Lame way to lose $55. *NO CONTENT*

[Chaostracize]

Obviously. I'd make a bet with anyone here that AKo is a favorite over AKs.

I was deep in a party MTT WSOP qualifier with an above average stack when I was crippled exact same AA vs AA beat.
It was the first, and thus far, the only time that has happened to me. I tried to calculate the odds of that cruel fate being dealt, but it just made me want to kill myself.
killing myself is -ev.

On another note, my friend once got gutsy and sat down at the 5-10 NL game in a local cardroom and bought in for the full $500. Shortly after sitting down he got all of his chips in preflop with AA against KK and KK, too bad one of the KK spiked a flush in one of the suits that he didn't have. My friend was rather angry to say the least.

It's a fear of razors.

Razors. Raisers. Get it? Hardy har har.
