Poker is Simple: Fold Kings, Call with Ten High

Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden

You always hear stories of players bemoaning the fact that they didn't have aces or kings all day and that they've been dealt junk hands. Players should be thankful for that; just ask Victor Ramdin and Johnny Lodden. The Team PokerStars Pros have differing tales with premium and junk hands.

Ramdin told us that he busted with pocket kings to the diminutive Ole [Removed:332] who held "them", aka, aces.

Moments later Johnny Lodden three-bet a cut-off raise whilst sat on the button. Armin Daniel Zoike four-bet from the small blind and the Norwegian made a call to a {a-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop. Zoike continued for 2,000 and Lodden called before both checked the {8-Diamonds} turn. The river fell {5-Spades} and the German checked to face a 4,900 bet. He tanked for minutes before folding only to be shown {10-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Cheeky.
