Mariana Trench hand

Looking at the bar chart of my stack size over the course of last night's session, I can see that I was swimming in the shallows until the final hand, when the bottom dropped out and I fell into the Mariana Trench. It was the third costliest hand of my cash game no limit hold'em career. Here are the top 5:

$-116,250 Kc 9h 2014-11-06 hand   9
$-112,124 Ks Ac 2015-07-14 hand  63
$-102,590 Qh Jh 2016-06-06 hand  81
$-102,200 Ah Jd 2012-06-02 hand 121
 $-97,932 Qd Ad 2013-06-13 hand  53


I had a pair of queens, and lost to a pair of queens with a better kicker (an ace). I'm not sorry I went all in; I went with my read, and that's what you must do as a poker player. Better luck next time :-)
