Unlucky beat on that last hand i think you played the first one well, sucks that you couldn't fold the jack high flush.

Merry xmas !!

I would scrape up what was left of my bankroll, buy a .22 cal pistol, and shoot myself.

This happened to a friend of mine recently, actually. Lost a huge pot and his ex apparently said something to him on MSN messenger at the same time to push him over the edge. Bye-bye one 17" TFT monitor. We had fun smashing it up the next day with a golf club, though.

Oh yeah, he qualified for the upcoming WPT event through Pokerstars recently. His name's Dafydd, better watch out for him, he's an awesome poker player [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (might be one of the only Welsh guys there!)
