Down $220

Ya go in with the best hand and lose. I have middle pockets, he calls AT and flops a T. I have two pair down to the river, he calls every raise and gets his 3rd Q on the river (can you say JOANNE FOLDED faster than an oragami wiz??) I raised preflop 5x the BB. Get one caller (he called with 6-4 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOTED)...and the fuck flops two pair (of course, my K is in there so I flop top pair)...can you say GIMME YOUR MONEY? FUCK YOU FOR CALLING MY RAISE WITH 6-4!!!!!!!!!!!! Who the hell would have put him on 6-4??? He made big raises with high cards (20x the BB with AK and then calls with 6-4? Jeez, puleeze!) WTF!?!?!?!

Say buh bye to my cashola...from my pocket to yours, you asswipe. BLOW ME! I paid you enough to do so.

I hate ring games. Why do I play in them? Why do I play this game (that I sooooooooo love...why do I love this game???) to be called by some schumck with 6-4 and I lose 80 bucks on one hand? Would someone please shoot me in the fucking head?

Thanks. I needed that.

Serenity Prayer for the Poker Player

God grant me the serenity
to accept the river cards that I cannot change;
courage to fold pocket kings when AA flops and I hear "all in";
and wisdom to know when they're pulling a move on me.

Living one hand at a time - smartly;
Savoring each win;
Accepting that bad beats are the pathway to insanity;
Taking, as He did, that fish who calls with 62o and flops trips;
not as I would have it!
Trusting that He will make all things right IF I can keep from surrendering my chip stack for the stupid calls and hands I have no business being in with;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him (when I win).
Forever (until the next game).

Amen.

Life is Guuuuud!

One door closes, five more open. Ain't life amazing sometimes?!?!
