Ok I have to share some with you guys. I used to play in the biggest underground spot that was.. very gambol gambol.
I have read every post but nothing compares to the 100's I have from the 5-6 years I spent every tue, thur and sat there.
Heres a good 1. On a Thursday night at 7 we started playing 20-40 lhe and two brothers Max & James would play there when they were flush but never higher than 10-20 and mostly 4-8. Well one night they come in playing every hand and losing terribly.
At 1 am Max announces he's down 4k in this f-ing game and he's not leaving til he's even. He doesn't fold a hand for 2 hrs and I mean raising, reraising, capping with bottom pair or ace hi! He now decides to start accusing the dealer of cheating him and the games rigged bla bla bla. His poor brother agrees because he doesn't play when his brothers involved in a pot. So he basically says i've lost 500 folding every hand for 3 hours and this games gotta be fixed how could I not be able to play 1 hand in 3 hours.
We can't believe when we realize these guys are stuck like 7200 playing 20-40! They leave about 35 minutes later after asking for credit and they get turned down. They come back about 5 am and are completely quiet and buy in for 2k each which is a lot considering theres only 3 of us left and maybe 4400 on the table.
They're winning but not much when suddenly james asks if any1 wants to play 100-200 I say I will but not 3 handed with two brothers and their 3900, james says they have 10k and whips out a wad of money.
I realized there was no way I was gonna play these guys as I hadn't slept in 27 hrs and wasn't playing well. So we agree to play 30-60 I win and quit at 11 am they're still playing when I leave still shocked by how those guys had that kinda roll as I'd never seen em play higher than 10-20.
Fast forward I wake up at 9 pm to phone ringing it's a friend who tells me james and max where arrested for a home invasion where they robbed a local bookie for 15k at 4 am.
They're still in jail im pretty sure but a friend of mine saw James at court and asked him why he did all this. He replied "that 10-20 is some bulls==t!!"

my degen story... 4,40 is just about all i have left on PS, i enter the daily limit holdem tourney with it.
play great run good take down first place for 360$.
the next day lose it all playing a 115$ buyin horse tournament and a bunch of 20-50$ LHE STTs.
now im back to the micro grind
sick degen but the sickest part is i dont even know anything about horse, and i got 7th in that tourney, and top 6 cashed. hand i went out on i had 6 low in razz. it was like god set up the perfect punishment to teach me not to spend 1/3 my bankroll on a tournament buy in.
