The Cooler, Part II

I mean, seriously. This shit isn’t supposed to happen every single time I sit down to play poker. And the scary thing is, that once the turn card came down (and I had dropped from a 93% favorite to a mere 76% favorite) I already knew I was going to lose and said out loud “here comes the 6.” And there it was…

As Drizz might say, “BOOOOOM HEADSHOT!”

And on the turn…

Just kick me when I’m down, Full Tilt. Real nice. Especially after that other little piece of sickness in last night’s $15K Guaranteed when I got a moron all-in on the turn with K-K vs. 2-2 on a nine-high board and you threw out that 2 on the river just for shits and giggles. I don’t have a screen shot of that one, since my face was too busy hitting the keyboard after the river card fell.

I’ll now return to my regularly scheduled afternoon of screenwriting. Frankly, my characters are far more entertaining than Full Tilt’s RNG.

And I control their destinies.

    Well…at least it’s encouraging you to write. That’s good for all of us.
    Drizz also suggests playing penny poker or a $1 SnG and attempting to suck out as much as possible. It actually makes me feel better sometimes.

    I am soooo there with you. The only problem with Peak’s idea, is that I get sucked out there, too. Meh. Keep grinding.
