Better to be Lucky than Good

Patrik Selin is up to over 180k after doubling through the unlucky Fabian Quoss. Quoss opened to 3,800 from the hijack to face a 11,000 three-bet from Selin in the SB. Quoss asked for a count of his opponent's stack and when he found out it was about 90,000 he four-bet to 30,000. Very quickly Selim moved all-in and Quoss shook his head and groaned. He was halfway through asking for an exact count but then an called. Show down:

Selin: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Quoss: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Selin smiled at being slightly caught at it and said "It's okay, I'm lucky. I'm lucky."

The board ran {2-Spades}{3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{q-Spades} to make trips for Selin. Quoss shook his head while Selin continued "It's better to be lucky than good!"

Quoss counted out the extra he needed to pay and then stared down at his decimated stack which is currently at 27,000.
