He gets into a hand where he bluffs the flop and turn with just J high, and an opponent calls both bets. Then the opponent leads out on the river, and he CALLS with nothing.
3 limpers and Im on the button with Ac5c. small blind completes and BB checks. Flop Jh2c4s. It is checked around to me and I consider betting my ace high but decide to check it. turn 3s. BB bets 25 and its folded around to me. I raise to 65 because I dont like the spade draw. He calls me and the river is 9d. BB bets 50???? I raise to 225.
BB tanks and then says "I am going to tell you know that I am drawing" and pushes the other 175 out there. I sit there confused on what he meant until the dealer says show them. I show my wheel and he looks sick when he notices that it was the river. He thought there was another card coming and shows the nut flush draw.
I was playing a 1/3 game about 2 years ago at Lumiere in St. Louis. The two guys to my left consisted of a standard 1/3 old-guy-huge-nit and next to him was a younger TAG player. I'd been there for about 3 hours with both of them and not seen either one get out of line at all.
In a limped pot, the two to my left were about 300bb deep (~900-1000) and the following hand plays out.
Pot is roughly $15
Board reads Tc 9x 4c. It's checked around.
Turn is another T. It's checked to me with only the two guys behind me, so I bet $12 to try to take it down. I get called by both players.
The river is another T. I check, nit bets $15. TAG raises to 30 behind him. I fold. Nit raises to $60. TAG raises to $120. Nit raises to $240. TAG raises to 420. Nit raises to $840 (he has about $150 give or take behind him). TAG moves all in for maybe $80 more. Nit calls.
I've never been so sure we were about to have a fouled deck in my entire life. After the nit calls, though, he goes "you got the ten?" then mucks, quietly gets up and leaves.
No one said anything for about 90 full seconds, when the old nit (still stacking his chips) says "What the hell just happened?" and everyone burst out laughing.
If this sounds made up, I can appreciate your skepticism, but it 100% went down exactly like that, with the only the betting amounts possibly slightly off.
I once shoved all in and mucked my hand simultaneously in a tourney with two active players still in the hand. Fortunately it was a small buy-in and after a good laugh the table and dealer agreed to return my push since my cards were irretrievable.

I was playing a daily and 3 bet pre with 77, button called we were heads up. The flop came out A Q J rainbow, I grabbed a stack of chips and before I could do anything else button open folds QJ saying "That was your first raise all night I know you got AA.". Nitty girl image ftw.
