Gone, rockets, gone

When I first mentioned in this blog the scenario where you hit the rail in a tournament while holding pocket aces, I dubbed it "aces out". That now seems too pedestrian a name for this catastrophe. My new name for it is "Gone, rockets, gone". Last night, my session ended with a "Gone, rockets, gone". It was the sixth time in my MTT-R NLHE career that that's happened to me. Let me just say, it's never fun.
