Venting
Man. I'm so pissed. Lost a 400 dollar hand when he only had an 8 percent chance to hit it on the river. He had pocket Aces and I had two pair on the turn. I checked and he went all in and I instant called. The last card was one of his 4 Jacks he needed for the straight (the 2 aces in the deck would have given us a split pot).
Usually, when I make the right play and get lucked out on I don't get angry because I know I played right. But this one really bothered me because I've been on a downswing.
The other days, I played poorly. But today I played so well and then something like this happens.
I also lost AA versus KK all in preflop for 150 dollars, but that one didn't bother me as much.
I guess anyway you make money there is some sort of stress attached to it. I've set up rules I follow to prevent myself from playing badly.
For example, after two big unlucky losses I must take a break. Also, never trash talk because I get really heated and then lose my play. Argh. This post is just to vent out some of my steam.
