What's your all time most lucksack win you can remember?

I was thinking about some awful bad beats that I have been a part of , or have witnessed, and it actually got me to thinking about some of my lucky ass wins. And boy have I had many.

One in particular happened not too long ago, I was sitting at a 1-2 NLHE table at The Atlantis poker room in Reno. I had turned my buy in of $200 into about $350. I look down and see KK on the button. I raise to $25 to go, and it folds around to big blind. The big blind reraises me $75 on top. For whatever reason, the only thought that entered my head was this guy is trying to push me around. What are chances that he has AA in this position. I take a solid 2-3 mins to think about it...and I actually talked myself into believing he did have the pocket rockets. And that is when my inner donk decided to take over. Despite agreeing with my thoughts that I was crushed, I decided to shove in over the top. The big blind instantly called and turned over AA; my fears were now a reality. I was all but drawing dead.

But BigP's sack of luck was ready to spew, and the poker gods were on my side. The dealer proceeds to tap the table, and deal the flop. The flop comes K8JK2 - I done flopped quads on his ass. WEEEEEE. He looked like a man who just got pussy grabbed by Trump. He grabbed his coat, and stormed off. I raked in my chips, while the table reacted to the bad beat. The dealer said, very nice hand sir. Don't worry about it, the guy you beat was an asshole anyway. I flipped the dealer $25 in tips, and left the table with over $500 in winnings.
