  1. Basically on the bubble, only a handful of players to knock out before getting ITM of the $10k $3 R on Stars, and this hand happens.

    Was my push here with TT correct, or should I have played it differently?

  2. I would say unlucky. You want to isolate with the 1010.
  3. You were trying to isolate with the TT there. Nothing wrong with that. But you happened to run into KK. I chalk this one up as tough luck, as I would do the same thing... Just one of those rare hands where everyone has pockets they can't fold.

    Tim Lock
  4. Unlucky. One of those multiple pocket pair hands. They seem to happen quite often online. Lots of hands with 3 or 4 PPs. Good re-raise to try and isolate...bad luck you were against 2 bigger pairs.
