Im Broke, I Just Dont Know It Yet

Holy Hell what a day. I start out at $730 and proceed to lose 6 or 7 $20 HU SnGs to the same sad ass nit. This guy never bluffed but he never missed either. I couldn't figure out how I was losing. Then when he finally got his $ in bad he shit out. I'd still play him for any amount anytime he wants. Actually I think before that I played .10/.25 full ring no limit and lost 3 buy-ins. Anyway I went into full steam mode. My BR was at $588 and I was on monkey tilt. (added later: I remember now that I had to go take my kid somewhere but I bought in for $200 at the 1/2 table and hit it for $49 in 3 hands to sit at $630ish). When I came back I opened up 4 tables of .50/1.00 and went to work. I bought in for $60 on each table. I cant tell you exactly what happened because that was like 8 hours ago but I came all the way back and got up to $780. My favorite was when I called ridiculous all-in bet on the turn with a gut shot straight flush draw only to see I was up against the nut flush draw. My 74 of hearts vs AJ of hearts. Yeah I spiked a 4 on the river for like a $130 pot. Shit it good. I suck/rule. I was playing one tournament and 2 cash games then and then I went plummeting down again. I bubble out of my tournaments. In the cash games I caught the endless string of turn suckouts. I went down like a sweet muffin all the way to $450. DOWN $330!!!! Now Im in "must get it all back now" mode. I buy into a $100 HU SnG. Wasnt so tough. I won. I didnt want to press that so I bought into a 1/2 NL Full Ring Game for $200. Played about 7 rounds. Stayed around $200. Bought some blinds. Had AA once. My high point was $219 aftter my AA. Well then it happened. I raise in MP with 77. I get 4 callers. Flop is 7,4,2 with 2 clubs. I bet $20 into the $23 pot. I get raised. Im loving it but I know whats coming. I go all-in and get snap called. KQ of clubs. I just look away. I cant watch. I hear the cards coming One, Two, I peek back to see the pot shipping its way down to me. Weeeeeeee. Insta leave. Phew. Back to $750. Seriously. Maybe I could play Magic. Do they bet on Magic?

Wow, Your latest post proves you
suck at poker more than I thought.
Please cash out and pay your bills
dumb ass. And quit using queer terms like, snap call and monkey tilt. Just shows your poker stupidity and makes you sound gay.
Try checkers or xbox.
Good luck dummy!

Thanks for sticking up for me but when he's right he's right! I will however not be able to take Mr. Anonymous's sage advice because I am on a degenerate mission to go broke. I do have an xbox but I will some be pawning it to play .5/.10 online. Please dont get a life though. I love that your life is so terrible that you read my blog. I see that you've moved from "kid" to "dummy". I like it. More Fred Samford.

How can anyone who sucks at poker as much as you be authorized to write a blog on a poker site.
It must be to entertain all the other idiots who quote rounders on a regular basis. What other kind of fruitcakes play at this place you call the love shack.

LOL You think Im "authorized". I authorize you to write your own blog about how you go around trying to rag people because you are not ok with being homosexual. I think it would be good for you to talk about the real inner Steve. This is 2009 and you should just accept yourself and be happy. You are obviously a great poker player because you like to read and post on poker blogs so you should have enough money to go to a psychiatrist to talk about your true sexual feelings for other men. Let us know how it works out. Again thanks for participating.

Hey Sofa King, Dont let this guy get to you, your blog is awesome.
Rounders is an awesome movie, I love the quotes. Wish you would use more from Teddy KGB. And from everything Ive read, you are a pretty solid player. Its not your fault you keep running into luckboxes. Keep up the good work!

Norm, I dont live near Baton Rouge,
but I read one time that the Shack of love was in a small town just outside of Baton Rouge. Dunhum Springs, if I remember right. But you might want to rethink going there, I have heard they play high stakes & that there are some pros that play there. But good luck if you do go.

The Love Shack game is not a high stakes pro game. Its a once a week $40 tournament that usually consists of about 15 people none of whom make their living at poker. We also play a 1/2 game afterward but sometimes we play 1/2 PLO if there's not to many people. It's a friend game. No high stakes. Not even as high as the 2/5 game at the local casino where most of the players play regularly. It became sort of a well known game because RDG who used to direct the big 120+ person tournaments at Big Mikes also wins big local tournaments. He won 2 in 2007 back to back in a circuit event and they did some articles about him talking about his home game at the Love Shack which was a two room house we used to cram into to play. Really the game is just a relic of the old Big Mikes bar tournament that used to be on Monday nights. Man that was a fun tournament. Anyway thanks for the comments guys.
