I suppose part of getting lucky in poker is playing horribly and not losing. At least not too much.
Tonight, I sucked out on Wes all in pre-flop with AK vs KK. Not one of my prouder moments.
Then, I mis-read the board thinking I had a double belly-buster straight draw against G-Rob. In reality, I had a gut shot. Sadly, I hit. Then I rubbed it in. Mainly because G-Rob would have done so against me. But still, that's no excuse.
What's even worse is then finishing down for the evening $113. Really, it's a small loss. But given how absolutely horribly I played, it's a blessing.
So let me say this. Publicly.
Glad I could host.
Glad Drizz had a good time.
Sorry for sucking out Wes and G-Rob. I played bad, knew it, and still continued.
It's a good wake up call for me. Don't drink and play. At least too much.
Embarrassed am I.
Would you mind if I add your blog to tiltedblog.com?
ReplyDeleteIf you are going to get wrecked and splash a few $$ around, it's better to do it with friends than strangers.
ReplyDeleteGood to see you again. I think your performance was revenge of the poker gods for taunting. Note G-Rob's results after mercilessly taunting Otis?
ReplyDeleteOf course, I played horrible as well, and sucked out on TeamScottSmith to get back to even. See you soon.
Made my vacation.
ReplyDeleteI can't thank you guys enough.
And tell miniblood to sharpen up his Guitar Hero skillz for a re-match :)
"Don't drink and play. At least too much." LOL...This is so true! :-)..Love to take few beers while playing online poker, but more than that will be advantage for my opponents :-)
ReplyDeleteDamage control is always important, so yes in that respect not losing too much when playing bad is indeed a blessing. Just make sure you don't play that bad all the time....
