Sit and Go Fuck yourself...

Ha ha, I actually started cracking up as I wrote that title, which is probably a good thing as I'm absolutely steaming at the moment. I've played 6 sit and go's so far tonight and failed to cash in one. Lost 2 out of 2 coin flips, both on the bubble when I've been the shortest stack, lost with AQ vs KJ in another for basically all my chips to bubble again and ran AJ into AA in one straight after in a pot I should never have got involved in. In the other two I just never got going and got to the stage where I had to push at every opportunity and unfortunately ran into bigger hands.

I'm in 4 more at the moment so need to make $110 just to break even from them.

Oh dear God! Just as I wrote that this happened:

And no your eyes do not deceive you that is seven-deuce that he not only called my pre-flop raise with, but called my all-in for over the size of the pot with for a open ender straight draw. As if he could miss. WOW.

And here is the up-side of having complete and utter muppets playing at your table:

Now the guy with Kings I can understand, but the guy with Jacks? How on earth does he get his money in in this pot? Surely he can't expect to be winning here after the pot has been raised 5 times and 2 people are already all-in. Oh well, always nice to hit quads...

How are things going in your 3 remaining games I hear you cry! Well I can tell you I'm out of one, you guessed it, lost another 50/50. BUT stop the press, I've won 2 other coinflips in one game to double up twice with 5 left iand I'm in good shape in the final one (the one where I hit quads) still with 6 left though.

Hello Mr Boomswitch...just won one and finished second in the other. The second place was fairly standard, but my god the win was awesome, I think I now know how the Cannon feels 95% of the time. Lets pick up from where I left off, having one 2 coinflips in close succession, unheard of in itself I then knocked the two short-stacked players in one fowl swoop makin a sick call from the big blind. I use sick not in the good sense, but in the way it was probably a bad call, I just didn't have time to work out odds etc. and saw the opportunity to get in the money without making too much of a dent in my own stack, see what you think:

The game was then over in two hands as I found KQ against KJ and then to finish it off I managed to suck out with K7 versus AK...BOOM...

So only $30 down for the night now and on a roll I hope. I was going to stop for the night but may as well play the rush and I've fired up 4 more tables.

Maybe the title wasn't so relevant after all...
