Ultimate Preflop Cooler

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action was picked up after a hand, with Zen Pool on his feet after heading home in one of the worst ways possible. The board read 37724 and Pool had KK in front of him. Despite the strength of his hand, Douglas Weymeersch had also got all the way to the river, and was tabling AA.

Weymeersch let PokerNews know that he and Pool had got into a preflop betting war, ending in Pool's six-bet shove, and Weymeersch's call.

"I wanted to fold," said Pool as he was exiting. "I'm not good enough yet, though.”
