Yes. I just doubled up on 2/4, and now I'm on 3/6 table Toledo sitting with $600 top left.

£680 in account from £100 deposited earlier.

Ooops just lost $600 to a retard


Guy calls all-in with QKJT on a 6J34 board. I am semi-bluffing with 4589.

I win with any 2, 7, 4, 5, 8, 9 or club. None come.

3/6 on iPoker plays like 0.10/0.20 on FTP/Stars

Just PLO or is NLHE softer as well?

No idea, I'm not of that persuasion. But I guess so.

I hate raising, missing the flop, doing a large C-bet anyway, getting called, then having to check-fold.

This $1200 hand was what put me on tilt. There was no [censored] way he could call my massive turn raise all-in when he just had top pair no draw on that board.

Once he'd called, I had 24 - yes, twenty [censored] four - outs for the river. And I missed them all.

I have been able to bank many wins over the past month because I've been playing on Betfred, a site which allows me to constantly and irrevocably cash out. Today Betfred was down so I played on a different iPoker skin, Big Slick, which damnably lets you reverse cash-outs. Which means, in effect, I had no way of getting money out of my account, no way of countering the mad gambling fever of having too much money available to play with. Also, I had the pressure of having to go out soon, realising my parents were suspicious about what I was doing, feeling I was playing weaker players who I had to get my revenge on, and that I had no way of getting the money out of the site. So really it's not surprising that I lost.
