A Pat on the Back for Good Luck

Level 14 : 1,200/3,400, 400 ante

Jonas ten Cate isn't doing to good. Well, poker wise that is. He's was looking quite sad and asked for a pat on the back for good luck. We gave him one, in return for some context.

Ten Cate told us he first lost {A-}{Q-} to {A-}{3-}, then {K-}{K-} against {A-}{Q-}, and to top it all of {8-}{8-} versus a raging Frenchman's {K-}{J-} off suit.

Comeback time!
