Default I just had a perfect tournament ruined by bad luck.

First hand of my first 30+3 25k Garunteed. (Won a semi final to the 100k but wasnt didn't really want to spend 100 on a MTT just yet).

Dealt KK UTG. I think to myself: people are going to start off tight, but I can make this look like a steal. So I go all in. It folds around to the BB. I think "Oh ok, I guess I played that wrong". Then the BB goes into the tank and calls. AQo. Flop J T x. Turn K. Yes! A Set! Oh wait.... [censored]. No help on river.

Damn. I played everything perfectly too. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Actually I don't have a problem with it. People are so freaking bad in tournaments that it's probably a +ev move.

It is a rare thing to come upon a way to play KK that is +EV. A rare and difficult thing.
