Hi, I'm Mills And I'm A Bad Beat Survivor

[Mills 0]

so yea.. long story short i've been sitting at the table for 4-5 hours.. buy in at 1/2 for 200... for the first couple of hours the table was very solid... then they left and the bingo players arrived.I'm sitting with about 280 at this point after a relatively solid session with a few minor ups and downs. When i pick up AA utg, I raise to 7... maniac shoves for 140 more... I call... he has 10s... 10 in the door. I try to resist the urge to berate him, but i get a few smart ass lines in... but I just tell myself i'll get him. About 5 hands later, maniac raises to 13, a station calls and I make it 50 with AK, he asks me for a count... and he shoves, I beat him in obv... he shows KQ.. queen in the door.ugh... so incredibly frustrating. Not that either of these beats are atypical in any way, it's just that the guy looking to ship his stack gets me twice in a row in terrible shape each time... the 580 dollars or so that were in the combined pots dosen't help much either....which then compelled me to tilt another 100 away in blackjack... which isnt helping anyone.eh, anyway, thanks for listening

So...these things don't just happen online. That makes me feel a little better for all the hands I lost as a 4:1 favorite, I suppose. But, hey, apparently "that's poker". Be happy you're not playing Russian Roulette and keep playing solid.
