The nuts can't beat the stone cold nuts

Every now and then, you can have an "unbeatable" hand which nonetheless gets beaten. When that happens, it gives you a funny feeling. I got that feeling again on the last hand of last night's session. I was dealt the ace of clubs and another club, and flopped a flush draw. When the king of clubs showed up on the river, I had my "unbeatable" hand. It was certainly the nut flush, but it was not the stone cold nuts. That honor went to the hand my opponent had, which was also made on the river - a full house. I hit the rail in a daze :-)
