Showed it down and he had the set of 9's. Impossible to get away from this after only the flop.

Also, during that long session, this happened to me TWICE: I flopped a full house, bet all in and got called, and got beat by a bigger house on the river. Painful.

This is my first post on the site, though I've enjoyed reading your advice. Just started playing this past summer, trying to get better....
