Hey, since there was only a mere 12 people playing in game 22 tonight, and the odds are low someone had pocket aces get cracked, I nominate my Pocket Ks getting slapped silly and causing me to bust the game! Argh! That's worth $10 bucks for sure....or at least $5.

I would think you would have a case if they had been cracked by something less better than a pair (which is what it would take to beat A's).

Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

Still sore from gripping the rail after that hand last night!
Once again, I have more fun playing the Gauntlet.
Playing against maniacs is a rush!
IDEA MAN WARNING!
I think we need a tee that represents the Gauntlet! That would be cool!

I almost cracked someone's Aces last night during #22. I pushed with two pair (Queens and Jacks) vs the AA but alas, he hit his trips on the turn and I go home.
No way!!! Love the avatar Alexos! ah poker. Always best to shove when you have a 74% chance to win.

Those 26.58 pts were exactly what I needed.
I was hoping to get atleast 40 pts, looks like I have some work to do in my last game.

I never give chips willingly. I stole them on the flop. The turn simply stole them back. I was smiling for all of two seconds. I wish Poker Stars would flip cards a bit more slowly in an all-in situation to allow players to sweat it out or celebrate a bit when they are ahead. But, if they did that - they'd delay getting more money I suppose.
Ah well, enjoy those extra points.

Yes I am, as a matter of fact. That's the second gauntlet in a row where my pocket Ks got slaughtered. Oh, the humanity! I think I played them correctly too. I know they're not the best starting hand, but alas, the luck of the game slapped me.
