Not 100% sure where I am - let's say down another $472 to make it an even -$1,100

I had an up and down night in September - didn't post here - but I didn't lose everything.

And then last night sat through the blinds once, never got anything worth calling a raise (limped in once and tossed it)

9 players - $1/$2 blinds - $100 minimum, $300 maximum to sit - about 4 positions away from dealer - big stacks all around the table, I'm about the original $300 stake

I got Pocket K's and raised the limpers that came to me $12

4 people called and the flop came 6-7-2 with two clubs.

It checked around to me and I raised to $30 and everyone folded except the guy to my right, who called.

Turn comes with a 4, still only two clubs on the board - I raised up to $60.

Guy paused and dropped $160 on the table.

I looked at going all in, but knew I was pot committed, and so was he, so that wouldn't drive him off.

Final card come 7 diamonds, so I knew that didn't improve him - he shoved in on me, and I tossed the rest of my chips in.

He turned over pocket 6's for the full boat and I tossed my K's over.

The moment of truth was the stiff $100 raise, but really hard to get away from an overpair when the only thing I was afraid of was A/6 clubs or some sort of straight draw. 

I figured he was overbetting some sort of draw.

The pocket 6's I never expected, honestly.
