Seriously I can't believe this happened to me

So, there I was, playing 5-10 NL online.

There was an interesting array of characters at the table, there had been some interesting pots up until the hand in question. I had a good image, I mean everyone at the table knew, deep in their souls, that I was by far the best player at the table.

I was sitting with a monster stack, something like 990$ I had been completely pwning the table for the whole session.

I'm sure anyone there would have said I was the table captain. At times, people were even asking me for advice on how to play, specifically they were interested in my knowledge of hand selection for PF AI scenarios.

Well, you know, they were lucky to have me at the table, truly they were. Because, I just before this happened, someone was asking about it, but I didn't have to even type a word. I let my mouse-clicking finger do the talking, I made this preflop call. Knowing I was good.

But we all know poker, it doesn't always turn out for the best, even when you get your money in good, here's what happened;
