3rd Jan: Wow I picked a sick day to do my first blog entry...

OK so I log on to ipoker and see a couple of good 10/20 nl games going, open them and a couple of 5/10 nl tables and sit to play for a while.

1 and a half hours pass

Mr. X -$8000.

Excellent.

Im not gonna bore you with too many bad beats but A7 loses to AQ on A78 board for 5k, 45 vs J7 on a J245 board lose for 6k and all kinds of other good stuff happens. Including me logging onto Stars depositing a grand to quintiple up at 25/50 nl and losing it first hand, FIRST HAND, then immediately logging off. GG Stars.

So I'm basically semi concious with rage, luckily I gotta go pick up my car which had to get new tires on it so after driving home with the new Banks album on full volume in a Benz I feel a lil better.

Get in log on and win back a couple of grand, feeling only 65% tilted when i push over a flop raise with 77 on A7Q board see the turn come Q (Pair the board ship it etc etc) then blank. Just as I'm starting to think what a great young man I am for managing to get even he turns over AQ.

ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH.

So now I am so tilted I can't see, in this state I have a vision and I speak to Poker itself. The conversation went like this.

POKER: "Aw Mr. X I see you are going to have a losing day! HA HA HA"
MR. X: "NO WAY POKER, gimme a royal flush..."
POKER: "OK X, PEACE"

I awaken from my trance to play this hand.

After this Anna said she folded AA because "Mr. X is a rock" and, exact quote "Last time he bluffed was in 1983". Nice read Anna, nice read....

Heres my day (without the grand I lost on Stars coz it wouldnt import)

Anyway, this makes me +4k so far this month/year, not great, but good considering that plus was a minus 12 hours ago....
