Christian - you have a big flaw in your game, and that is you don't seem to be able to deal with losing a hand without thinking you played it wrong. You have to learn that sometime the chips are going in regardless and there is nothing you can do about these situations where you have a great hand but someone has a slightly better one.

In this situation, kentyu's all in SCREAMS out that he has a draw, and ExitDarko could easily have a set, pair and a flush draw, J9 (:D) or a range of other hands (this is .25/.50 remember). I have been known to make some pretty big laydowns and I'm not folding here.

Just stick your chips in, forget about it and move on. Even the best players in the world lose pots like this sometimes. There's no avoiding these situations.

On that note - Chris, you remind me of the guy that went out the very first hand of the World Series main event this year. He raised preflop with TT, and Sammy Farha called him with AT. The flop brings AAT and I think you can guess how the hand panned out. This is the first hand of the WSOP MAIN EVENT and the guy can do absolutely NOTHING to avoid spending $10,000 on receiving one set of hole cards.

Basically, shit happens.
