Bad Beat Story of the Day

Sigh. So I was sitting pretty deep in a 45 man tourney in 2nd place with about 3x the average chip stack. I see the flop cheaply with 66. Flop brings 5A6 rainbow bringing a set for me. 1st position, a big stack, moves all in and I quickly call figuring him for overplaying the top pair or maybe having two pair. He shows A4o, top pair weak kicker. I'm way ahead. He needs runner runner to win and I'm like 19-1 to be a big chip leader. He hits the runner runner with a quick Ace on the turn and 4 on the river and I'm crippled and out a couple hands later.

He doesn't even call the next day.

That's poker.
