Suck-out, re-suck-out, re-re-suck-out

This isn't really a strategy post but it's a hand that I particularly enjoyed and I think one or two of you might too.

Particularly good bet out on the flop (I thought!) into a player that I suspected had an overpair to the board.

    It is difficult to fold an overpair to the board, but sixes is brave for an all in here.

    I think he expected to see a large ace of some description and he thought his sixes were good at this point.

    With 2 cards still to come and all in with sixes, if you had overcards, his odds were good but not excellent.

    I bet you screamed at the turn but jumped out your seat at the river.

    All I can say Is 'WOW'
    I don't think anyone done anything wrong in this hand.
    You don't often go in ahead, go behind and then hit your one outer to win.
    Your emotions must have been all over the place during the hand.

    I had a similar one in a deep stack tourny. I am on the BB with J2 off and the SB limps with Ah5h. Flop comes down Jh2h3h. Check and i bet out with 2 pair which is called. Another 2 comes on the turn. Check and i bet out with my full house which is called. River 4h. Very quickly all the chips go in the pot and i exit stage left.  I could  i suppose put it down as a bad beat losing to a 1 outer but the only reason i was in the lead was because i had hit a 4 outer. It hurt losing like that but we all have to deal with these things. Must be nice to be on the good end of it though
