I know no one gives a fuck, butI need to vent and this is as good a place as any. All of this happened within the last 24 hours.
Last night, 1-2 NLHE. I'm having a good night and have around $550 in front of me from a $200 buy in. I'm on the button and raise to $15 with QQ. One caller. Flop comes 777. He checks, I bet $20. He calls. Turn 8. He bets $45, I raise to $120, he calls. River another 8. He bets $150, I fold and he shows me the 89.
A couple of orbits later, in middle position I see KK. I raise to $15, two callers. Flop Q88. Check to me, I check, and button bets $40. Fold, I call, 5 on the turn and and he bets $60. I raise to $200, which puts him all in, he calls and shows Qj. River Q. I'm actually down to $110 in my stack and I call it a night.
Today 2-5 NLHE. I buy in for $700. About the 15th hand, I have AA. I raise to $20, four callers. Flop comes K66, check to me I bet $60, player raises to $220, I fold, one caller and he eventually shows the 6.
A little later I call an unraised pot with 9 10 of hearts in the hijack. Flop comes 678 rainbow. Eureka! Three of us in the pot, player bets $60, I call, other player folds. Flop K. He bets $100, I raise to $300, and he shoves. I beat him into the pot, he shows 87 and the river is the 7.
Here comes the worst one. I call $15 on the button with A9 suited. Flop comes 994. First player bets $40, I call, and a call behind me. Turn is a 10. I bet $80, he raises me all in and I call. He turns over K9 and of course the river is a K.
I lost enough in the last 24 hours to turn my poker year 2010 from a winner to a loser. Sometimes gambling is very, very cruel.
As I said, I know I suck, no one cares, and I'm a whiner. But I needed to vent.
