Nice story.

Everytime my girlfriend watches me play poker I constantly get, "Why aren't you playing that?" It's always a shitty hand, and she doesn't understand that if you play shitty cards, you will lose money quickly.

Wife's response after "I" lost the $40 - "I thought they were bluffing."

My wife is the same way, "you'll never win if you keep folding AJ suited". Keep in mind there was a UTG all-in and a caller.

Yeah - There were 2 all-ins that had both had her hand beat which I knew but she thought they were both bluffing! LOL

Women are just generally looser than guys in general, no pun intended.

My girlfriend will do the same thing. I can't stand it when she overplays a pair when overcards hit the board .

Too funny.

Last Saturday at my NL $30 buy-in ring game, we only had 6 players. The wife is constantly checking my cards before I get them, and the people I'm playing with are going to pick up on her tells much easier than mine.

So I gave her $20 to sit down with just so I could play my own hands.

She lost her $20 - mostly to me - in about 15 minutes. Then she went to bed.

I think investing the $20 in her to stop standing behind me and nudging me every time I had a good hand was more than worth it.

Another thing my wife is good for is constantly saying "they're bluffing" well that may very well be true, but I still can't call with 2 unders!

Agreed - I probably should have jsut paid her $40 to leave me alone. Afterwards, she asked if I wanted her to give me the $40. I said sure as soon as you can figure out how to put it back into my account at Pokerroom. LOL

Anyone ever have wife/gf put the mush/jinx on you? Last year I was playing in a WSOP freeroll (I think pokerroom??) anyway, there were 5000 entrants so it took awhile. I told the wife, leave me alone, dont come in room, dont ask me how I'm doing etc etc etc. Things started great, busted a bunch of weak player, doubled thru a few times. then the cards went sour, i mean nothing. but I was a rock, fold fold fold. still doing well. down to 51 players, on button AKo. just as they are dealt, yep, here comes the wife. "hows it going honey" etc. Of course a raise in front of me, but someone who has me covered but i think i have a good read on. i reraise allin, get a call with ?? cant remember exactly, but it wastnt even a pp. Of course I get busted by runner runner. finish in 51st. I could have killed her. really. Of course i get ridiculed for even suggesting that she had anything to do with it. Couldnt leave me alone for like 5 hours in arow??????? unreal!!
any other mushes out there?

ps. anyone remember which room ran those freerolls last year. I have new cpu and cant remember which rooms i had downloaded. and will any have real freerolls this year. I'll post new thread on this some other time maybe
