pokerstars Caribbean Adventure 2011 freeroll: How would you feel If you lost with KK to a KTo when you are in the bubble with less than 15 players left before the bubble burst?
Having bested 20000 players of phase 1 of the tourney and again bested more than 19960 players of phase 2 of the freeroll just to lose with pocket Kings to a King Ten off suit.
When the player with KT went all in, paradise just flashed before my eyes. The beach, the pools, the hotel amenities the pocket money and the opportunity to win life changing money live from a prestigious tournament. Oh my god, I said to my self, "I am going to the Caribbean!" when the flop came with a T, then the turn T, then to add insult the river another T. Well when you are poor, reality sucks. :eek:

Chip stack counts at the time? Where was your stack in the list? Blind levels?

Does suck, however, it might had been your mistake. If it was, learn from it.

Ouch! Well, I guess it's back to bathtubs and toy boats.

7 times out of 10 when I catch KK and it's an all in pot, I run into AA. Or some other pair beats me. But still I'm a winning player, so I must catch some really good hands along the way. GL to you

Thank you for your interest, I am not so sure what my place was at that time but I know I was near the bubble and if i won that pot my PCA package would have been guaranteed even if i sat it out.

Never underestimate the curse of regretting what was probably a good move. Reward yourself for good moves, even when they don't do well.
