i call every last bit of this madness with 25s after folding hands that missed the flops anyway for 2 straight hours.

my entirely godlike table image is wasted when another 3 hours goes by without a playable hand.

Sounds like me, I run goot for 4 months, start looking at Breitlings on Santana Row...

5 sessions later and my 6-12 poker buddy is teaching me about all the mistakes I make when I play.

[swope]

yeah this is the freakiest downswing ive ever had. normally when i run real bad at limit, i can count on at least running even at plo or nl mtt's, but im getting slaughtered across the board for the last 3 weeks or so. sngs, freerolls, everything is pure fail and laughable grief.

im pretty sure that going to ground for 2 weeks will help, it usually does.

[cowboy billy]

well, I enjoyed my short break from pkr and was really looking forward to play in my live game again

obv I got skull [censored] the first 2 hours, losing a nice 25+ bb, then something cool happened, I looked down at AQo in the big blind, and got to raise a field of 6 limpers, it came back to me capped and we saw a flop of K J 10 rrrrainbow, which seemed like an ok flop for my hand, didn't get much action on it post flop, but it made a nice pot either way

after that I won a decent pot with kings and things started to look a little better for me, but as always the donkeys insisted on raping me from behind

I did make a nice c/r bluff into a decent sized pot on the river with nothing, bc I was pretty damn sure my opponent was weak, but superdonk called with ace high just bc he wanted to know what I had, he was a total nutjob

then the game got short handed and it was me vs superdonk and three other poor players, which was helpful to my stack

the last hand of the night was a fn dream: I actually rivered my opponent with A4 in the bb vs his A6 in the sb, spiking a delicious 4 for my 2 pair on the fifth, first bad beat I've given someone in a long long time

final score: +5bb, nice start of the new month!

The Lobster roolz. Long drought over that is all.

Not all. On last hand before leaving, played 93o UTG and knocked down pot on turn. Won enough on that hand to pay for the evening's beer.

UPDATE- I somehow still really, REALLY suck at poker without realizing it.

any mid stakes degens going to be in vegas from this thursday to the following wednesday that have room on their floors?

[ProfessorBen]

A stupid bitch called the floor to ID me yesterday at Commerce. She was fat, ugly, and preggo.(Beat for her, Bad Beat for the guy)

I raised AJs in MP/LP and she 3-bet OTB or HJ. We saw a HU flop of KQx where I had a BDFD. I raised her looking for a free card or to fold JJ-99. Unnecessary it was because she didn't fold and the turn came a Ten. I bet/3-bet her to oblivion and prayed the board didn't pair b/c she almost certainly has QQ or KK here. The poker gods obviously favor the fabulously attractive and despise Uggos so the river answered with a resounding blank.

I was scooping the pot when she started to talk. "OMG He raised me on the flop with NOTHING! BLAH BLAH BLAH!" I do my customary thing and just ignore her while she continues to steam. Sometime during the next hand, she turns to me:

Uggo: Are you even 21? *turns to dealer* He doesn't look 21 does he?
Ben: *continues to ignore her*
Uggo: No, I'm being serious. You don't look legal here at all.

At this point, she's crossed the line. She isn't floor, doesn't work here, and is shooting a [censored] angle. I'm also little scared because I don't want any trouble. I urge her to quiet down by telling her to "Shhhhhhh..." and put 1 finger over my lips. She doesn't stop and continues to talk to the table and then comes back at me again. This time, I tell her "Shhhhhh... I'm busy trying to stack your chips."

She shuts her trap at this point but mutters that she'd like to run that hand another 100 times to which I thought about challenging her to a HU match of some form, but she says nothing else. However, a few hands later, she walks over to Christina(South/Eastern European lady), the floor, and they talk and both look over at me for a second. I smile and give Christina a very fake, friendly wave. They finish talking and Christina comes over and asks to see my ID. I tell her that before I show her my ID, I want to know why she's asking and relay the story again. I show Christina my ID and get back to playing after we babble for a bit. Guy who isn't too fond of me to my immediate right(because I didn't chop 5-handed) says that I didn't do anything wrong. The whole table chimes in though I don't really care about their opinions.

Lady leaves the table and comes back 6-7 hours later as I'm still playing and she gets seated right next to me. I think about embarrassing her with a line like "Next time, make sure you're right about someone's age so you don't look stupid." but I just stare her down as she tries to avoid my eyes.

Serious business, indeed.

[HOWMANY]

BTW is it standard for there to be a fight every day at Commerce? There was one last night where someone apparently tried to dig into the muck when a hand was over at which point some fat old guy got into it with some other guy and his pantaloons nearly came off.

I really really want to go back and play some more 60.
