What do I have to do to get a break?

You fold and fold and fold and fold and fold and fold and fold and then you pick up Aces.

I raise, player behind pushes for $2.55 and the player behind tanks for all his time before calling off all his chips. I can't call quick enough - yippee!! A triple-up. No.

I'm up against pocket 9's and As-Js (sooooted, great call!). I'm sweating when two spades hit the flop and am resigned to losing but there are no real straights out there. Then the dagger, 9h on the turn. I can't believe it, a 2-outer and my Aces are drawing thin.


I swear, Full Tilt has moods. If you go on a decent winning streak, as I did a few weeks ago, it has to balance things out and hit you with cold-decks and bad beats. I just hope I still have some bankroll left when this one passes.
