i got the $25 free for noble poker and the first day was good, i turned the 25 into 48 in one night. the next day i decided to play 6 handed 10c/20c i started with $20 and after about 30 mins made it to $25 then i got 44 in BB utg+2 raises to 70c button calls, small blind calls so i call hoping to flop a set and get paid. the flop comes Q43 with two diamonds. SB checks i check utg+2 bets $1.10 SB calls so i raise to $4.00 utg reraise to $11 and SB flat calls again. so i put utg+2 on AQ or overpair and SB on flush draw and i push. utg+2 pushes and SB calls
SB has 33 for bottom set. i have 44 for middle set and utg+2 has QQ for top set. OMG what are the odds. im gonna go cut my wrists now lol.

Well I have to say your bankroll management was horrible,you play to high limits for your money,and things like should and will happen always,but whit good managment,that should bring you to the bankrupt,I think maximum you could play whit 48$ is 0.02$/0,04$ . Good luck on tables

this thing is common in poker, thats why you need bankroll management if you play at that level with that much money, you'll go broke

Nope. Never seen three sets in one flop. Pretty sick. Even set over set doesn't happen everyday, although I, during the last week, have been in two such situations where I both times had the top set. Good week.

lol yeh as others have said, this is why bankroll management is needed. I actually had a pretty similar thing happen to me the other day, except to of us flopped a set and on the turn the 3rd person hit theres which is when we all went in. guy with bottom set rivered quads lol

Once at pokerstars i had 88, one player had 66 and anotherone QQ, we all flopped sets, turn was a 6 and river was an 8, so i was very-very lucky! That wasn't a very important tournament though..

If you play long enough, you will see them all: Once I held KK, the flop came QKA, turn K ( now 3 players were allin), river A. You can guess the other 2 hands: QQ and AA.
So again: BankRollManagement !!
btw, where is Lutenatik? Ok, i'll say it for him: " Its riiigggedddd, I tell ya!!"

What i dont understand is your check after flop. No point to slowplay your set against flushdraw. Myself probably would lose this hand anyway, but your check troubles me. And dont play over your BR
