Welcome to the pain Bhelliom! lol I think you have to have a certain kind of personality to be a poker player. Maybe the rest of you can identify with this. I think poker engages me because Im super competitive and it can stroke my ego and fulfill some self hatred all in the same game! The fact that you can win money is just the icing on the cake.

I havent played much chess, in fact KC stopped playing with me because Im such a sore loser, but it does bring out the same emotion in me. If I make a poor strategic decision Im FURIOUS at myself. I also get boiling mad at other players and tend to heckle them if they jack me.

In the past few weeks I have seen a lot of crazy players. Im wondering if online poker trends follow porn trends and kids going back to college also play poker. Someone told me he was playing a NL ring game and had AA, there was some raising/reraising before the other player was all in with TT. Of course a ten comes on the flop and the guy says "I put you on kings" Now what the fuck?? This is what fascinates me, are these suckout machines really that stupid? Uggg!

This is me.... as soon as I make a stupid move I start slamming the mouse about. That's only in untimed games though... I usually play 1 or 2 minute blitz games and have 5 or 6 openings memorized. When I get more time I'll learn some new ones.
