I heart poker

Four people left in a $20 sit-n-go. I've been chip leader for most of the tournament but the guy opposite me has hit a string of hands and taken a very slight lead. He's in the big blind, and I'm under the gun with JJ.

I raise the blinds (75/150 at this point) to 450, dude calls in the big blind.

Flop comes 468. Wewt ^^

Guy bets out into me, 600. I raise to 1500. He calls.

Turn is an ugly card, a Q, but it misses the club flush that is out there. Dude bets out 1050. I call.

River is an 8. Dude bets out 1200, almost all of my remaining stack. I call. He has 8-10.

I knew I should have raised on the turn but I was only about 80% that he didn't have a Queen, and figured that if he had a hand other than a queen, he was less than 20% to hit. I was right, and now, here I am, doing that most pathetic of poker things, complaining about a bad beat.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.... I was so ready to take that one down, too.
