Almost perfect hand, if only the third player got a full house and the limit was higher I've played quite a lot of hands and I think that's the first time I hit a straight flush on the flop.

Thats funny, this is how i also hit my irst straight flush on texas holdem, you could post this hand in a recent thread opened by another mobster with memorable hands
Now i play pot limit omaha and hands like that are a lot more common than on holdem, butstill you are pretty excited when you hit a straight flush

Nice hand! In the four years I have been playing online, I have flopped straight flush three times, and seen somebody else flop a royal flush. My first straight flush flop was very profitable, as it happened at NL600 for a $350.00 total pot. My second one was a steel wheel (ace through five straight flush), where I had some aggrotard betting big on every card. Third one was a dud.

No doubt it was an exceptional hand If you could only hit more of those hands that stand till river it would be great. You Know there that you are gonna get paid for sure and your only worry is how much more can you milk from them

Well if you would it this kind of hand more often then it wouldn't be exceptional
That's what's nice about poker, you can play 5 hours and hit nothing, then hit the dream hand and feel your heart pounding again
I've played quite a lot of hands and I think that's the first time I hit a straight flush on the flop.
