downswing

Had one of my biggest losing days today. Nothing seemed to go my way... KK against AA, QQ against KK every game, and none of my hands were holding up. And the shorties kept doubling on the bubble so I ended up bubbling a lot myself, which is pretty annoying.

Well I guess this is my first blog, figured I'd post it at the end of July. I primarily play the low/mid-stakes 6max turbo games on Full Tilt.

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.
