Man the luck I'm having.....isn't so lucky.

The last two tournaments I've played in was Monday at Homeplate and Friday at Back 9. Friday was
pretty bad. I had KQ off-suit in early position and one guy at my table had tried to raise out of position before I could act. He was playing marginal hands so I thought I could just get him out of the way buy shoving. I was right I had him dominated.....he had KJ off. The flop comes off with two K's giving us both top set. He was dead to a Jack and I was in good shape for a nice double up. Sure enough one of the three J's hit on the river.
Then last night very early, I look down a AQ off-suit and I call and 800 pre-flop raise. The board
comes off AQK rainbow. Wow to pair i bet out and he just flat calls. The hand works its way to the river and I push he calls and shows a set of Kings......what can a guy do. Hopefully my luck will return buy Saturday and I'll go deep in the EPT All-time tournament. Good luck to all others involved on Saturday and I"ll see you there.
