Here's how my Party Reload went...
This is just one fine example, albeit probably the finest.
Please note the worst play of my life here, on the river, when I RAISED while playing the board! How could anyone be so stupid, you ask? Well, because as soon as I saw this flop, I fully expected to lose the hand (like everything else that night) and was wondering how I would manage to lose this one. I was already on the verge of tilt and when that 6 hit on the turn (basically taking away one of my Queens), I was definitely fuming. I was hitting the autoplay buttons as fast as possible, really trying to force bets into the pot. If you don't know what I'm talking about here, good.... I don't get like this much, and I hate when I do. Anyway, when the river card came, he bet instantly, and I had already hit raise before I even looked at the board. This is NOT smart poker!
I quit not long after this, since clearly, the ridiculous run of cards was affecting my play. It cost me $20 here alone - 10% of that stupid bonus. The call on the river when I knew he had an Ace, btw, was more for my own personal satisfaction of seeing the garbage he called me down with than actually thinking there was even a chance we'd be splitting the pot.
There is a lesson to be learned here about playing on tilt. Learn it.

I realize he had a whopping 4 outs after the turn, but there were only 5 cards in the deck that could help him after the flop and he needed TWO of them. Gotta love it.
