yako

Last night, I suffered yako - yet another kings out. In other words, I was dealt pocket kings, put all my money on them, and lost. Three of us went to showdown. Before the flop, I was a 58.6% favorite. After the flop, I was a 75.08% favorite. After the turn, I was a 4.76% dog. I lost to an opponent who'd been dealt pocket queens, and spiked a queen on the turn. This was the 14th kings out of my MTT-R NLHE career. I'm sure there'll be many more, but that's the nature of the poker beast :-) I actually wouldn't have it any other way.
