Jdr999 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 While it isn't a lot in terms of buy-in, I lost $500 tonight playing NL200 (1/2 blinds), which was my worst loss ever in poker, and was above my normal stakes.Some hands that make me want to quit poker, or at least cash games:My Cards- :card_clubs_10:Board- :card_clubs_3:Other player has- . $400 pot.My Cards- :card_clubs_6:Board: :card_clubs_j:Other player has- $450 pot.I should of folded this on on the river, but they enticed me to call with a 40% pot bet.My Cards- Board- :club: They had: $150 pot.All-in pre-flop hands:Kings vs. A-Q, A on turn. $150 pot.And the best hand of the night:Limp re-raise with Aces, A-K pushes. Flop K-K-x. $450 pot.Only fun hand I won was Queens on a A-Q-x, vs Q-J, $500 pot. Let the flaming commence! Link to post Share on other sites
loxo 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 What site was this on. I only ask bc the stars 200NL games seemed to have really tightened up lately and I guess I'm just interested if this was on stars? Link to post Share on other sites
zimmer4141 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 OK, go play tournaments.Get those coolers on the bubble, maybe to go out in 10th. They hurt just a bit more than ones in cash games. Link to post Share on other sites

Worked in the past, didn't work tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
Poppy_Hillis 11 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 What site was this on. I only ask bc the stars 200NL games seemed to have really tightened up lately and I guess I'm just interested if this was on stars?It seems like to me NL cash games have gotten increasingly worse (harder to win) the last 2 years. It's like you have to be good to win now, it sucks. I used to be a winning player now I am a break even player, and it's not worth the time to play anymore. So I just try and have fun in tournaments now. It also might be because I don't bother trying to get better by reading books or anything while everyone else does. Oh well. Sorry, I only intended to write the first two sentences. Link to post Share on other sites

checkymcfold 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 that's a rough day, but if it makes you feel any better, i set a personal (and quite possibly world) record by losing with 6/6 sets flopped in NLHE today. i recommend you follow my suit and drink half a bottle of vodka and chase it with half a bottle of wine.

Lofa Tatupu 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Same here man, after winning $1500, i went on a 7 buyin downswing where the beats were just sick. Everything that could go wrong, did..Lost twice in a row with AA vs KK, set over set, sets getting drawn out by two pair and straight, getting AK vs KQ and having the Q hit the river with all the money going in on the flop. It can lead someone to lose one's sanity very quickly. Link to post Share on other sites
cdipierr 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 The other day, I lost KK to QQ on a KQQ flop. That was fun. Ultimately, you just have to suck it up and play through it. Link to post Share on other sites
