Bad river money

Last night, the slump continued apace. I'm forced to admit that I've been making some very bad decisions here and there. You don't have to make bad decisions very often in order for them to be able to destroy you. One of the worst kinds of bad decision you can make is to spend bad money on the river.

This is an excerpt from my May 2, 2015 post. Last night, I spent bad river money on a hand where I had two pair, but the board supported a straight. An opponent made a big bet, and I knew I shouldn't call, but I couldn't help myself. The imp of the perverse struck again :-)
