Unacceptable Hand

I hate it when people play poorly and beat me. My opponent actually has about 54% equity on this flop with his wheel draw and flush draw but he doesn't re-raise me like he should have (you want to see all 5 cards with that hand!). Instead, he waits until I have 59% equity on the turn to make a bad all-in call.

I have been cursed with having the nut boat versus quads four or five times in my life and tonight the poker goods finally paid me back a little!
