Another Unlucky Poker Hand
#1
I was down 200 and built my stack up to where I was only down 100 and had 153 in my stack and I'm in the small blind.

A few people call the $2 blind and then I raise to 12 with pocket kings (hearts and clubs), which everyone folds besides for two people.

The flop comes 8c, 7c, kd, so I check and the first guy bets 20 and then the next guy raises to 60, so I'm thinking that, if I push, it's only 60 more and they're priced in. They could have clubs, but I had the king of clubs so I figured they didn't and, even if they did, it's worth the risk, so I push. Worst case scenario would be they both fold amd them I still win a pot of $100 and I'm back to about even.

One guy folds and one guy calls and has pocket 8s, so I'm thinking "this is golden because I'll go from down a hundred to up a hundred."

Turn's a 9 and he rivers an 8 for quads.

What the hell.

My luck is horrible. How the hell does that happen?

Yeah well..I had a straight flush k high and got beat w/royal .. Don't feel bad. Even though it was just funny money it was still evey dollar I'd built up over a few months of winning.. Crying doesn't help. It's just the proverbial farm where nothing grows but fantasies.
