Not exactly drawing dead (turn/river 3-5) but still a brutal hand.

Cardplayer interns don't know that a straight beats a set.

MLG's river straight flush to beat a made full house was better. And the fact that the river made the other guy quads is the clincher.

Well worth quoting the man himself I think:

[ QUOTE ]
This is when miracle hand number 1 happened. I was at about 10k when big stack raised to 600 (blinds at 100/200). I called in position with QsJs. The flop came Ts9h8c. The preflop raiser led into me for 1000. I made it 2500, and he though for a few seconds, and then jammed. Obviously I insta-called with the nuts. Time then began to get very very slow. He said something like "uhoh" and I expected him to have something like JT or AA. Instead he turned over the very live 8h8d. To be honest, I was already slightly dissapointed by how little I was ahead, and crushed when the 9s turned. I got up to leave, already composing the title to be very dissapointed blog post in my head. Vaguely I heard my opponent say..."you have outs." And then, sure enough, on the river the magical, unbelievable, incredible 8s giving me a straight flush, and my poor opponent quads. After that my stack soared.

I think we're still waiting for miracle hand 2 etc..
