Crap session today – a full house beaten by quads, followed by everything going really swingy. So I decided to really try to be weak-tight and see how that would go. The swinginess stopped, but so did everything else – flatlined for the next 600 hands. I was just getting to 1k hands, and then had this hand;
5 Players

UTG ($6.26)
UTG+1 ($1.24)
CO ($14.62)

UTG raises to $0.20, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.20, 1 fold

UTG shows
Q A
UTG wins $9.38 (net +$4.38)
Hero lost $5
I then get an observer pipe up in the chatbox with ‘OWNED!’ – wtf, if that wasn’t a test of my zen control I don’t know what is. I was disappointed with the loss obviously, but I easily shrugged it off – I’m really pleased with my tilt control these days (I’m practically the most boring man on earth now!), but can’t be arsed with moron’s making comments like that. Oh well…
