Aces out

This is the umpteenth time I've used this blog post title. Last night, in the first tournament I played, I had another aces out. I was dealt pocket rockets, called all in preflop, and went to the river against three opponents. Before the flop, I was a 62.29% favorite, and the other players were 4.35%,  12.47%, and 19.46% dogs. After the flop, I was a 3.78% dog, since one of my opponents had flopped a set of eights. Ouch!

In the last three sessions, I've lost 750,000 play dollars. As bad as that might seem, it only makes it to 24th place on my all-time list. I have a hunch I'm going to make some dough tonight.
