Re: Funny KK story
If I've learned one thing about on-line S&G's is that the most dangerous time of the tourney is early. I play primarily at Pokerstars and they give you 1500 to start. In my experience players will put in 10 to 20 % or more of their stack preflop with just about any kind of hand to try and bust you. I've lost with big pairs to hands like 7,8o.
There's not a helluva alot you can do except be aware and try to avoid the pitfalls. Interestingly I posted today on a hand just like this in the Internet category and tried to make a pattern map joke about it. Player with 9,10o called and all-in bet with 3 others and won a mega pot.
They'll hit occasionally and you'll suffer an early exit but these are the guys that you should be thankful for giving you action when you get KK or AA. How many times do you raise with these hands and get no action and are didsappointed that all you do is pick up the blinds?
