Step up and join in

Yeah thats right…feel free to join in….join in what?….kicking the s**t out of me thats what because the last 48 hours have been something of a mare. Firstly, dipped $187 in the 100K challenge so my brief trip into being ahead land is over and my roll now stands at $843!

Second, I have lost over $3000 at 10-20 NL and another $700 at PLO but the real kick in the guts happened in a 25-50 game. Some ******* idiot was throwing a party and tilting and THREE times I had him all in with the best hand and three times he got there with shit. What did I lose…..well….my mind for one thing but the amount I wish to remain a secret but it hurts I can tell you.

Sometimes I wonder why I play poker at all, dont get me wrong here, I have suffered like this countless times but that is just it….why do I bother? I sometimes think that if I were to ever see a shrink, he would tell me that I had strong masochistic tendencies.

At times I feel like a punchbag, of course it happens to everyone I know that….but when it happens to you it feels a lot worse. To see a guy play so badly and take me for so much money and then laugh about it……well. On top of that, I look like having to fork out three and a half grand with the bet because after three full weeks of the challenge, I am behind where I started.

On top of that, England are almost out of the Euro’s which will make for a crap summer next year (providing Israel dont do us a massive favour), we lost the Rugby World Cup Final last night and if Lewis Hamilton dips out in about two hours time……what has happened to the world.

See ya next week…..if I am still around
