Dejected

Outlasted over 1200 people to finish 23rd in the 5$/MTT. The hands that killed me? I was in the top five with 40 left when I flop trip 9's. I push. KK calls. The king on the turn was fun. I then try to get back to 50K by pushing KK. I get called by (to be fair) a huge stack with A7d. The flop is an Ace and I make a whole $44. Fuck you Poker Gods! Fuck you all.

Nice run man...was watching all along. That KK trip turn when you hit your set of 9's was horrific. Lee Jones should be shot. Great work though, nice seeing a respectable player live up to his name for a change. I admire your work. Hope I can get there someday. I'll keep watching and learning. Nice cash game earlier in the day. Se ya' around.

If that hand was on PStars then it's just another example of the drama hands they deal. I've never seen so many hands played out where you seem to have finally gotten a nice flop only to see the only cards that can beat you come out. Only happens online right?

Sorry to hear about that hand. You'll git 'em back next time.

I guess I could feel bad for you, but your $44 is $259 more than I have after I ran my kings over queens full boat into Kings over aces in the $200 NL, and lost $225 last Thursday. Or the $125 I lost when I ran my pocket aces into pocket kings that tripped up on Wednesday. So shut up and look at it as your are up $394.

While I would like to blame Riverstars and say it's online poker I doubt it. As I have played more live poker.. and by more I mean like 5 session and maybe 1000 hands I have seen some brutal hands. People runner-runner rivering four card flushes, our very own Ick getting 2-outered constantly. I really do think the only reason live players think that online is rigged is because you get to see millions more hands in the same amount of time.

It's live poker that's rigged, we all know that.

Nice run bro. Tough beats down the stretch but keep going forward.

I was in a fun hand in a Full Tilt tourney today. Was thinking I was gonna double when I pushed with QQ, only to get called by KK and JJ. JJ hit a set. Unreal.

I agree with Don, live poker is rigged. I've seen way more crazy shit live than online.

Uggh, sorry to hear about those tough hands. It sounds like you are playing well though. Keep your head up man.

Last night I was running awesome in the ftp 25k guaranteed tournament, and then I found Aces and got it allin preflop with some bitchbox who had Kings. I was going to be in 2nd place in the tournament at that point, until the biatch flipped a king on the flop and took me out.

Online poker is a biatch.
