There's no crying in poker... well maybe there is! Check this hand out from my poker tourney...
I've got about 2k out of my 2500 original stack and am dealt pocket kings in middle position m- blinds are 75/150. It's folded to me, and I pop it up to 375. Everybody folds to Gordo, who calls my raise. Sheets folds in the big blind.
Flop comes 5 J K - Jackpot!! Woohoo!!
Gordo checked it to me, and I bet 375 again. Gordo calls.
Turn comes an Ace - Perfect - Gordo plays Ax alot, and if he is here, I'm loving this even more.
Gordo checks again and I pop it to 600. Gordo calls.
River comes a Queen - I'm beat and I know it already.
Gordo checks and before I see his hand, I throw my trips in disgust. Gordo shows me his TJs and I'm all but out!
I'm boycotting ten jack forever!! Twice in a matter of days that hand has done me in!!
BTW, I'm posting this while the tourney is still going on - once I find out who wins, I'll post...

Looks like you need a refresher course on how to play your pocket kings.

Gordo 3, Tucker 0 :)
Yeah, if you're at all short stacked, you push it all. If you have a decent stack, you grab a random stack of large denomination chips and push it in, not knowing how much you even pushed! ;-)
I thought it was pretty cool when Gordo knocked Tuck out because I had Gordo in my Fantasy Poker League.
I knocked out two people, but not Tucker. Tim rivered me when Tucker went all in on the hand after this one that was described.
I'm hearing that the fantasy experts are saying to sit me this week. Then again, they say that every week.
