Was there for a few hours had a guy on $1-2 raising from $17 upwards $25 every second hand. Would occasionally limp in the check the flop and turn then bet out like $50 on the river into a pot of$6 or $8
Hmm we might've been on the same table. #2? Was there from like 8 or 9p until 12.30

If it's the same table I took down the same guy with a bad beat and he didn't get over it for like 90 minutes.
JQo, I call his $25 pre-flop bet.
Flop comes QT5 and he shoves all-in. He has me covered and I call with like $80-$100. He shows QT for two-pair.
Turn comes J and river is air

Nope i was table 35 till someone spilt their drink all over it and we got moved.

Could very well be the same guy though. I got all the money he had in front when I limped in with Kings and he bluffed off his chips on a A 3 3 7 A board with 7 8
He left the table but was on the table behind directly in front of me 5 minutes later. Was he an older guy probably 40's maybe early 50's kinda vacant expression on his face?

Reading the hand you posted sounds very much like him. Q 10 probably best hand he'd done it with :D
He was constantly raising with A2 A3.

Why I rarely play anymore. Overnight at Crown. Not getting lucky, observing others getting lucky.

I raise with 99 flop 983r, can't make any money.

I raise with 77, flop 833cc, idiot checks to me, I bet 20, one caller, idiot check-raises to 65, I consider calling but fold, the other two check down JK run out and idiot has 44. * I could punch him, he always check-raises me, but when I'm not in a hand he plays ABC.

I get 99, there's a raise to 20, I call, next guy raises to 50, first guy shoves for 105, just ******* great, I can't call because I know it will cost me my stack. Of course it's a 9-high flop.

Another hand, limped round. Flop 754cc, BB bets 75 into a small pot, one caller. Turn A, call. River A, all in for 105. BB has AK, no flush draw, caller had 86cc for flopped nuts and OESFD. People don't spaz money to me, I'm not that lucky.

I had missed my blinds so was in for $3. New player sits down, young Asian, obv LAG, or even SLAG (super LAG). He makes it 20, one caller, I'm down a buy-in and would normally fold, but I call with 76o, two more calls. Flop 543cch. Idiot new player shoves 280. I mean, what kind of ******* idiot shoves 280 into 100? I think for a little while and re-shove, was trying to think if there was any chance of getting a caller, those chances were slim.

Turn: 2h.

River: 9h.

He has AThh.

I ******* lose it. $700 pot and I lose it like that. * poker. If I exhaust my current roll that's it, I'm done. * poker.

I would have loved to slowroll the **** if he had only made a wheel, stupid **** deserves a slowroll for such stupidity.

Don't hate the game though, there's always an element of luck but you have made some mistakes and poor/incorrect reads on the table there too and missed some value. There's always a better way to play a hand. Just learn from it and if you are getting regularly beaten at Crown then you might not have the skill to beat that level, so try some easier games.
