    Default Brief rant

    Hello all,

    I just wanted to drop a few notes from my current frame of mind regarding a micro MTT. I'm doing fine in chips, I'm having to buy all my pots and playing the players. No matter what, no matter how many A/K/Q/J's hit the table tonight, I'm guaranteed to never pair or trip one. In the event I do hit trips, for example, trip 9's on the flop, I'm left with the most low-stacked (suddenly conservative) players ever. I almost have to wait until the river to make a slight move and get some chips, which I am, and I'm getting a little more for that. I'm playing fine, and the game is going about even at the moment. I'll make it to the money, but it's annoying sometimes when you get great hands and still have to buy the chips against calling-stations to keep current with my stack:blind ratio.

    I can't even imagine how stressful it would be to try to play every hand, I'd be brain tired after awhile. Anyhow, for whomever reads this, any other post is in a better mood. This is my last MTT for tonight, for that reason. But, gotta hit some $ first.

    Good God, you would expect to pair something within a couple hours. WTH?

    Hole Cards:

    QJ: 8-3-6
    AQ: K-J-K
    KJ: A-Q-2
    AJ: K-T-3
    KK: T-T-Q
    QQ: K-A-K

    All this, I'm prepared to deal with. But, in each of these hands, one of the players DID have the nuts. They bet it, and these are real examples of hands that played out, these are all within a total of 45 hands. Never seen anything like that. I may be incorrect on that estimation, but it is frustrating. This really WILL be my last MTT for today and probably tomorrow. It's damn hard to buy a pot from someone who has top pair plus-one. LOL. Happy rivers, friends...

    If that shit pisses you off so much then please just quit poker before you hit an actual unusual downswing and think it's rigged.
