You want to hear some bad beats? Check this out. I had quad aces all in preflop (Omaha) and this guy with his shitty hand (two different suits - that's not even a flush draw! plus no pairs, and no card higher than a JACK. wtf kinda hand is 8s9cTsJc?? ) took me down. How does that hand end up with a straight? My hand had higher cards in it! Four of them! And since when does four of a kind not beat a straight? Omaha's a weird game LOL.
This other hand, I was playing hold 'em and I had pocket eights, and this guy re-raised me and so I went all in, 'cuz fuck him, right? I hit an 8 on the flop!!!!!!! But then it turned out he had pocket kings and hit a king, and actually that 8 I thought I hit was a 9. Talk about a bad beat!!!!!11
The worst thing though, I had AK six times and I went all in cold with all six of them. I always do that, you should try it. Here was the result though: five times everybody folded and I won like 40 cents, and the last time I got called, and the guy had pocket kings (again with that hand! ) and he won and I lost $25. Wtf is that?? Had to be at least a fifty percent chance I'd win, between hitting an ace or hitting a straight. Or I could have made two different flushes, since it was AK offsuit. Online poker is SO RIGGED.

Stuff to try today:
~ Play cards in reverse, like you want to lose money. Fold your best hands. Call with your worst hands. Only raise when someone else has already bet or raised strong. If someone re-raises you and you have nothing, jam all in. I guarantee* you, at mid-level stakes like the 50 or 100 tables at Party, you'll break even or come out ahead.
*This guarantee is not guaranteed.
~ Play cards blind. Not just without seeing your cards - blindfolded. You'll be clicking on random shit, typing in strange amounts and bets with letters instead of numbers... it will freak everybody out, put them on tilt, and result in you winning a fortune.
~ Tell the people at your tables that you have only seconds to live and just want to win one last pot before you go. Then bet all but one cent of their stack, and beg them to call and then fold on the next street.
