Aldridge Slips a Little

Ken Aldridge raised to 1,100 from middle position and the big blind reraised to 3,400. Aldridge made the call. The flop came down {9-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} and both players checked. The turn brought the {2-Clubs} and the big blind fired out 2,000. Aldridge folded rather quickly.

"Oh my god! I picked up kings!" yelled the big blind, showing {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. "I wanted the ace of diamonds. I can't really be worried about a diamond, I'd want one."

Aldridge is down to about 40,000 chips.
