It is really nice T3ddyKGB! The best is when it happens at a higher stakes table where you wouldn't normally play, like NL400 above, don't you agree? Me and my bad bankroll management hehe.
And the worst is when you've flopped the nuts but played the hand wrong so that you don't get too much of it. I hate that...

Trust me, there are weird players in a lot of limits. I have found them in all limits I have played actually. From the lowest to NL$200, 400, 600, 1000 and 2000.
I remember a lot of times where players have made really weird calls (and bets). But probably, I have done the same thing some time without remembering it

Lol, I think it was drunken there with that high card pushed all in
Lol, today I played against someone drunk at 0.05/0.10 PLO8, I came in with $5.50 and left with $21.30 it was a pity to see him losing against quite everybody sitting there, oh I also got huge amount of points since quite every pots was big, average was $8 I think.

u got lucky there was a drunken player or else not many would have called ur shovee i always go for value sometimes if i know the guys good i will push to make him think im trying to buy the pot with an overbet most of the time it doesnt work but wen it does
but i always only play SnGs n mtts so i wouldnt know how shoving works in ring games

Yeah that's great.
I can remember once, I had the nut-flush after the flop. And the pot was already $150 or so and people were betting $50 etc. Was going to be a biiiig pot, that's the best feeling in poker imo. Knowing you have the best hand, and seeing other people betting/bluffing
