Cowboys into the sunset

Last night, I hit the rail in the one MTT-R NLHE I played on a hand where I'd been dealt pocket kings. You could say my cowboys rode off into the sunset :-) They ran into a set of eights. Sets are one of the most disguised hands in hold'em. I wasn't too far away from the money when this happened, but have no regrets. If you can't bet your big pocket pairs big, you might as well not play.

This what I had to say the first time I used this blog post title, on December 4, 2017. It applies to last night's session quite well, with several minor differences:

- I was playing an MTT NLHE

- I ran into a set of tens

- I wasn't as near to the money

As you might expect, I have no regrets.
