33 KK bubble hand What a pisser!

[imaptone]

My stack was iffy so I figured I was playing for 3rd so I limped. Then all hell broke loose.

I prefer to just open push, but this worked out a lot better than that.

What a pisser? You have KK! If you lose it is annoying, but this is what you want to see in these situations.

I don't think there's anything wrong with this. As long as you can beat SB, you're guaranteed a 3rd place. It would only suck if you can't even beat SB in this hand.

No it didnt sb had JJ and BB had QQ. ** Dealing Flop ** : [ Th, 8s, 9d ]
You can guess the rest.

Hey, it happens.. what do you want, to not get your chips in against JJ and QQ when you hold KK?

Yes it did. Don't be result oriented.

More concerned with the limp on the button when trying to make the money with fairly small stack. Results were 'almost' comical.
** Dealing Flop ** : [ Th, 8s, 9d ]

Clearly this demonstrates why you should just open fold KK in such situations.

All of us go broke in this hand. Meh, bad luck.
