Hi team, I played in a MTT last week and got down to the top 4. Chip stack was in 2nd place. Look down on button to KhKs. I raise 3x BB. The BB goes all in.
I call, everyone else folds.

He has Ac,10d

the board ends up with 4 diamonds and he takes me out.

Did I stuff up??

No you didn't do anything wrong. Going all in with KK is always the correct move

Unless they say a re-raise is a fold because he has Aces, you have to play it exactly like this.
What else would you play instead? 9Ts? KK is dangerous, but in this situation a clear call.
There is only one winner, so you have to play some hands to figure it out...

Perfectly executed, but bad beats exist in this game.
Many times, either bad players, either opponents that think I'm bluffing, are calling my AA or KK all-ins with Ax or Kx and make straights on the random kicker.
oh well...

Hello. In my opinion, you did everything right. You just were not lucky. Sometimes this happens, it is poker. Good luck.

You did right, the opposite happened to me. I was on AJs and pushed al in to only be called by KK. I lost and told the guy "good call" then exit stage left...

A call of the all-on with KK, is a good move, at this stage. Things like this happen at poker. At least 4th is a very good position! Well done!

Just a cooler friend. Consider if you just cold shoved. Would A 10 fold 4 handed? I doubt it. This is just what happens in poker. I like the term variance. Still sucks to be on the bad side of the beat though.

Ouch. I hate those 4 card flushes. You made the right move but got unlucky. Shake it off and get them the next time. Hustle hard.
