I reraised here and was called by both. Turn comes a 7. I bet next player folded and this crazy guy raises me. So I reraise and he says to me "I guess I just walked into 4 of a kind." He calls here, I guess he just had to see em. River comes the, yep you guessed it, the 9. I got 7/9 in the pocket and 77979 on the board. I kinda felt bad for the guy and he had the read on me perfect so I gave him a chance and simply checked it to him. Finally he makes the right call and checks....we flip em and Yeah he was right I had 4 of a kind....twice in the same hand. I would love to have had a video of myself to see what kind of tell I gave up on that hand. I was trying to be so cool and calm about it but i bet you could see some big stupid smile on the corner of my mouth.

After all, It IS poker!
