It didn't take long for the disastrous queens to plaque my new computer. I just lost s tournament after playing the pair that has ended my tourneys more than any other hand.
I was doing well. I had played them at least two times recently and won the hands. I thought that the bad luck I received in playing them had been exorcised. Until now.
There was an all-in move ahead of me from a player who had lost a lot of chips in the previous hand. He was called by the person to my right so I made the all-in move with my QQ.
To my left was the tournament chip leader and - as he had the funds to call - he met my bet.
The first raiser had A8, the caller had AJ and the chip leader had K6. I was winning.
But it didn't last.
The board was filled with diamonds and a king. The initial raiser made a flush when his eight of diamonds help him. The rest of the chips went to the tournament leader who had paired his kings.
I finished the tournament in seventy-sixth place. Two hundred and eighty-nine players originally entered it so I had been hanging in playing tight as I had said I would. I just haven't worked out the winning bit.
Yet.
