"I guess if it weren't for luck, I'd win them all."

Yush got to watch me as I made verbal predictions of hands off the flop ... and got to watch me as I lost both times. One time I had AA (one was clubs) with the flop of 743 ( all clubs ). Someone goes all-in, I say "man he's got jacks" and I call. As I see a jack on the turn I'm in anguish ... and then the cards are flipped over and I see I have lost.

I accurately predicted another hand when I had 97 with the flop of A97. Guy goes all-in and I call A9 and I call (totally pot committed, getting more than 4:1 to call) .. and he has it.

If you don't believe me doing this, ask Yush. He was listening/watching me as I was playing. Haha.

Earlier today, I was up to about $80 in chips at this one table and I butted heads with the other guy who had $84. He raises minimum preflop and I'm in the BB so I call with Q3. Flop comes Q63. A bit of a reraising war and then he goes all-in. Now, pot odds do not justify this call, but I would of given my life he had AA. I quickly run the hand calculations if he has an overpair against my weak two pair and see I'm a 3:1 favorite. So I call.. and guess what comes up the river? A nice ace. He catches a river set and instead of me having about $160, I have nothing.

I'm getting scary good at reading people now. Too bad the cards are just dicking me over.
