Default After reading ESPNs "The best hand I've ever played".....

My question to you is the same..........


What is the best hand you have ever played? Also by the way its a nice short poker book to read about stories, won't teach you much! But some nice stories......

Anyways here is what I feel the best hand I ever played was....... (At a home game)

I was in the dealer position with about 7500 in chips (equal amongst all four players) blinds at, 100-200. I look down and see KK

I just limp, and get one pre-flop raise from the BB to 600. I just flat call.

Flop comes 2 - 10 - 5 rainbow.
BB checks
I throw in a value bet of 750 into the pot.
BB calls

Turn is a 3
BB checks
I check in hopes to trap

River is a J
BB checks
I value bet for 800
BB raises to 3 000
I really thought about it, and really thought I was beat.... I know KK is pretty but something about it! Plus the read on the player was he was solid player.
I fold......

I know this hand doesn't mean much to most of you, but as a fairly still inexperience player it taught me that I can still be beat in uncertian situations.

By the way the other played mucked aces, and stated "I was hoping to get more action out of you"..... He is a very solid player as well. But it was a hand I am proud of, because to win you gotta conserve chips not just win them!

Anyways what is "your best hand"?
