Put your thinking cap on!

Quite a sick beat happened last night playing live poker, but does anyone know how i lost the hand? And what the chances of it happening was? And for all you people who think online poker is rigged blah blah just so you know, this kind of stuff happens live as well!

Blinds 1k/2k, i've got 3k and i'm big blind (i just go all-in blind, why not?) everyone folds and the small blind calls with A4o. I turn over my cards and have A2o

The flop comes A66 rainbow. How the hell did i lose the hand after that flop!? Surely its always a split pot? Serves me right for assuming it would always be a split pot i guess ;)

Everyone else actually thought it was a split pot after the hand as well, it was me who had to tell everyone that the other guy won lol

EDIT: was it actually possible for me to win the hand after that flop? Just realised running 2s would make me win i think? Or running 4s for the other guy? But that wasn't the way he won, just saying!

    my guess is on the flop, you to win 3% and your opponent 5%, split pot 92% ??

    anyone got a calculator ??
