i seem to have hit a trend of getting into a position where i am getting cheaply to see the turn and being faced with lloads of outs and having to face a massive raise before the river!! usually with up to 14 outs available i'll call but for the last few hours i've missed everything! which in turn is affecting my confidence....i know i should be calling but its starting to get expensive and causing severe hair loss!

i know its only a passing thing but its driving me nuts......but it has reminded me of something that happened sunday at the vic casino in the 60 freezeout...there was a guy on my table from the start wearing a cap and listening to an ipod, he called and folded a cpl of times then after about 6 hands went all in with a str8 it turned out only for the guy next to him to have the better str8, he stood up took his cap off to rub his head and said "its been like that for 4 months"....and wandered off only for me to suddenly realise it was michael greco (beppe di marco) from eastenders!
