Default Re: What do you hate most in your poker game?

After looking at my stash and chips in front of me and have firmly told myself (about 20 times) to get up and leave because I can barely keep my eyes open - I will inevitably flop a medium pair hand and play it senselessly only to be beaten badly. All of my nights work gone in about 3.5 minutes and I'm back to my original buy-in or worse because I was too tired to listen to myself. I can't seem to break this terrible habit.

Justin,

You need to quit poker altogether. You aren't cut out for it. If you hate flopping "small sets, small flushes" then it's time to leave the green felt altogether.

I'll take a set any day, any time, any where....

This is my problem as well. I can play marathon sessions live, but online is a different story. I always think, "i have already won two buy ins and thats more than most people make in a day, I should just quit and go play golf/eat/x-box."

When people peel, catch paint, and still end up making a better low and taking half the pot against my AA2457 fourflush.

Live NL games. The 1/3 $300 game where I play completely ruined the 8/16 and higher. Not only this, but the 1/3 game sucks complete ass. People play tight, don't get out of line with bluffs, and don't really overvalue mediocre hands too much. There are bad players, but they usually shortbuy and hit and run as soon as they double up or leave after dropping a hundred or so. While this is nice, it leaves the game as a rock garden most of the day. People take FOREVER to make decisions in these games. I'd be surprised if I got 20 hands an hour with how slow people play.

So run them the [censored] over already

I suck at NL, so when I go into berserk mode I don't know how to turn it off. I usually win like a buyin from winning every pot for a few hours then give away like a buyin and a half when someone raises me and I'm still playing some "THAT'S MY POT" poker and I put in too much.
