kings

I've been getting creamed with pocket kings lately. The other week, in a span of 10 hands, I was up against pocket aces twice and lost. Another time, I put a small stack all-in when he raised pf, and he had q-j(s) and flopped trip jacks. Last week, I was in a tourney where a small stack went all-in pf for 10x bb and I pushed to drive out the rest of the crowd. He had 7-6(s) and hit two pair. I swear every time I get pocket kings, I lose. I'm not complaining about the aces, it happens. Just didn't expect it to be twice in 10 hands. But 7-6 and Q-J!!!!!! and it wasn't even the straights or the flushes I was fearing! F'in 2-pair!

i'd be more worried about 2 pair than a straight or flush

It was preflop, I called a guy's all-in bet. So my first thoughts before the flop hits are straight and flush with the suited connector, and the flop has to hit both cards.

Wow, the second nut PAIR, that sounds like a monster that should never lose.
