Pocket Kings don't always grow up to be cowboys..

I would like to share with you, three hands, all within a relatively short period of time, and all within the same MTT....on UB.

The first and most heartbreaking, crippled me good....

I won that one, not much, but still.. i went on to finish 54th, 14 shy of the money..no bad plays all that much... really didn't need to take any chances, but, what the hell, if i had won that hand I busted out on, I would have been in first place by about 5k chips...

Those above hands all happened within 30 hands and within 30 minutes.... the reason I am sharing, if you have not already noticed... three times I have pocket kings, three times the board flops two aces.....

One more hand from UB, cuz its the first one I ever saw, online.....

had a really bad weekend at PP playing 10+1 tournys... just couldn't finish ITM enuff to get ahead... my lil profit from last week is down to 3 bucks.. and I loath to put any more money into party at this time... some of the profit I put into UB and am doing fairly well there playing 10 player ring games, .25/.50.. mainly to work off a $100 dollar bonus.. which is going to take awhile, but, I got enuff earned now to play two tables, so the time is now cut in half....if it works out the way I plan and hope, I'll end up with the 100 bucks, plus a lil more, and then can start losing on PP again.... :)
