My best hand at Poker Stars so far. I've had straight flushes twice before at PS, but never on the flop.

I played 36 clubs in the big blind. Luckily I was in the big blind or I wouldn't have played the hand at all. Also lucky that JicJac didn't raise preflop with the pocket queens. Major mistake, although they would have still gotten beat.

The flop came 457 clubs.

The really beautiful part about this hand is that the A of clubs came on the turn. One of my opponents had the K clubs and the other Q clubs. Because of this I was able to get the turn and river bets capped. I knew it was going to be a nice pot when my check raise was reraised on the turn.

I really felt for the K clubs.

The other interesting thing is that the entire board was clubs. Really freaky hand. My heart was racing.

Pulled down over 13.00 pot in a .25/.50 limit game. Not bad.
