It’s actually embarrassing how bad I played tonight. First I lost with pocket aces. I bet a measly $10 pre-flop and a couple guys called. My aces got to be good (or so I think) when a 5, 7, 9 flop out. And duh, of course one guy is hiding his good fortune🙈 (smiling his ass off with a 6,8 in his hand). I proceed to lose a bundle on that one. So I build back. Play smart. Win a bunch of hands. Monkey see monkey do 🐵 Yet no sooner am I back on top then I go and do something stupid again. Pocket 8s. I bet ‘em hard. One caller. Flop comes. 7,10, Jack. Fuck it i say. Bet big again. It’s just me and him. The ‘Turn’ comes and it’s an 8!! I have trips! Man I’m good. So blindsided to the reality of his ridiculous ‘All-In’. And right there, before God and everyone, he reveals his pocket 9s for the win. How could I be so stupid?! I got up, put my jacket and left the table. vowing to myself, never to come back to Harrah’s Cherokee Casino to play poker again. 🐒
