It's more confidence, but I know it comes across as arrogance when I try to explain it. You've got a point about the Kings, but the thing is, I just knew he had a set, but could think of no other way to play that hand. Can't just check and dump. I haven't reached insanity yet.

And I'll add one final chapter to this. Just started the MWI at Hollywood 10 minutes ago. I'm down to 50 in chips. I refused to fold KK preflop. Blinds 10/20 and UTG raises to 125. I go all-in cause I know he's calling. He turns over JJ and I cringe inside. Flop is 4J4. KK is gargabe. Gotta start folding that crap preflop.

I hope youre being sarcastic here:

"He turns over JJ and I cringe inside. Flop is 4J4. KK is gargabe. Gotta start folding that crap preflop. "

You keep getting your money in as an 80% favorite and the shit will work out right for you. Suckouts happen, thats why you have a br. Reload, rebuy or move on to the next tourney and forget it - you do anything different, its going to affect your game negatively.
