Call of the Week: DaMatrix (87%)

This week, I decide to award the C.O.W. award to myself for failing to fold the best hand when, inevitably, I would lose. Very, very stupid:

Cannot complain really. I put maverick364 on PP less than QQ/Ax (not AK/AQ). So, on the flop I bet small because I am not really worried about the turn. Wasn't expecting a reraise at all - so I was very happy to call feeling sure I was ahead.

-------------------------

Been having a little bad run in NL holdem 'em tournaments, forget about winning my share of 50-50s, I cannot win when a 70% or 90% favourite.

Bored of holdem in general, I have been playing a bit of PLO8B (Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo) ring at various sites and I am actually enjoying it. Some people with whom I have played O8B might find that surprising ;)
