Running Shitty--

Had my 4th straight losing session at Full Tilt today, and I can't possibly say it was my fault:

The lowlights:

QQ loses to JJ--Lost after capping pre-flop and betting every street to running spades. He had the -- -$27.00

Would you have called if he raised you on the river?

Probably--just because I suck.

Overall, I lost $203 today. Another $103 at Stars to go along with that ass-raping.

Sheesh.

So March is off to a shitty start, but I felt I played well.

MTD: -$203

Payback is a royal bitch, eh?

I probably should've re-raised the river, but this was too funny anyway...

They played this hand for me--hell, 5 players to a 3-bet flop...

He folded for 13.5-to-1 there--did he come all the way with nothing?

I'll take it. A nice, profitable session.

How are the limit games at full tilt?

Wonderful. Generally soft--rocky though occasionally you'll see a crazy table like I hit this morning. Good numbers of weak/tight players.

Selection isn't great--only 2 3/6 FR LHE games going on now, but the tables are juicy enough that if you're TAG or UA, you will win money.
