7th August

Im pretty sure yesterday is one of the most frustrating sessions ive ever had,  don’t think ive swore at the screen so much since the days of 50/100FL. The frustration was bore out of me  losing five buys in, then winning them back three times over the day, along the way losing more than my fair share of races and suffering the standard badbeats. But it was the standard of the plays that was the real shock, and from regs who just by the fact they play all day you’d think they’d have some understanding of the game.  The first hand I flat call a raise in a 3 way pot in position with 7h8h. The flop 5s6hKh, the reg bets $40, bad player calls $40 and I bet out $300. The reg instant re raise all in to $500, bad player folds it’s a easy call for me and the way its played hes either got a set, AA or AK, when he turns over 10hJh the swearing starts! Now seriously what the hell does he put me on, about the only hand hes good against is mine and well sorry he didn’t think it through enough to put me on that hand!!!! In fact there lies the problem, he didn’t think! Hes got a flush draw and my god hes going to play it! Naturally I hit the straight and the flush and lose to his wonder play. When you’ve had a day where you battling against it all and then you get a reg playing a hand so bad, well I defending my bad language! The next hand was even worse, once again im in position and see a cheap flop with 10c8c. The flop comes 8h 7d 3c, he bets pot I call. Turn is a 5c, so top pair and a flush draw, he bets pot and put him all in, he thinks awhile then calls with 9s10s……..the river of course doesn’t need explaining!! Let me again say, HE THOUGHT ABOUT IT before calling. Then we come to the evening session, I 3 bet with JJ and get called, flop J 8 8, I bet pot and get called, turn a blank I get disconnected………………………….the thieving piece of s**t bets $5 immediately to steal the pot…………ooooooooo you sad little *****!!!!!!!!!!!! I don’t really do much table chat but I abused the little ***** for awhile before it left! And then what happens? I get 22 on a 2 x x board and get disconnected again!!!!!!! FFS!!!!! I got on the phone to BT again and really let rip, the full anger of the day unleashed on some poor Indian guy just trying to do his job!!!!!!!!!!!! I calmed down after my head nearly popped off, at my age I think I really should stop getting so stressed!!!!!!! So to be blunt yesterday was a very poor day at the office, but yet I still only finished one buy in down!!! The real sore point was being robbed, if it had been a big bet well fair enough, but  to bet $5 is just wrong…………..but you know what goes around comes around and my word im going to make the sad pleb pay……………………………sh1t there goes the stress level again!!
