Just now playing in a SnG.

No log sorry.

I get pocket kings. I know some idiot will call so i raise blinds from 7x to 350. 2 people do. (i had 1080 to start hand)

Flop: 882

Great for me, i move all in.

One folds and the other calls with a 5 suited (no draw possible).

Turn: 8

Ok i have a full house i cant lose unless the last 8 comes or an ace.

River: its not an ace, its a damn 8.


Quad 8s on the board and i lose with pocket kings because some idiot called with ace high on the flop.

If he called with A5, I'm not sure that's the worst call on that flop (although it is perhaps a bit weak for 7 BB raise), although it's still a pretty shitty way to get beat.

If the action strongly suggests someone has a boat on a 8882 board...you can tell me to grow a pair but sanity dictates I move out holding A5...Then again, I rarely play A5 because I think it's beyond a marginal holding..
