Default Krishan\'s Limrick Contest

In my crusade against low content whiny downswing posts and stat posts with 0 self-analysis I have decided to have a competition. My how to pull out of a downswing post didn't quell the insurrection. I'm looking for a limrick (or other rhymed poem) that gets the following points across with humor, and elegance.

If you are a winning player, just keep playing. Whining won't help. If you are a losing player, posts like these won't turn you into a winning player. You are a turd for posting this crap.

I will then respond to posts I think are no-content whiny posts with the winning poem forever.

The poem must be 2-3 stanzas. The limrick rhyme scheme is AABBA. For example...

Hi, I play 10/20
Sometimes it gets me all benty
But when I win big
and suckout like a pig
My pants start to look kinda tenty.

I write really bad limricks. That is the reason for the contest. I want a good one.

The winner will get access to 1.2 Mil 5/10 hands, 1 Mil 10/20 hands, 450K 3/6 hands, 800K 2/4 hands, and 5 Mil 15/30+ hands. This is not a lame excuse to advertise since I'm shutting down my business.

Winner announced in this thread on Sunday.

I used to lose and cry
My friends would ask me why
When at year's end
Compared to them
My chart had hit the sky

It's a nice limrick but I want it to get across three points.

1. If you are a winning player, just keep playing. Whining won't help.
2. If you are a losing player, posts like these won't turn you into a winning player.
3. You are a turd for posting this crap.

The poem must be 2-3 stanzas.

I enjoyed your parody by the way.

Don't let losing get you down
Or suckouts make you frown
'Cause the guy who chased
And won that race
Was just another clown

You win and yet you cry
You post I don't know why
Just play the game
Don't look to blame
STFU and die

You know variance should be your friend,
It's a long road that will never end,
If you see lots of callers,
You'll get all the dollars,
And end up with more money to spend.

If you move up cause players are bad,
You read on a forum it's rad,
Instead of reading good books,
You're whining 'bout hooks,
For you poker is just a fad.

These stat posts will never go well,
Your BR will never quite swell,
Instead of studying hard,
You post stats like a tard,
And now won't you please go to hell.

This sounds like fun. I'll take a shot:

----------------------------------------------

The title of your post: "I want to die"
But it's just variance that makes you cry
Stop being a troll
Rebuild your roll
and appreciate the bad beats... do you see why?

-------------------------------------------------
