Default Oh wow! Right off the street!

So I sit down at a no limit table and win my biggest pot ever (online or offline) right off the street. I've never even had a tournament cash quite as big as this.

Hero ($25)
UTG ($11.75)
UTG+1 ($39.80)
MP1 ($20.05)
MP2 ($54.25)
MP3 ($31.95)
CO ($3)
Button ($9.30)

Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
UTG raises to $11.75, UTG+1 calls $11.75, MP1 calls $11.75, 5 folds, Hero raises to $25, UTG+1 calls $13.25, MP1 calls $8.30 (All-In).

Flop: ($81.90) , , (4 players, 1 all-in)

Turn: ($81.90) (4 players, 1 all-in)

River: ($81.90) (4 players, 1 all-in)

Final Pot: $81.90

*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $81.90 Main pot $44.75. Side pot-1 $24.25. Side pot-2 $9.90. | Rake $3

That's the funny part for me, these aren't exactly the highest stakes I've played. Just lost $20 of it in a stupid hand. Flop was T88 when I had JJ. Guy in front of me bet with 99, I raised big and he called. Turn was a 9. Grrr.... That's the most frustrating way to lose for me because medium-small pocket pairs are so simple to play. Miss the flop, fold. But this is the third time in recent memory (appox 2 weeks) this scenario has happened to me.

my first big pot, and i think it is still my biggest, was about 75$ at that same limit, but it was PLH.

AA vs a straight vs my flush, the aces waited until the river to bet, I hit my flush, bet 5, he raises the pot, the straight raises all-in, I am sitting - WOW, this is cool, and call all-in and so does AA, my account was down to 28 bucks at the time too.

Congrats.

Nice hand. I probably would have folded QQ to an all-in and two calls figuring a KK or AA had to be out there. Is that too tight?

A7s? Wow.

I am a wuss, I always log off after a big score, I am usually too excited to play anyway.
