiser) had AK with the Ace being a heart and MP2 has Q8h (flush draw)

Even if the flush comes (only 30% chance) I also have a 30% chance to hit the full house, so I don't mind my call at all

turn comes...its red....and it's a heart.

my heart sinks down to my stomach and i start thinking about what i'm going to drink tonight

but then I look closer...and it's the 7 of hearts O_O

so even though MP2 hit the flush, I hit the quads making me unbeatable here

Just for the sake of comedy, the river comes out another heart, giving MP1 (initial raiser) the nut flush....which didn't mean squat

so I won $53 and another $20 quads table bonus

glad to see all my hard work paying off as i overall tripled up in ~100 hand session lol
