How does 'The Hand of Doom' (aka pocket KK) hold twice here? Bounty Hunter mayhem, 5 head-prizes in

nh's.

Very optimistic cold 5bet shove from the 6s.

Legit range in that spot is AA, and, errrr, AA !

I've often refered to pocket kings as the 'hand of doom', my selective memory convincing me that picking it up nearly always leads to a tournament exit.

Well, I've just changed my mind. These two hands occured 4 minutes apart in a £5.75 Bounty Hunter;
