Reaping What I've Sown
I went looking for donks, and donks I have found. The problem is that they kept confirming that they were donks by showing me how they had outdrawn me by showdown. Grrrrrr. It was a night for negative variance, but I was only down about 15 BB by the end. Nothing in the form of beats that we haven't all seen before, except that I had slick or suited slick 4 times in the first 3 orbits, flopped TPTK all 4 times, and never took a pot with it. That stuck out in my mind as out of the ordinary.
I really hate going card dead for a long spell when there is a donkfest going on in front of me, too. Watching the crappiest hands take down huge pots while I play good poker by folding my trash gets me a little frustrated. I did take down a nice NL pot at the end of my evening when my set of fours became fours full of fives on the turn, but donkzilla thought he would blow me off the pot with his flushdraw. I smooth called, and he made his hand on the river. He check-raised me all-in, and I stacked him. That was cool.
Happy Chasing!
