Default What situation do you hate the most in poker?

MIne has got to be when I raise preflop have 1 cold caller behind me and I and miss the flop.

If you check your opponent is sure to bet out, and if you bet your opponent may just call you down with a pocket pair bottom pair even top pair.

If there are 3-4 players in the hand and someone is betting you can be 99% sure they have a piece of the board, heads up out of position its a whole different ball game

I hate being in this spot.

I don't hate that, but it does tend to be more expensive. Its just one of the long litany of reasons why looser games are better than tighter.

I hate it when I'm down really big in a session and it just keeps on getting worse and worse. Or when I've gone way down in a session, climb maybe a third to a half of the way back, and then--Wham! I get knocked all the way back down again.

When I think about leaving the table (about even) but inconspicuously decide to stay and lose my buy in.

Open raising 77 or 88 in MP2 and getting 3 cold callers and the blinds to a flop of 422 or some such rags where any overcard can hurt you and your opponents are call stations who would rather die then fold their Ace, King, or even Queen overcard and yet you have an overpair at the moment and have to get aggressivley involved in this now huge pot.

Flopping AQQ with AQ, knowing you have a fish on the hook going to war with a weaker Q and capping every street. Unforunately there is a third guy in the hand who catches a one outer royal flush on the river.

I was waiting for this thread to morph into this so I could put mine in: Stomach turning hatred: 4/8 live: KK with K55 flop and three others along for the capped-to-the-river ride. Yeah, I hate that. What the heck was he doing in a capped pot with 55 anyway? Stupid people! [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
