20 car pile up, low content
2 and a half hours tonight at a .50/1 table at UB.
Like watching 20 car crashes on the interstate happening right in front of you. Over and over. Guys raising with crap. Calling down unbelieveable suckouts. Etc. Lost 12 BB in about two hours, and didn't give a d**n. Loved it, in fact. Why? Maybe the mood I was in. I play Hold Em for entertainment, and I'm usually at tables that are way under my bankroll, so the money is of little consequence. I can see why good players love those loose games, despite the variance. It is frustrating as hell to watch your raised AA turn in to trips and get cracked by a guy who flushes holding J5 suited. But I couldn't tear myself away. Is there something wrong with me?

From the sound of your post, I suggest origami [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. -Jaran
