TurnDawg55 Down

Jul 4, 2008 04:56 PM. Post 1
Ladies & Gents... We've lost our dear TurnDawg55.
Not long after losing a big pot versus an opponent with pocket aces, TurnDawg55 found himself tangling with exactly the same opponent -- who amazingly once again was sitting on pocket rockets.
His opponent raised to 600 pre-flop and TurnDawg55 looked down to find KK, and bumped it up to 2,000. His opponent re-raised enough to put TurnDawg55 all-in, and after mulling his options, TurnDawg55 finally made the call. He was too short-stacked to lay down kings in that spot and besides, what are the odds his nemesis would have aces?
Unfortunately that's exactly the hand his opponent hand -- pocket aces -- but wait, the poker gods had one final twist. The flop came K 6 3, all diamonds, so TurnDawg55 hit his miracle two-outer for top set and the lead, but his opponent held the A of diamonds, so TurnDawg55 still had to dodge some cards.
The turn was a diamond, giving his opponent a flush, and the river wasn't a king and didn't pair the board, sealing TurnDawg55's fate and sending him to the rails.
TurnDawg55 making the long slow walk down the hallway.

Tough break, TurnDawg55, and there's really no other way to play the hand. Sometimes the cards go your way and sometimes they don't, and today just didn't seem to be his day.
