Actually, I was the “hot head” that started that mess, all because I lost control of my emotions.
9 times out of 10 I would have never started that hand or got anywhere near it. I was trapped up in my emotional bag of vengeance. I call it my “I’m gonna get you sucker” mode. Both of those guys had wore my nerves down and I was out for blood. I know we have all been there at some point or some table, but my weakness is “table bullies”. If I see someone that has the table afraid to get involved in hands with them because of their aggressiveness or just taking advantage of conservative players, it makes me want to knock them down a few pegs. This is the one thing I believe hurts my game more than anything else. I am very conscience of the emotion that goes into poker, I even take time to prepare myself before I sit at a table. “it not personal, its just business” I say to myself. But as soon as I win a few big hands and they notice the DALLAS COWBOY hat and star card holder, here they come. “Oh theirs a new sheriff in town” is usually their standard remarks. LOL My standard response is “Yep, and you are all under arrest for impersonating poker players” LOL Of which I am the usually the biggest impersonator. LOL
When the raise came, I was thinking he had pocket aces or kings, I didn’t put him on 3’s. To tell you the truth, I was on tilt at that moment. I was “hot head #1”. I had over cards and was confident I had the best hand. “Show no fear”… If the river didn’t give that 10, I would have went all-in anyway.
Whats up Bobby,
I’m a regular at MGM, I am there almost every weekend (wknd warrior), I drive up from Newport News. I just started playing 1/3 and a little 2/5 this year. I might have played with you at a table, lol I use to be one of the 4/8 crew but decided to step up my game and stacks. Next time you are there listen out for “Jeffrey P for 1/3”
