you take the hi road ...

welcome back, gentle reader.

well, my return to the pl08 cash zoo was not pretty. then again, omaha being the beast that it is, you really need good starting hand selection ... and when you are dealt this type of thing, maybe its time to go do something else. read on, or should that be fucking-stroll-on ...

Dealt to doom_bfg [ Td 4h 3s 3h ]
Dealt to doom_bfg [ Th 3d 2s 4s ] ....... ** Dealing Flop ** [ Ah, Qs, 2d ][ 9c ][ Kd ] ... ffs
Dealt to doom_bfg [ Kh 6h 3s Ad ] ...... ** Dealing Flop ** [ 5d, 9s, Ks ][ 8s ][ Ts ]
Dealt to doom_bfg [ 8c 4s 8d 3d ] ....... ** Dealing Flop ** [ Ac, 2h, 3h ] ....... jesus wept :(
Dealt to doom_bfg [ Kh 8d 2d 6h ]
Dealt to doom_bfg [ As 4s 8c 5d ] ....... ** Dealing Flop ** [ Td, Th, Ad ]
Dealt to doom_bfg [ 6s 9s 5s 8s ]
Dealt to doom_bfg [ 7d Jc 4d 2c ]

and on and on and on ...

needless to say i won fuck all. i think sub-conscious tilt set in. see, there is one guy at the table who is playing every-single-fucking-hand ... and winning with trash ...

theBa$tard sat down with $25 and when i left he had $70 ......

here is a selection of his hands that went to showdown ......

[ Kc, Qh, 7c, 5d ]two pairs, Kings and Queens.
[ 7s, 8d, 4h, 7d ]a full house, Sevens full of Kings.
[ 6c, 2d, 3d, 7s ]a full house, Sevens full of Twos.
[ 3h, Qc, 9s, Qh ]a flush, Queen high.
[ 7c, 3s, 2h, Jc ]
[ 9c, 2s, 6s, Jd ]
[ 6d, 7d, Jh, Td ]a flush, Queen high.
[ 4d, 8d, Kd, 3c ]a straight Ace to Five.

doom_bfg shows [ Ks, Kc, 9c, 3h ]a straight Nine to King.
theBa$tard shows [ 3s, Ac, 7d, 3d ]a flush, Queen high.

I'm sure there is a lesson in there somewhere.
