Two unusual exit hands

Last night, I played two tournaments and missed the money in both. The final hand of each tournament was unusual. In the first one, I hit a flush on the river only to lose to a full house which an opponent hit on the river (another instance of a Judas card). In the second, I fell in, was dealt a big slick (a premium hand), made a pair of kings on the river, and lost to a two pair. To get an idea of how rare this latter hand was, of 64,575 career MTT-R NLHE hands, I've only fallen in 196 times. Of those 196, only 5 have been premium hands. Of those 5, I've only lost 2.
