Official SSSH LC/NC Thread for November!

[Absolution]

So I played 3/6 live again. I hit 2 pair about 10 times in a couple hundred hands and I think I won once. I ended up down 9BB, but that's with running really bad so I'll take it. If I would have had a couple of the 90+% to win hands hold up it would have been a huge session. I also made some 'online' moves because I haven't yet completely adjusted to the way these people play.

Some more things I've noted:

- Haha. What's with all of the deck washing and seat changing? I know it's a luck thing, but it's funny how it's musical chairs every time someone leaves.

- Wow, there are some real children out there. Some cantankerous 60+ year old dude next to me played for the whole 9 hour session that I was there for and was still there when I left. His wife would come by every hour or so (this went on for at least 5 hours) saying how exhausted she was. His response every time was a bunch of expletives and then something about how he has to win back the money he's lost. Of course, he's not a winning player by far so he could still be there for all I know. One time he got up to scold her, making quite a scene in front of the table and managers, but also lost his balance and fell onto me. He also smelled like rotten mouse and the table in front of him had a forecast of 100% flurries from all of the dandruff flaking off of him.

Another guy that seems to be a regular is a complete gambler. I've met a few of these guys now. He loves to build big pots and then rub it in everybody's face afterwords. He has this really annoying laugh after and sits there with this childish grin on his face. This really bugs a lot of the players. There are some real feuds that develop because of this. I just laugh as I cap my KTs 8 ways. Also, he has no front teeth.

- Live play has the same variance as online play. After maybe 500 hands of live play I've seen a lot of really bad beats. In my 300 hands session yesterday I was 1-5 outered constantly and there were 3 quad hands at the table (2 from the same guy.) It's funny how people could possible say that this stuff doesn't happen live.
