Guess I should have capped preflop...

Decided to play a little before I went to bed. Glad I did. Third hand after I sat down. Quite a large pot for 1/2. I'm a long time lurker a first time poster and just wanted to share my joy.

Results in White
MP2 lost $21 [ 5s 5c ] (a full house, fives full of kings)
Hero bet $21, collected $70, net +$49 (showed hand) [ Kd Kh ] (four of a kind, kings) 

I think the only thing I could have done differently was to cap the betting pre flop. Actually I tried to but I hit the wrong button lol. Of course with a hand like that it's kind of hard to go wrong.
