I'm gonna knock you out - LL Cool J

Oh knocking people out is SO sweet.  I played another $2 sit n go and knocked everyone but 2 players at my table.  It first started with a double knock out, I raised MP with AQ clubs, get two callers.  Flop is 6c 6d 10c, BB bets, FP raises, I shove all in, thinking no one called with a 10 6, maybe 10s if I'm unlucky.  They both call my all in showing 6 2 off and K 10 off.  6 2 huh?  Never underestimate the players of the low stakes sit n go's.  K on the turn, club on the river, shazam!  Double knock out.  Which felt pretty good because the other sit n go I was playing, I raised with pocket Queens, BB re raised me , I shove all in since I have 10 blinds and it's a turbo, they call and have pocket 7s and there flops that 7.  Good ole 2 outer.  But hey I'm not going to complain.  The other day my 8s cracked AA with a nice 2 outer on the river.  Sometimes I do play a bit too cautious, the player I ended up heads up with, I could have knocked out previously, but i was worried he might have a higher flush than me.  I had J8 clubs, got my club on the river and he made trip 7s.  I could have ended it there, I need to get better at that.  Needless to say I took him down in the end anyways.  

Last night we had friends over and I learned how to play Hearts.  I tried to shoot the moon as I had 8 hearts in my hand but someone got one of the hearts...grrr and I was stuck with all the points.  Gotta take a chance and gamble though, what's the fun in playing it safe?
