I was playing 2-20 spread limit at the Moose on Friday night. I had a great time for many hours, but mainly due to being tired I started bleeding chips. I finally ended up just going all-in for fun with my last $18 and my favorite garbage hand, 7-2 (suited in hearts). I got two other callers.
The flop was 4 hearts and a nine (I think). The two other players checked. The turn and river meant nothing to me and I honestly don't remember what they were. When it came time to show our cards, the guy on my left (Colin) says, "I can't win" and mucks his cards. I say "I can't win either" and almost start to muck mine when Ron (across from me) says "maybe you should show your hand" and turns over the 4-5 hearts. In great surprise, I turn over my lucky garbage and find that my 7 plays and I win the all-in with a 7 high!!
I asked Colin what he folded and he claimed to have a 2-3, but I'm not sure that I believe him. He probably folded the winner and I'm happy for that. I made a slight comeback and got to play a little longer and there's nothing better than winning with a 7 high with your favorite crap hand. LOL.
In tournament news, I made 3 final tables and no money. GAK!

The lesson learned is that you should always table your cards. I have seen the same thing happen before, but not with a 7 high, LOL>
