Being in love (with poker) means never having to say you are sorry, but

[runadrum]

I can't not for this hand as it involves biting the hand that feeds me (and I don't mean Avon) ! It was a bad call - and I mean the second one although some might say the first too, although I have previously posted that I am partial on occasion to K suited. My only excuse was that I was going well in the Stan James freeroll at the same time and I needed to concentrate on one of them if I was going to get anywhere in either, so I was prepared to lose this hand ........

Re: Being in love (with poker) means never having to say you are sorry, but I don't give a flying fcuk about the money Runadrum - I was just stunned to see what I regard as the worst call (alongside Neville Southall) in history come from you or a player at PL. If you couldn't concentrate, then it begs the question, why are you playing in more than one tourny. It might sound harsh, but I'm not one to hold back in my views mate. ;) You're betting on a gutshot, despite my image as a bluffer, I raised preflop and there are 2 aces on the flop, any sane poker player would have put the hand down and in the long run, you will lose a lot of money or a lot of early exits calling that as you did. ;) If you had made the above call against any other PL'er, I think they would be very pissed off, but que sera sera, that's poker. ;)
