Stupid River

[PuckJunkieNY]

Ok, last night after my internet connection was lost during home stretch of tourney (see my Damn! Damn! Damn! post) I decided to play a ring game b4 going to bed. I buy in w/only $10 this time...win a few, lose a few. Decide to play until BB is about to hit me. The hand before it does (therefore my last) i get KJs, I limp, one raise 2x the BB (bb was .25). one other caller besides me. Flop comes K J 7 rainbow....whoopie! P-flop raiser bet $1, other dude calls, I raise all-in $8.....they each call (both have larger stack so play goes on). Turn = Q (OK I can deal w/it)...no betting. River = 10, CRAP!.....both go all-in....original raiser dude flips AA for the straight! Other dude mucks....Mr. AA appoligizes...I say "thats UB" ....I go to bed with w/a slight chip on my shoulder.

OK It's out of my system now...thanks.

No biggie really...only lost $10
I really write this stuff down as an outlet...Sometimes I'll write it out, but not even post it cuz it's served it purpose already.

I do the same thing sometimes. By the time i finish writing out a huge long story ill say to myself..."that wasnt that bad after all" and just not post it

BUMMER Ninja.
How has your first 24 hours gone at UB with real $ in your account?

Good...then bad...played some SnGs (mistake) so I'm down a little-but I'll bring it back up playing micro-limit. I can 2x the Max Bet almost always there.

You gotta love the river, right? I was playing a NL points table, and was up a few hundred to like 1500. Im one to the left of the BB, decide that this is my last hand before the cards are dealt. I am dealt J6. I should tell you that J6 is an AUTO hand for me. In our home game, the first guy to win a pot w/ J6 wins a bottle of bourbon. so the flop comes JJ2. SWEEEEEEET. I check, and there is some small betting, and I call. The turm brings a 2nd club, 10 I think. I decide that I dont want to give anyone a chance to hit a cheap flush, so I bet 2x the pot, which is like 500 points. I get raised?????? so I move in. We flip. Me J6, Him AQ clubs GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR 4 of clubs on the river. I LOVE the river. It is ok though, Because I still ended up 500 points ahead.

He probably had banked UB pts. to piss away and not a real risk for him.

Ya know, the only time I play for river draws like that dude did is when I'm way up for the day. I just can't bring myself to play like that way normally, that is unless I see it very cheaply.

I have not played ring for pts. in a while, only Pts. SNG's.

Hmm I used to post those here, but then we were told not to post bad beats because they are boring and nobody cares.
