Holy Donkey Balls. I just had the greatest suck out of my career. I was playing .25/.50 NL on the new Rush Poker game on Full Tilt. I raise two limpers from the button with AQ and the small blind calls and the other two call. So the pot is like 11 bucks and the flop is QJ3 with two hearts. The small blind leads out for $5 and the guy in the cut off just calls. I hope the small is on the flush draw looking to see the next card cheap and i hope the smooth caller has a draw or KQ. So Raise it to 30ish leaving me about 30ish. The both push. I snap call because I got so much already in. Im against a set of Queens and a set of 3s. The turn is a heart and I have the Ace of hearts. You know the rest of the story. Cha ching. Nice little $185 dollar pot. I have been running very crappy on this Rush poker. Im still up. Mostly on being aggressive as hell and picking good spots to bluff. Im slightly above even with aces over 2400 hands and Im down with Kings. Im appropriately up with QQ and JJ. I DO HOWEVER LOVE RUSH POKER!!!!!! Getting to turbo fold and move to another table for another hand instantly is so sweet. I have been playing 2 tables and it probably the equivalent of multi tabling 8 tables. There are a lot of grinders. Its actually turning the loose passive people into tight players because they can just fold and move to the next hand. Its not the blind stealing contest you would think though. Seems like a lot of willing callers. I have done very well floating the first bet in position and bluffing the turn. I have basically played loose aggressive and have swung all over the place but have steadily moved up until that last suck out that launched me up to $580 bankroll. I was at like $140 when I started playing Rush. I also find that when I get a bad beat and get angry I actually play tighter which is the opposite in my normal tilt mode. I just get mad and fold until i pick up a really good starting hand. Not sitting there giving my self an excuse to do something stupid while Im waiting to fold is a big help when Im tilting. Plus my rake back is rolling in like never before. I havent had a $50 rake back payment in probably a year and Im sure I will have that this next payment. Im not playing that much more time wise but Im playing so many more hands.
On the live front I got clobbered the other night by the son of a bitch James (who is really the nicest guy you'll ever meet). Coolered to hell. Mostly in two hands. He raised preflop and flopped a flush when I flopped two pair. The last hand He and another guy in the pot I raise with a flush draw and they both raise behind me. So I finally decide to gamble my last $110. The first all in guy showed us a card so I knew he had a set and I knew James didnt put in the 2nd raise with a flush draw. So after its all exposed Im the only flush draw and i hit it on the turn. James had Js and 9s and the other guy had a set of 6s. Fucking J on the river. James wins a huge pot and the set flopper is none to freaking happy and Im plenty pissed to. How the fuck is the board gonna pair. They had all the damn cards in the hole. I decided to leave cause I was gonna lose the next $200 in about 12 minutes as annoyed as I was.
