Here's my dilemma... Amazingly enough, I'm actually not playing as bad as normal, and am actually making a couple bucks playing exclusively $30 and $50SNGs, which is not the norm for me, as I'm usually much more of a terrible cash player than a terrible SNG player... But, for GOD KNOWS WHAT REASON... I seem to be having the hardest time in the world letting go of overpairs... I've had this happen to me in 3 SNGs in the last couple days, and it's REALLY starting to piss me off...
So, my solution is to completely embarass myself by posting my horrible play here, and having you guys rip me an ass... I'm hoping that it's cathartic and slightly less painful than kicking my CPU, which hurt a LOT...
Please feel free to rip into me, as lord knows I need it after this embarrassment of a play...
