Oh come on now, old man. What about the patience and stuff you've been lecturing us young whippersnappers about?

This was the first hand of the tournament, wasn't it?

Why not just fold your KQ to the raise preflop? Yes he was full of crap but you're still in the tourney if you fold.

But as it played out, on the flop the other guy had 2 outs twice so he's about 8 percent to win. You triple up 92% of the time here and you're golden for the rest of the tourney. 8% you're out and can go play a different tournament without wasting any more time. Not a bad deal.

Hey - see my post about not hitting a set today - I wanted to cry when that 3rd ace hit because I knew the LHP had a flush and I needed to get a FH which was not going to happen.

I also knew that the BB had 2 pair or a set on the flop.

Somedays are tought CJ - hang in there.

This has been my worse losing day in terms of good hands getting beat. AA, KK and QQ - AJ flopped top two and he flopped a set of Aces.
