Two beats, one I'm sort of OK with the other......well

Sorry no hand histories - I'm at work and doing it by memory.

Lets start with the sort of OK one - sucks nonetheless.

FTP - $1 SnG

First hand of the SnG

Me AA on the button
Couple of callers on the way round
Boom! Person next to me goes all in.

YOU BEAUTY!

Naturally I call

They show 66

Flop is xx6
Turn is x
River is x

I wanted to retort, vent, but it is a $1 SnG and of course with 9 peeps at the table 66 is an all in hand!!??!!

The other one was a special little nugget.

FTP $1 SnG

Again me on the button. This time with a 99. Early in the piece again and blinds are still 15/30. Called around to me and I bet the pot.....folds all around to one guy who calls.

Flop is 8h,3d,2d. Guy leads off with betting half his chips. The only thing I can think that he may have either a small set or a flush draw. I put him on the flush draw so I go all in to see if he will follow. He calls.

He shows K,2o!?????????! WTF?

Turn 2!!!!
River 10

This just steamed me up big time. I know it is low buy in type of game, but come on when does one call a raise with K2 off suit?

K2 off soot now a power hand?

Sklansky needs to revise his groupings.
