Lucky/unlucky

I've come to the conclusion I'm truly cursed. It's followed me all my gambling life.

Tonight : AA 2nd hand on cash table. Flush comes runner runner after me betting out. Ho Ho.

5th hand I flop top pair and bet out twice to be caught by straight on river. Ho ho.

Flop 2 sets. No action even though I've been aggro as, all through.

It's been symptomatic all my life.

Lochsong lost me more money than it won me. Google the beauty. I even caught it early.

Almost a mathematical impossibility that I could lose on Greece's Euro win due to offers available by the upcoming on-line bookie's offers. I lost.

I've a mate who's an accountant whom I regale with my tales. He laughs and laughs and laughs and tells me it's almost impossible. He's pretty much calculated that the lottery's mine. But predicts I'll lose the ticket.
I'm thouroughly sick of it.

Don't get me wrong. My life is good. My son is a wonder and a thing of beauty. I get far more good looking girls than my big lugs afford me. And laughs have been aplenty in my life. But my gambling luck is just beyond the pale. Beyond ridiculous.

I read so many threads about suck-outs. I've, admittedly had one, maybe two, but the hundreds agaianst me balance that out.

I'm not a plonker Dohhhhhh. I ain't blaming anything. Confuscious taught me well. But I'm plum un-fin-lucky.

Maybe a thread for Area 51, I dunno. I just needed to vent.

But what're the options? Work for my wages and look after my lawn? Ha, ha, drawn out ha. Primo's how much 2mro?

    I didn't have Greece! I was betting on individual matches (good things) and betting on other good things with the matched free bets. Opened 3 bank accounts and had 3 e-mail accounts to do it. I knew good things don't always come in but it was kick upon kick upon kick in the teeth at that tourney. Didn't actually lose that much but it could have/ should have been soooo much better.

    Positive thinking ftw! Luck
