The Worst Beat/Cooler I've Ever Had

[BguitarH]

Ok, so a few weeks ago I'm playing .25/.50 NL cash at our regular home game. I realize this is smaller than your C-bus cashies but please read on, I've got broke friends. This hand comes up a few hours into the game:

Villain # 1 ($30ish stack - HYPER AGGRESSO) raises to $2 in the cutoff.

I'm in the small blind ($50ish stack, playing LAG) with and just call knowing Villain #1 will call any reraise in position with ATC.

Villain # 2 ($80ish stack - a good LAG player) also calls from the BB.

Flop - <-------- BINGO!!!!

I check, Villain # 2 checks, and surprisingly Villain # 1 DOESN'T continuation bet.

Turn -

I check knowing Villain #1 will fire here, Villain # 2 checks, Villain # 1 bets $4

I think this through and decide there is no card I should be scared of on the river. Villain #1's flop check throws out an over pair, and if he's got a 3 we're playing a big pot regardless.

I just call, and Villain # 2 calls as well (obvious 5 IMO).

River -

I really like this card as I think Villain #2 now has 5s full of 3s and will stack off to me. I think and lead for $8

Villain # 2 thinks for quite awhile and raises to $20

Villain # 1 quickly folds.

I quickly shove in for roughly $20 more and Villain # 2 quickly calls.

I stand up and slam down my 8s over 5s and pump my fist in celebration.

Villain # 2 looks at my reaction in amusement for 2 or 3 seconds and rolls over...

<---- BRUTAL!
