Life Shouldn't Be A Fuckin' Grind

I will never be a poker pro, but my lifetime poker ledger is positive and I think that's something to be proud of.

The Poker Gods Hate Me

I seriously wonder what I did to piss off the poker gods. Two hands tonight that I just amazing.

Six handed in a $5.50 SnG, I've played okay, not gotten many cards. Had a couple steals not work, won a couple small pots. I have like 1250 left with blinds of 150/300. Folds to the button who makes it 300 to go, I shove from the BB with AJo, he tanks and calls with A8o (lol). Flop comes AT8, gg me.

Then there was this gem at .5/1 LHE.

Maybe I should email FullTilt support and ask them to turn off the doomswitch.

*edit* Update: I'm now 0-4 tonight on pairs TT+ at the .5/1 table. Three of them against the same guy from the above KK hand with the same pre-flop action. He sucks out on me every time. I'm stuck 26 BB at that table.

Good thing I'm up 36BB at .25/.50. Ridiculous.
