Yeah, I know I played this hand badly.. pre-flop raise at least.. but still, I had a 75% or so chance of winning it on the flop...

It was a 4/180 man... I was out in 19th... it pays the top 18... typical. Which was sorta the reason why I didn't raise... I figured I'd get a call and I didn't want to put my stack at risk.
You ever bitch yourself out at figuring out what the other guy needs to beat you? I saw the hands and I said 'Yes!' .. looked harder and said, 'Well a ten would be....' BAM the ten fell. It's like I WILL the beats to happen. I should have willed MY card, not his, right?
Maybe that's my problem... I'm exercising my psychic abilities for the other guy instead of for myself. I need to will MY cards into existence.
That's gotta be it. my cards.... (I'm going to bed, I'm tired)...
