I dont think the odds are as high as you might think jolubman but they were both unfortunate ways of being busted from 2 tourns in succession. Pocket kings are a great starting hand but not always big enough to go all in on the ery first hand of a tourn like what happened for you in the second tourn you played. The guy who called you with ace-six on that same ery first hand was a fool to even try it and just got real lucky on you. But do you really want to put all of your new stack in the middle with a current pot of maybe 50 chips with kk? If you get called and the board doesnt bring another king any ace will beat you. I am not saying you did wrong or you did right i am just saying that you might want to look at other ways of betting with pocket kings. Good luck.

My last hand on Sunday's bodog game ended when I went all-in with pocket kings. Someone else had pocket aces. Oh well, that's why they call it gambling.
Even stranger, I played in another tournament later that day and on the ery first hand I got dealt pocket kings again. I went all-in again and got called by A6. A6 out drew me and I lost.
Which means I lost two tournaments in a row on two hands in a row on back to back pocket kings. This is a true story. I have no idea what the odds of this happening are but I am sure they are quit high.
