Default I build the pot, only to get screwed...

PokerStars 3/6 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

excuse the added commentary, the converter doesn't catch all ins...

Checks around to me, Hero bets, calls around to MP who raises, SB and BB fold, Hero 3-bets. MP intentionally disconnects to avoid calling the 3bet with his gutshot straight draw...

Turn: (2 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

River: (2 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

Final Pot: 2 BB (a lot more)

MP makes his gutshot straight draw and takes down 5 BB pot. Hero goes on tilt and pisses away entire bankroll.

I'd say what I think about you, but your 7000x my postcount would likely result in my banning.

Screw it. You're an [censored].

How the hell would you deal with getting ripped off like this?

If you're a mod, ban me.

Otherwise, kindly do what this forum exists and tell me where I screwed up playing the hand.

I can take a legitimate loss. If he'd called the 3-bet, I wouldn't be pissed and wouldn't be posting this... I'd be playing with him all day and all damn night. But the idiot didn't call me... he just disconnected and came back in THE NEXT HAND. Mighty convenient time to get booted, isn't it?

So shoot me for asking advice from better players. Isn't that the WHOLE POINT OF THIS FORUM?

How would I even go about asking Stars to look into what happened? It doesn't seem like something a support person is going to want to waste time on.
