Hands that made you laugh (in a good way)

Everyone goes on about their bad beats etc all the time, so I wanted to start a thread where people tell stories of their favourite hands - hands you had no right to be in, but won large sums of money from... that kind of thing.

...I'll go first
£1/£2 live cash game with approx £500 in front of me. UTG limps, UTG+1 limps and 2 others limp. Im on the button with Q3o and for some reason decide to raise to £20. dont ask me why, I guess I felt like "punishing the limpers"... anyway, 2 callers.

Flop was 9 high rainbow - I bricked it. both limpers check and I bet around 2/3 pot and get a 1 caller

turn is a 3...so I now have 1 pair, but probably still not good. again I bet 2/3 pot after being checked to and the villain calls

you can guess what the river was...another 3 and the the villain shoves for about another £300...

I say "your not going to like this", call, and flipped my cards over. he looks disgusted, mucks and leaves. oops. 

Every now and then i remember this hand and it makes me chuckle...

    lol, no, not related... possibly brushed past him and temporarily caught some of his"runlikegod". It was at DTD and I think thewy was playing a £300 deepstack or something...

    anyone else got any?

    lol... saw a similar hand in a live tourney at MK casino...3 handed (final table). SB shoves into the BB (pretty standard).

    The BB mucks AK face up saying "I think you have a pair". lol

     I think my favourite hand i ever played was in a low stakes cash game.

     For some completely unknown reason i like the hand 84. Well in this hand got dealt 8s4s otb. Folded round to me so i raise it up. call from the sb. Flop T 8 4 so 2 pair perfect i fire out and get called. Turn another 4 again i fire out and get called. River J and my opponent shoves on me, i snap call and he shows KK.

    Probably my most redic one, I open with QTdd on a cash table. 100bb deep. BB peels, and donks a Ad xx flop. Anyways he donks for like 2bb so i call on a float. Turn Jd. Well i aint going anywhere he checks, i bet he calls. River Kd he leads for half stack i shove, turns out he flopped like bottom set, obv i hit the most insane runners ever

    I'm sure Donttelmum didn't find it amusing when he lost a hand on a similar basis the other day
    He has QQ and the board ends up KKKxK, and he has to fold to the A high shove. others, however, may have laughed. (not me, honest guv)
