Last night's most memorable hand

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - for me, the most memorable hands are ones I lost. I expect that's true for other players as well. Last night, my most memorable hand was when I lost with eights full of kings to kings full of jacks. The most common way to lose a full house to a better full house is to have the "ignorant end" of the full house - that is, when you have three of the smaller denomination and two of the higher, and your opponent has the same two denominations but with the counts reversed. It's much rarer to lose a full house to a better full house when three denominations are in play across the two full houses, as was the case in last night's memorable hand.
