my turn to take the beating., Michael C, 3. Nov 2003 08:02

Obviously, for someone to win, there must be at least one loser. Saturday was my turn to win and Sunday was my turn to lose it right back. I had many more second best hands than best hands.

I get 3 tens on the flop and he got 3 Jacks on the Turn, I get trip 9's and the 9 gives him a st8. I get trips and he get a full house on the River. I get a st8 and he gets a flush on the River. I did win a few good hands but the second best ones put me in the red. Also, the number of hard beats in a row pushed me toward Tilt which I had to combat. My stack kept going way up and then way down and then back up and then down so I left to play another day.

Also, taking the beats encourged them to stay to the River more that ususal since I was often out drawn on the River. Of course, I was not the only one that was losing at the table. I was just the only one I cared about. :-)

Just another day at the poker table.

Thanks for a place to voice my opinion. :-)
