Default Re: ($11 Pacific) Fold KK pre-flop?

Well, I feel your pain -- I have finally made my way out of 2 weeks worth of COLLLLLD cards (and I 8-table and play 30-35 sets per week...so that's a lot of tourneys and a lot of hands to be cold). All I can say is that you have to ignore the short-term, focus on improving, learning, and playing your best poker. Most of the time, you can only put your opponent(s) on a range of hands and determine whether you're ahead of his range.

Just as many times if you fold these kings you'll end up finding out that your opponents had AQ and 99. Play good poker, don't worry about the swings, make sure you're properly bankrolled for whatever level you're playing (and drop down a level if you're not br'd properly), post here often, read the threads and responses of posters far better than I am, and the cards will even themselves out over the long run.

Good luck.
