i dont play with money i need. learnt that a long time ago by getting burnt often and then not having money for gas. interesting couple of years. made me respect money more and taught me other important life lessons.
this was different though. with a $15 preflop bet, a guy with pocket 2's has no business being in that hand. especially after having no straight or flush draws, he further had no business calling a $40 bet. or the $55 bet on the turn which didnt help him at all. i was all in before the river 2 came up...fucker lucked out.
whatever, lesson learnt. never get into a hand with a guy who is wearing $4000 worth of jewelery.
