I'd do it again... but that crushed my stack and i didn't recover.

i have noticed so often lately how frequently it comes up that someone with pocket kings gets eliminated by pocket rockets.....it is too hard to discard K's....but what can ya do....9 out of 10 times you are going home with this and i would have made the same play

What I liked better was while I was playing that tournament, I was at an NL50 table with KK, flopped a set, bet it the whole time, called by a flush draw, the river gave him the A high flush, but it was the fourth K that did it /images/graemlins/smile.gif he pushed to my pot sized bet and i cleaned him out.
