What has been your worst "set versus set" experience in poker?
This cost about 150 bucks in .5-1.0 NL.
This was after playing 10 hours live(Limit+NL).
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I had built my stack up to $2,500 with good play and a little luck (quads, etc.).
I was on the button with 7 callers and had pocket 2s. I call. The small blind makes a moderate raise to $12 and almost everyone calls including myself. The flop is 7-5-2 rainbow.
Small blind bets about half the pot, there are two callers and I make a pot size raise. Small blind raises me and the other two callers fold.
I make another raise and he raises me again. That is when I should have known he had a set.
I go all-in and he instantly calls with his Set of 7s vs. my Set of 2s.
The only consolation was that everyone at the table said they would have lost their money.

M$On the very next hand, I had 10 and 7 . The flop comes 10, 7, 7. I'm all in against another guy really fast. Turns up he has pocket 10s.
Ouch.
