118 to 1 (Twice) !

I purchased a new system, nothing special but it does have the operating system installed, MS Vista. Getting a new system is exciting, however the downloading of all the information. Downloading all the poker software like Poker Tracker, PA HUD, FTP, Stars and the like takes all day. However, once they are downloaded, then files have to be transferred and such, this is very time consuming. Of course it doesn’t go without a hitch, so it is back to the re-install and re-configuration. Finally, I have downloaded the latest version of PAHUD, and it doesn’t work, UGH! If you have read the rant about the 5 buy-in loss, then you will enjoy this session.
I have just added a new database that will be based on my new style of play. I should add that my 18-22 month poker career shows a total of $500.00 to the bad, and add the software I have purchased over time; the number is a little south of $600.00, throw in the rake and the number is close to $800.00; the sample of hands is approximately 25,000.
That being said, I am going to employee a new strategy that will gain back my losses, and finally put me ahead.
So I am configuring both the PT and the PAHUD. I sit down at a table on FTP just to get a hand in, so I can add myself to the database. I jump in a 25NL game, thinking it is a 10NL game. Buy in for the minimum ($10.00); thinking it is the maximum, and sit down to catch the Big Blind, perfect! As I look around, everyone is well stacked, I think, because they have 2 buy-ins each at the 10NL; however I will discover this isn’t a 10NL table. In the Big Blind, I catch a suited Q/10 (Goolsby) of diamonds. Playable to an open call, however I guy in MP puts in a 4X raise to $1.00. I have no information on the villain, but he did the same thing in the hand I sat in on and everyone folded! I want to have the hand raked, so I call hoping to hit a monster flop. If I don’t hit, I can check/fold and be done with it, getting the hand raked and the new database running. Well the flop comes out A96 of diamonds. What the hell, talk about a monster! I have the second nut flush, and I am sure the villain may have the A! I bet out ¾ of the pot, and sure enough get called. I am thinking this is the wrong time to look me up, Broseph! The turn delivers a blank, and I play the hand to check/raise. The villain bets the pot, I push all in, and get an insta-call, WTF! He turns over K8 (Kokomo) of diamonds for the nut flush! He raised in MP with the K8s. But what is really more impressive are the odds of this happening. The odds of flopping a flush, while holding 2 suited cards, are about 118 to 1. That being said, what are the odds of flopping 2 flushes while holding 2 suited cards. Man I was destine to lose my stack, Luckily, I bought I light. So what started out being a systems check, ended up a $10.00 loss and a very ugly opening session in the new database. I never should have been in the hand, but once in, what a f’ing cooler. My last 3 days have been very similar to this. POKER!
