I am the donkey\'s donkey - NL Ranting
how do you stop being the donkey's donkey?
i keep losing big pots to donkeys who draw out on me with slim draws. what always happens is, these donkeys win from me, then get stacked by a good player (somehow they cant outdraw a good player, or get outdrawn by a good player), and leave the table. it almost feels like a conspiracy. thanks for letting me rant. does this happen to anyone else?

[/ QUOTE ] Short Term Syndrome. It happens when all you think about is the money that you lost in any given hand or session, rather than the long term expected value of any given action.
