I was playing the $0.22 bounty on Party Poker. I started very good got one bounty and won some more hands very early in the tournament blind were $30.00/$60.00 i was on BB with K K one guy raise to $120.00 i re raise to $300.00 i have two call. The flop come Kc 5c 8d i bet $1,110.00 one fold and the other called. The turn come 7h i shove and the guy is call and is all-in. He shows Ad 9d the river come with 6d and giving him a straight. I just can't understand that he bet 1,110.00 with nothing.
Unlucky there you hit the nuts on the flop only to lose to a fish on the river poker variance at most a six outer to the river most of the time the Kings will hold up better luck next time.

Well, is there any chance that IceQueenAce was involved?

Quite a loosey-goosey call by the villain on the flop. Betting out 400 to 600ish or a check-raise on the flop could have been an alternative option, generally, not versus this particular opponent.
You might want to consider moving up stakes?

Hey Pinotte! Nothing bad about your play there, just bad lucky. You could have made the 3-bet bigger pre flop, but this kind of player doesn't care about pot odds. He would have probably called no matter what you did
When these suckouts/coolers happen all you can do is NOT become emotional, simply congratulate yourself for doing the right play. We have no control over luck.

Even if u ask the donk what the hell was he thinking there calling your big bet with nothing, doubt he/she could have given u a reason for their donk play, even when u shoved on him after the turn with him only havein a gutter to hit and win which is a faking miracle in it self, he cant give you a good reason for that play, why? coz its a donk play, only donks risk their entire stack on a hand like this, no other poker player would even consider the first call, but i got a bigger problem with the rooms rewarding this kind of play, thats even more disturbing, then a donk getting lucky on u.

I can't realize what was your opponent thinking about when he decided to give you that call post flop. Did he had a lot more chips than you? Having an ace with only the K at the table could be a reason, but only if thos $1,100 were peanuts. On the other side, if it was a value bet, he was just giving chips away. And end up loosing to a straight makes us think what have you done wrong. Nothing!

Let me suggest what the other guy was thinking.
Preflop......."Whey! I have and A and I have another card that's the same pattern. That must be really good. "
On the flop. "There's only a K and a couple of number cards that aren't far from mine. That player keeps putting money in..... I can win a load here if another A comes."
On the turn..... "Still no A but still only a K, and another number card that's close to mine. The other guy has put a load of chips in, so if I do and my A comes I'm a winner. I only paid .22c to play so I'm not losing anything and I think I'm going to win anyway cos I have an A and another card that is the same colour and pattern"
On the river. "Hah. my A held up and I won cos of those other number cards. That other guy only had three K's. My A would have had him beat!" "WSOP here I come,"

Posted by StheP: usualy answer to this is "because you are fish... or because you are noob..." xD
I hate that bro, to have worked so hard to make my chip stack big, to go up against a donk, which i know im the clear favorite, and have him/her donk out on me, just like yesterday i played sng and had this unbelievable donk on the table, the donk play he made was just unfaking believable, he get in a previous hand b4 the crucial hand with me, raises the flop the other guy calls and is left with 1077 chips post river the donk bets 1055 and folds to an allin from the other guy, he had to put in just 22 chips more and he folded We all saw what kind of a donk we were dealing with, so i get dealt AQ i opened 5BB it was just the donk and me left to act, so he calls, the flop AKT, i bet big, the donk shoves i call, he opens K3 the turn comes 3, now i know i wont be winning this hand right then and there, the river was another small card and that was it I just wish i had some chips left so i can go on a killing spree and get back in the game like i have done many times b4, even reged in the next 3 sng same buyin just to ran in to the donk again, but no luck I love when donk call me donk, with me smiling back at them with their chips in my stack
