I wanted to post this yesterday after it happened, but I was too steamed and needed to sleep on it. I was playing in the $2.20 MTT Satellite to the Sunday Hundred Grand, and I found King-Ace in the small blind at the 15-30 blind level. Aggro player in the hijack makes it 150. Now, normally, I like to slow play King-Ace and would have just called, but I knew this guy would call a push with lots of inferior hands, so I pushed all my chips into the middle. I even typed in "all you can eat, baby" in the chat box to try to get a call. He thinks for a minute and calls, turning over Ace-Jack of diamonds. My King-Ace is way ahead! But then the flop came 8d 9d Qc, giving him both a straight and flush draw. The ten on the river gives him the pot, and I'm out. Sometimes I just can't get over the way these guys play. Definitely a sick beat.
