    Hero (SB): 35,729
    BB: 51,271

    Pre-Flop: (1,750) A A dealt to Hero (SB)
    Hero calls 500, BB checks

    BB bets 4,000, Hero raises to 8,000, BB calls 4,000

    BB bets 42,146 and is All-In, Hero calls 26,604 and is All-In

    River: (71,458) 7 (2 Players - 1 is All-In)


    Results: 71,458 Pot
    Hero showed A A (two pair, Aces and Sevens) and LOST (-35,729 NET)
    BB showed 7 2 (three of a kind, Sevens) and WON 71,458 (+35,729 NET)



    72 cracks my Aces for a $3000 WSOP Academy package. I would be more tore up about it, but I attended the class last week with Dana.....so water off a duck's back.

    The beat is still disgusting though.

    Thx

    Thanks for the comment Scott.

    I sent the pic to the guys at the WSOP Academy and they gave me a free seat anyway.

    So...even though I lost, I still won.

    That's a bargain if I ever heard one. Can I send them some of my screenshots to get into one of these things???
    The secret of success is sincerity. Once you can fake that you've got it made.

    --Jean Giraudoux (1882 - 1944)

    Success is going from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.

    --Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)

    Scott- I think they're having a "get your pocket kings cracked pre-flop 100 times, and your 101st time earns you a seat in the academy" promotion.

    Just refer them to your thread on the forum and you're in!
