Pocket Kings!

So the blinds are only at 35/70 - it's early in the game.... I get dealt pocket kings. Not a bad deal. I raise to 300 pre-flop... 5 folds after that, then two calls. Out comes the flop... Ah, Kd, 5c..... sweet. I'm in good shape. I check - trying to slow play the other two guys. Next guys checks.... third guy bets 300. I figure him for at least an A and maybe even that 5, or a Queen. Ok.... "All In." Fold from the first guy.... "Call!" and a quick one at that... from the other guy. I knew what had happened.... He was holding pocket rockets and flopped the set. I was done. The turn and river didn't matter.... Off to Jim's Steaks to drown my sorrows in greasy "meat" on an Amoroso roll.... 9 PM and I'm home already; down 20 bucks plus the cost of the steak.

Luckily the poker league goes until Memorial day 2007 and I have time to get the old average up. Oh well.
