Dammit Janet!

For various reasons it's been a while since I've played any poker. Last night I went back on my favourite poker site, PKR, and played a single table tourney. It seems Lady Luck is miffed that I've been ignoring her...

Since I knew I was out of practice I went into careful, tight play mode, waiting for the right moment. Unfortunately I was dealt nothing but rubbish. Not a starting pair in sight, not even a decent Ace. Finally I picked up A-Q suited in good position and shoved - only to run smack into pocket rockets! And to add insult to injury the final Ace turned up in the flop. Grr...

To paraphrase Brad Majors (a hero):

"Hospitality! All I wanted was to win a hand, a reasonable request which you have chosen to ignore."
