well, this might make you feel a bit better. i just lost $250 at $.5-$1 NL.

first buy-in i lose when i flop top and bottom pair with Q-7 in the BB. maniacal villain makes a big overraise after my bet, i re-pop it to find out what is what... he shoves all-in. of course im getting great odds so i call. he was playing the Q-9 for top two on the Q-9-7 flop. so much for not going broke in a limped pot


after that my aces get cracked by a very unlikely and hidden boat...


and lastly, my stack had dwindled and i raise it up with Q-J after one player limped to me in the SB. flop comes Q-6-2.. he bets, i push, he calls and shows 9-6...river: 9

250 down the tubes in 2 hours Very Mad

Other people's losses never make you feel better about your own.

How about this one.

Wife and I were at Winstar in OK playing $1/$2 NLHE. She finds JJ pre-flop. Pot gets raised big. It's now her and another girl. Flop comes something like J94 rainbow. She pushes all-in. Girl calls.......... with 22. The girl says something about being on tilt from a previous hand.

Turn 2.

River 2.

My wife was 99.899% to win after the flop. Absolutely sick beat.
