Total fucking pisstake.

The title says it all really. Totally gutted about todays play, its been nothing short of scandalous, where the worst players on the table continuously manage to suckout and win time after time. I cant bring myself to even go into hand specifics, I am too annoyed with people I have played against. All I can say is, sometimes I question whether or not people can actually know the outcome of a hand before its played.

I like to think I know the outcome of a hand, its called getting your money in when in front - but today the odds have been non existant. I should of just popped it all in with Ace rag every hand and won about 46 thousand dollars today, it seems to work for every other fucker.

Still, thats what the bankroll is for. I am about 1 tournament buyin in profit for this week. As a result, I am totally hacked off as I've played tremendously well today only to get bummed by the bastards that dont know what they're doing.

I mean really, if you want to gamble - thats what Casino's and horses are for. Why bring it to poker. Either I'm shit or somebody isn't telling me something about this game because I seem to be getting fucked with the best of it constantly.

Yesterday was a good session, but its all been undone today. Its not even as if today was a totally washout. I played 10 tournaments today, cashed in 2 of them. Was severely card dead in 6 of them and went out to stone cold coolers in at least 5 of them.

My personal favourite was this hand:

I get dealt K2 in big blind. 1 limper and small blind in the hand with me.

Flop comes

K 3 2 rainbow.

I check it, the table flop better pops in just over a pot sized bet. I reraise all in and he insta calls with K 4.

turn

BLANK

river

4

What the fuck can you do?

K2 is a hand I'd never ever ever usually be playing in any circumstances - but when that shit gets dealt out to you with that flop, just what the fuck am I supposed to do? This is a tournament afterall.

My other personal favourite was when blinds were at 100 / 200.

A guy who has raised pretty much every hand decides to raise my blind. I look down to find JJ. I reraise all in and he calls with the new stone cold nuts, A 2 offsuit.

No need to guess what the outcome was, aces came every fucking where and despite the fact that we were both deepstacked and if he lost that hand - he'd be severely in trouble since he only just had me covered and not to mention the fact he wasnt beating ANYTHING.

He still decided to call.

Totally fucked off now. Time to go to work and it will be a welcome break from the sickness.
