unreal hand knocks me out of the tourney

Hero dealt (3c3h)

Hero limps, alot of people fold, Button, BB and SB all limp,check call.

Flop comes out 3d Th 6c
Hero bets $1500 Villian re-raises him ALL IN (26K)
Since no pre-flop raises, I call knowing i'll see 10 and some weak card

Villian shows 10d 5c

Turn: 2d

River : 4c

Villian makes 6 high str8 to knock out hero who has trip 3s

I soo just wanna quit poker right now, work over 3 hours, soo close to the money and then that. WTH!?

Just another example of someone who can't seem to fold top pair with junk kicker, then gets lucky in the end. *gag* Hate it, but it happens a lot...at least on FTP anyway...

Ugghh... tell me about it. I can't remember a time I got knocked out of a tournament because someone either makes a donkey/dumb cal to hit there 1%, or push me all in with crap/draw and they hit it against my monsters. Sad to say, but lost that whole $70 from Poker Nordica because of crap like that. Got aces cracked 4/4 times I got them, and to lose my last bankroll, entered a HORSE tourney, 2 away from the money and had top set of aces against rivered quad kings. We both hit trips on the flop which was A K 2. But thats poker, as cruel as it may sound.
