Should Quit
This bout of complaining should be preempted by GCox, who already said it all:
I am especially bad at poker when the cards do not cooperate in the slightest and last night they were hostile like your bitter ex all hopped up on crack. Oh, and yes I have a tilt problem too. Not good times.
Things got off on the right foot as I got set-over-setted for stacks twice in the first five minutes of play. After that, I got into a routine where my opponents just had the nuts every f***ing time for a while. I threw in a couple losses with AK to A-rag on ace high flops and the usual assortment of HOLY FLOPPED OVERCARDS to my pocket pairs queens and under.
Wait, is that even Engrish?
Sigh.
To be fair, I screwed up plenty on my own. I let four flushes get there a couple times. I couldn't let kings go on an all rag board and I fully deserved to be stacked by the guy playing aggro after flopping two pair with 65s. I definitely suck.
I recovered - as usual - somewhat toward the end of the session, but never really got much momentum. I got it to within one buyin before the KK <<< 65s stacking put things back into reverse. Ended up down two which, when added to the one from Wednesday, is hurting since I play on a woefully short "roll".
Note to self: Investigate exactly how much but holy cow do you spew money on small pocket pairs out of position. Learn how to play jackass.
Yesterday might have been the most hands I've ever played in a single day. I didn't record the final tally, but I think it was right around 5,000. That's Rush Poker for you. I played in an evening the same number of hands you'd play in a week of live poker playing 24/7.
It was a bit much.
When I have a losing session, I will frequently find myself thinking that I should essentially quit. Convert most of my play chip collection to cash and use it for something else (like actual cheeseburgers). That feeling usually doesn't last too long but it definitely kept me up last night thinking about it.
I should be able to enjoy the game just fine regardless. I mean, when I started I played for the equivalent of pennies and in freerolls and built up from there. Would I still be able to tolerate that? I don't know.
What happens remains to be seen.
Apparently, I am really bad at poker and cannot win a hand to save my life. Oh, I'm going to continue to play because I like to play, but I'm done even remotely considering myself any good. In fact, I might just start jamming every draw I have and see what happens. It certainly works for most of the other retards out there.I feel your pain, brother. That's pretty much where I am right now as well.
Until next time, if I check-raise you, go ahead and call, I guarantee you'll get there.
