Something worse than donks

I always wanted to start blogging, but I never found the right subject, until now. Well, this seems to me a very good topic to start... here it comes.

Is there anything worse than donks that beat you when they start strongly underdog? Hell... YEAH: Telecom Italia Mobile, aka TIM !!! I am at the sea so I am using my mobile phone as a modem. It provides a slow connection, but it’s good enough for messaging, chatting and... playing poker. Well, three days ago I was playing 20€ sngs and was running bad, losing about 100€... but it was a normal downswing (even if it was going on for 2 days) and fortunately it seemed about to end (opponents were stopping winning hands such A4 against my AK) when, while I had opened TWELVE sngs of 20€, Telecom Italia Mobile suddenly decided to refuse connection (and other services) without notice for the whole night. Result: 240€ (12x20€) lost without playing a hand !!!
Total profit of that day: -350€. I do prefer donks cracking my pocket aces with 7-2 offsuite.

that sux.. i know the feeling.. i experienced the same thing 1 time..enterd in 5 tourneys n lost it all ,,wasnt much manybe $ 40 dollars,,but i dint even get to play a hand becasue we had a power outage in my town because of weather..i tohught maybe on those days it would b better to play cash games as my $$ would be safe in cases like this...

you are right, qwaya... the problem is that in Italy it's not legal to play cash... only tourneys... so the solution is to reduce multitabling to 4 tables until I'll come back to my house where I have a cabled and much more stable adsl connection. Anyway, as you can read on my next post, I've already regained it all Wink
