I know how you feel. Sometimes I get really caught up in the game and it hurts to lose a hand you think you have in the bag. But as we all know, this is poker, and eventually, this, or most likely worse, will crush your hand and your hopes for awhile. Try not to let it get you down, and glad to hear you're feeling ok about it today.

since you are a linguist, maybe you will appreciate this. I have cooped an unrelated French phrase and call the hands that kick my ass (not bad beats, but the hands (or series of hands) that mess with my head) 'la petite morte'.
Maybe my own thoughts on death are less hopeful than others and that is why my definition of this phrase is more dark than the conventional, but thinking about these types of hands this way helps me get over the unpleasantness. Last edited by melioris; 04-02-07 at 09:21 PM. |

As we say in Klingon "Heglu'meH' QaQ jajvam" - "Today is a good day to die"
