$78 pot at 50-cent blinds...
For some reason, I always do much better in tournaments than rings. Today was the best day I ever had in the rings, at Pacific Poker.
I can't figure out if you can print hand historise from Pacific, but I can write it all down for you.
$50 max buy-in, 50-cent blinds, 6-man table

As you can imagine, as someone with QQ, I am crapping my pants at every street. I was happy to get the call preflop, but the reraise on the flop and the turn terrified me. I thought for sure I was beat. There are only three starting hands that could constantly reraise on such a weird board, and queens are the worst of them.
I couldn't figure it out...If not AA or KK, then surely pocket 10s and he caught the set. Or he's a knucklehead playing A4.
I almost laid the queens down after the reraise on the turn. I thought it very likely that he could 99. After the river, well, I was pot committed, no overcards...if he has quad 9s I'll pay him.
At the showdown he reveals: KJs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
