Eighteened again

Last night, I played quite well, despite the fact that I ended up hitting the felt. On the third to last hand of the night, I had a great chance to double up. I'd flopped a stealth two pair, and called an all-in turn bet from an opponent whose stack was almost as big as mine. He turned over pocket queens, and was an eighteen percent dog. Wouldn't you know, the river was another queen, giving him a set and winning him a pot worth $82,100. I was crippled, with just $1,269 left.

To paraphrase a song lyric, "I wish I weren't eighteened again"!

delta: $-40,000
balance: $6,240,883
