Overbetting K's or Bad luck? Lets hear it. Im open to opinions, hands like these have been killing me late in tournaments. The $2.20 tourney I was 2nd in chip stacks, after this hand I was out like 5 hands later with J's against K's.

KK vs 99 twice in one day
-
05-06-2008 #2
both are fine and just plain unlucky
(im gonna delete ur double post as KK v 99 is bad enough twice in one but twice in one day in two identical threads is bordering on my kinda luck
)

lol @ thinking all-in preflop with KK is overbetting.

No....its not lol. Whats lol..is the fact that this keeps happening to me. I either play for a couple hours and make it late in the tourney or it happens right away. Either way, I get taken out then or soon after. So thats why I was wondering if I was overbetting them. Because it usually costs me the majority of my chips, if not all of them. When they dont hold up. Should I just be raising/reraising 5-8x BB, preflop instead of pushing after a reraise? Seems like if I raise 3x I get called with anything.
Yesterday I was beat by J7 against QQ in a $25 SNG. He flopped middle pair with his 7, flop was 9 7 3. No flush draws. I reraised his bet and he called. The turn a 4, he bet, I pushed. River gives him 2 pair. I was getting tired of getting worked by hands like these in the $5-10 SNG's so I played a couple $25-35 games. What happens? The same exact thing.

Really? Do you have proof? Share this information with us. We can unify everyones thoughts, and plan a strategy for the collapse of PS. So we can ease this fictitious grip that they have placed on our wallets.
Ive thought about the cash game idea for a while, maybe its time for the transition.
