"McMansioned" is ... what has been done to you when your full house has lost to a better one.
This is an excerpt from my February 18, 2011 post. In yesterday's session, I got McMansioned in an especially brutal way. When the money bubble was close to bursting, I was so short-stacked that my only realistic chance of making the money was to fold every marginal hand, and hope that the tournament shed players faster than I was shedding chips. :-) As it turned out, every hand I was dealt from that point on was marginal, and I soon fell in. On my final hand, I was dealt an eight and another card which I don't recall. An eight and a jack showed up in the flop, the turn was another eight, and the river was a jack. This gave me a full house, eights full of jacks. Really lucky, right? Sure; not as lucky, however, as the player who'd been dealt pocket jacks, giving him a full house, jacks full of eights. I exited as the bubble boy, missing the money by a single spot.
In other news, I decided a while ago to post much less frequently, but not to mothball this blog completely.
