    Don't know how interested anyone will be in these, but I just had to put these hands in as I felt they epitomised the swings of poker. Seriously if the board had paired on that last hand I really don't know what I would have done to myself. This is the worst slump of my life I can only hope it's over.

    I like the hand where villian turns the nut king high straight, then rivers the nut ace high flush, and just calls both streets.

    haha that guy is the biggest weak tight nit at these stakes. I've seen him flat call rivers with the stone cold nuts before too. Maybe it's because he plays about 12 tables.

    btw i think i should have posted this in tales of poker

    Meetubeat is pretty much a constant presence at these tables but his stats are like 20/1 so he's usually very easy to play against. I'm kind of surprised he played KTs in MP to be honest!

    Btw, for the record, in the hands I've played against pantherhound on these tables his BB/100 is like 150 so don't feel too sorry for him
