Ugggggggghh.
Had about $20 left in my Party Poker account last night, hadn't played in some time cause of a new job, wedding coming up, busy, etc.
Had nothing going on last night, decided to blow it or turn it into something. Sat down at $11 sit-n-go, got 1st. Played another, got 2nd. Went to a $0.50/$1 ($50 max buy) NL cash table. Started drinking, Budweisers and shots of Sambuca (black licorice flavored liqour, 80 proof, gets you tore up). Not getting hammered, just unwinding, it's been a long week at work and Friday was almost here. Only had a few (so far).
Sat down with $30 (had about $80 in account at this point I think), turned it into $90 when I tripled up w/ A-10 off. Funny hand actually, flop was A-Q-J, really loose guy on my left goes in for his $40 or so, another calls. Loosie has Q-8 (WTF?!?), caller has A-K, so I'm f'ed until a K hits the river (sweet revenge for the MANY outdraws I have taken at PP).
Get up from the table with about $140, go to the bar to meet a friend for drinks. Only have 2 as I am itchin' to get home and play some more. Get home about 10:00, sit down, things are just going my way. Soon I'm up over $200, then 3. Getting hammered at this point. Eventually I black out, man that Sambuca can F you up good. Last thing I remember is the GF going to bed around 1:00. She says I came stumbling in to bed around 3.
Highest amount I remember having was around $360. Checked the account this morning. Zero.
:nohead:
To make it worse, I had to get up at 5:45 for work this morning. So I am sitting at my desk feeling like a sack of shit, all the while knowing I blew some $300+ last night cause I was an idiot and got drunk.
:nohead:
Noone's fault but mine, you don't have to tell me that. Just typing this story to try and stay awake. :smoking:
