So I was lucky enough to be dealt into a stars milestone hand in which everyone gets several buyins and the winner gets like 12 buyins. I read this, considered it briefly, looked down at my K2o and failed to consider the pot odds. The pot odds of a $25 shove into a $310+ pot. So, I folded my K2o. Which is unfortunate because it would have won.

Sigh. It's late and I'm tired. But throwing away 10 buyins because I think 12:1 pot odds aren't good enough to play with any 2 is frustrating.
Berate me please, I deserve it.
