Pascale's Wager

Everyone makes choices based on assessments of risk and reward. I accept that every choice I make is essentially a gamble with my life. How do we learn to make good decisions?

Kick me while I'm down...

...why don'tcha?

Man, I am running soooo bad in poker right now. The hand that broke this particular camel's back just now: It's the bubble of a 6-max sit-n-go. I'm on the button with A2 suited. I make a pot-sized raise. Small blind (the shortstack) folds. Big blind (the big stack) calls.

Flop comes KK2. Big blind checks. I figure, hey, I'm golden here. I go all-in; I need this pot and I need to take it now before the big blind can draw out.

Instacall. Of course the big stack has a king for trips.
I mean COME ON.

Hand after hand after hand of the odds running against me. It's really demoralizing. When I run bad, I run really bad. We're now into a month of this nonsense.

Fucking poker. Gah! My life is starting to feel like a bad beat.
