[QUOTE="IrishDave, post: 322200, member: 3388"]
In the past 2 days I've left about $40 on the cash tables at Noble and Full Tilt.  I onlly played good hands and I was continually pounded by folks rivering with 7-4 offsuit.  I have finally determined that skill is a factor in this game ONLY if you have a bottomless pocket.  An example is I raised about 4xBB with AA, a player went all-in (about $10).  I of course called.  He turned 4-6 offsuit and caught a straight on the river.  I stayed calm and continued to play a good tight game and I NEVER won a hand when I led pre-flop.  If I had millions in the bank, I still wouldn't go all-in with nothing.  About 5 minutes ago, I lost $12 on FullTilt.  I went in with KQ suited (diamonds) the flop was Ks-Qd-4c. I have top 2 pair so I bet $3, other player raises $6, I call.  You guessed it, turn and river were both clubs and he turned up 8-3 of clubs.  You just cannot get past dumb luck I guess.
 
 I think I'm going to retire, cash out what I have, and try to get a live game going.  At least in a live game I can slap some sense into people that play like idiots but are BLESSED with a never ending supply of luck.  This kind of play takes all the fun out of playing and we must all remember that it is a game...
