I shouldn't complain...

[Talking Poker]

...because I ended up logging a nice winning session tonight (almost 4 buy ins) despite the bullshit - AND, I even sucked out once!!! - but I have to tell you, this was a frustrating couple of hands right here. The bests themselves are one thing (in the first hand, the guy hits a 4 outer and then doesn't bet it), but it's the HORRID play by my opponents being rewarded that gets me.

Anyhoo:
