Three straight flushes today in <1000 hands.

We all know that Q-5o has excellent straight flush potential:



Oh, and yes, I play on Party with an ugly World Cup 2006 theme.

Ok, the next one I don't have a screenshot for, because I had a bit of a "Tuff Fish" moment, and didn't realize that I in fact did have a straight flush.

I do have the hand history though:

At this point I think I have an 8 high flush, and figure there's a very good chance my opponent has just hit a higher flush or made a full house, so I play it safe and flat call.

Catherina82 calls [$4]
mfang shows [ Qc, Kc ]a flush, King high.
Catherina82 shows [ 7c, 8c ]a straight flush, Ten high.
Catherina82 wins $48 from the main pot with a straight flush, Ten high.

I was seriously like "wtf!?!?? why are they pushing the pot to me?"

Looked back at the hand history and saw my error!

Oh well, $8 of value wasted... I guess I'll just have to make another straight flush later then:
