    I should have learnt my lesson ages ago and just started folding KK preflop in all situations. Whenever I'm dealt it nowadays I'm thinking 'Oh no, KK, here we go again. How's it going to lose this time?'. I will post examples below, the first 3 are from the last 48 hours.

    Ha ha ha look what happened to me 



    I can cope with losing AA or KK the thing that psssedd me of was the there was a noticable delay between the flop turn and river (why the delay) if I was a cynic I may have smelt a rat.

    I agree . . .  fatal to commit yourself with a rubbish hand like KK.

    I've pulled the shutters down now, and am just in the process of burning off the freebie brownie points I earned on the freeroll MTTs. Last one I got my marching orders on was a KK shove on my part called by someone with ace-rubbish. Needless to say an ace hit the flop. Why am I not surprised? I've got three MTT's worth of points to use up, and when done that's me finished with online poker.

    Looking at the numbers, the trouble is against any hand all-in pre-flop where the caller holds an ace KK ain't that great a hand - it just looks good. The chances of an ace putting in an appearance are c30%, and an ace and a king together c24% - so odds are 3-1 (1/4) that an ace will show and win (not accounting for all of the other longer odds draws possible). This is the same as flipping a coin and getting two heads on consecutive flips (1/2x1/2).

    If you apply the Kelly critereon, with KK v A? (where there's an approx 50% advantage, 76%-24%) you should only be chucking in 50% of your stack, although in this game players will regularly chuck in 100%, on the basis of "getting it in while ahead". The cause of much frustration and mental health issues me thinks.

    Better cards in future.
