Unbelievable
I think Dane Cook said it best when he said "When you're having a fight with your girlfriend, there's one word guys repeat over and over. Unbelievable.... Unbelievable... un-beelievable.... UNBELIEVABLEEE!!!!!!!!
That pretty much sums up my 4 1/2 hours at the casino yesterday, where I managed to drop $200 in a 3/6 game that still in retrospect was a pretty good game. There was one other TAG, three or four loose-passives, one total rock, and a maniac. Unfortunately, the maniac totally had my number.
There wasn't one huge hand that took half of my stack or anything, its was pretty much a steady decline. The nastiest hand I lost was when the maniac rivered the sucker end of a gutshot with 56o against my AA and then when I showed my hand, he told the table that "he put me on Aces, so he knew his straight would be good". When I called his river bet he said "straight" and I said "Yup, you would". That is the single worst complaint or beratement of bad play I have ever uttered in my poker career, I actually surprised myself quite a bit. I am a huge opponent of "tapping the glass" when it comes to "better" players yelling at fish for their stupid and lucky play. My comment didn't slow the idiot down though, he kept cold calling three bets preflop with J7s, which he made a flush with to beat my KK.
Even with all the horrid beats, I didn't tilt at all really. I used to tilt, but I can honestly say that I do not tilt anymore in limit poker. I know I didn't play badly yesterday, it was just one of those days where I didn't hit any draws, or get many hands to play with. Of course I could have played better, obviously. I chased a little bit too much and made a few too many crying calls on the river, which should be eliminated from my game in a few instances.
I don't know though, losing that much money really does hurt, so I may take a week or so off from playing live and ease myself back into the online game, which I have to do anyway because school is starting soon.
