Kings Never Win
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
David Niedringhaus was on a short stack and moved all in from early position. Brandon Bloom was in the big blind and reraised all in. The rest of the table folded.
David Niedringhaus: A♠5♠
Brandon Bloom: K♥K♦
The Q♥4♦A♦ flop flipped things around, leaving the favored kings way behind. The 8♠ turn and 5♥ river did not change anything and Niedringhaus doubled up.
The players commented that pocket kings have been the worst hand at the table, losing four times recently, and should at this point probably be folded preflop.
