Y'all must be sick of hearing nothing but good news...

So here it is, and first of all, lemme just say, FUCKKKKIIINNNNN AAAAAAAAA

Hehehe, so now you have a general idea what this is all about.

Well, given the recent success in poker, it was time to move up in limits. I decided to try out the $1/$2 NL game today. Started off, nothing special, then somewhere, I bluffed a medium sized pot off of a guy, so I had $270 at one table (bought-in for $200).

Then, this hand comes up... 9-7 of spades on the button, middle position raises to $8, two players call, so I call. Four to the flop, which was 9-7-3, with 2 hearts. Original raiser bets out $30, one guy calls, and I move all-in, trying to force an overpair like QQ, KK, or AA to call. Well, it worked, the first raiser folded, and the second caller thought for a while, then called, and flipped up QQ. I knew I wasn't a huge favorite (on the flop: 74.6% favorite), and I got ready to sweat the shit out of this hand. Turn was an offsuit 4, a complete blank. Now I only need to sweat 8 outs on the river (on the turn: 81.8% favorite).

And the river is the fucking Queen of hearts, and believe me when I tell you, that HURT LIKE A BITCH.

It's not like I've never been outdrawn before, but that was a fucking $570 pot I just lost.

(total is still in the mid $3k range, nothing disastrous, but winning that pot would have been fucking sweet, not to mention, well-deserved)

Just needed to vent, time to jump back in the fray...
