• Poker In Da Butt 

  
  

  So I decided to play in the poker tournament this past weekend for the first time.  I figured I played enough on Pokerroom to try my odds against real life people.  Although I was a bit nervous in the beginning, I actually did a lot better than I expected.  I ended up getting eliminated on 2 pretty bad beats to the SAME guy on the damn river card.

  
  

  Here's the first one:

  
  

  I'm in the second round with about $1100 in chips and I'm feeling pretty good about myself.  The guy sitting before me goes all in pre-flop with about $475.  I have an A 10 so I decide to call.  He shows his cards and he has pocket 2's.

  
  

  Why anyone would go all in with pocket 2's beats the heck out of me, but if it means adding to my chip count, I don't care.  So the flop comes out and I pair up my 10's.  Everyone watching the table including myself thinks I have this hand won.  As luck would have it, a damn 2 comes out on the river and I feel like someone just kicked me in the nuts.  

  
  

  Anyways, I guess that's part of the game.  At least I lasted longer than lowphat121, drufletcher and KPmissy (poker beast).   It was fun while it lasted and I congratulate those who won, including Choiiiii who came in 3rd.  Good job buddy!  This win makes up for all the other times you lost. hehe

  Ok I got a few people to sign up but they haven't completed the registration (don't let me be another Choiiii ).  I don't recognize any of the emails but I'm assuming they're alternate emails used for spam.  In any case, if you signed up already, PLEASE complete it by signing up for one of the services.  I can offer gmail accounts to anyone who needs one too!
