I play in a monthly neighborhood tournament that has a mix of decent players and people just looking to socialize and drink. Each month we pull around 40 people so it makes it a nice weekday game that’s close to home.

Anyway, was at the final table and a little short stacked. Hand folds around, I’m on the button and 3BB raise with JhQH, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop comes Jd-Qc-Js. BB bets me all in with AQ when he hits top pair. I turn over my boat. Turn comes As, river comes Qs.

He goes runner runner and goes from top pair to Queens full of aces. I was less than pleased.

Definitely not quad over quad or straight flush over straight flush, but it’s certainly one that sticks out in my mind.
