I just participated in the most ridiculous farce.

I was playing texas hold-em poker on Zynga on facebook (fake money), and I got my chips to 10 mil, which was somewhat high for that cash game, where the buy ins were 800k, and then i saw the guy to the right of me take a long time preflop, so i thought "he must have a huge hand, i better fold my hand preflop and not even call the blinds, won't i look cool knowing that he has a big hand before he even raised?". so i folded 4-5 and only two people went to the flop. turned out i would have flopped a straight! to make it worse, both players jam all in. of course, the guy to the right of me had nothing, he was just on tilt and jammed anyway, and the other guy had something (but not a straight like i would have had) and he got all the chips from the guy to the right of me. i would have won a huge pot

that's not the end of the story. the farce continues...

so from this point on, i was really really mad at the guy who got all the chips. so i started playing aggro against him, trying to bet him out of pots so i could play mind games with him. in the next two hands, i did exactly that. except... he had the near nuts each every single fucking time and not only did he not reraise me with near nuts, he instant-called like a noob each time i bet into him, and to make myself even more pissed off, i jammed even though i knew he instant-called. i just wanted to beat him out of the pot. he DID NOT reraise, ever.... just call - call - call. i lost all 10 mil to this guy, practically giving him all my chips and doubling him up twice. and like a noob who doesn't even feel exhilarated with what he won, he exited the game 10 minutes later like it was another day

i knew my story would be bad the moment i saw that i missed a straight and both of them jammed, and that it would get worse. that was what my story had to be today

ridiculous farce. i'm ok but up-yours poker gods
