Default Whats wrong with people?

I had a KK in the SB this morning. 4 people left in a sng. and nobody bets. I match the BB to milk the hand. The BB goes all in. I figure he is just trying to scare me off and suck up the $600 blinds. I go all in and the bastard has only a 35 off. Of course I am happy as a pig in shit. I busted his ass trying to bluff rob the blinds. But no, the flop comes out 249. Then a 10 and the icing on the cake is he gets a 6 on the river for a straight. What kind of crap is that?

That sounds ridiculous---he was either high or he had to go. Either way, he's an idiot just another player that got lucky hitting a 4-1 loser. Some luck is tolerable, but I hate paying off THAT kind of luck!

There are two pet peeves in my life.

1. People who enter the interstate at 40 MPH

2. People who are bigger idiots than me. For God's sake folks, let me in the Guiness Book of World Records for something!!!!

NOTE: The latter group is extremely rare. Of the small existing group that is out there, 84.7% are poker players on PS.

You hit my "button!"

I absolutely HATE people who do not know how to merge into traffic at onramps. I was taught many moons ago by my driving instructor in high school that when you are on the interstate and in the right hand lane to stay in your lane, maintain your speed so that the person coming onto the interstate can gauge your speed and merge into your lane accordingly by either speeding up or slowing down.

I cannot tell you how many times I have been flipped off for staying in the right lane and maintaining my speed for the person merging to blend in.

I always seem to run into these people who like to jockey back and forth while i am at a constant speed and run out of room at the end of the onramp and have to hit the gas at the last second. Of course when at that point, I look in my mirror and I cannot move to the next lane over, wind up hitting my brakes and risk being rear-ended.

Am I doing something wrong here, or are people just plain stupid?

Years ago, when I was still a patrol cop, I stopped a yahoo for merging into 55 mph traffic at 30 mph. During the ensuing conversation, I, in my most authoritative but instructingly (?) voice, pointed out that the accelerator is the pedal on the right, while the brake is the one to the left.

The reply was "what do you do when you catch a real criminal?"

"I don't know, all I ever catch are innocent people."

Was that a long enough response to your last question Paul? ;D

I agree about the merging for sure, but since I live in Detroit most people are doing 85 anyways...but I am starting a campaign to educate the masses about about the beauty of using the fucking cruise control!!! Everytime you come to a hill these assholes slow down 10 miles an hour, only to speed up 20 on the downside...If not a hill, they will pass you and pull in front, only to slow down, then when you are forced to switch lanes and pass, they speed up and block you in the left lane!!! ???

By the way, I am new here, met "VIQAN"<--- i think that was his PS name, but i was a little tipsy (uncle Jim dropped by for a sunday visit)<--thats uncle Jim Beam for the lay person} playing sit and gos on PS the other day and he invited me, seems like a great fucking site.

Played the sunday 10+1 and came in 26, the only suprise was I didn't lose with rockets this time...it was Ks, but im not bitter.

Bottoms up Ladies and Gents
