You know, the guy who no matter how well you play always seems to get lucky against you......they can be a good player or an idiot but they seem to take more than a fair share of your bankroll!
Mine is juggedfish - he raises 18% preflop, but if I reraise him with a mid to big pair then he has AA, of if I have AA or KK he hits his set (as he calls all big reraises with small pairs). Yesterday he got me by raising UTG with 86s, and flopping 10, 9, 7 when I hit a set and a flush on Turn with set of Aces!!!!! |

My nemesis was this one girl who I'll call Sylvia......Her and her husband always came to our home games. Now I admit that she was an aggressive and good player.....but she got lucky on me so many times it was almost sickening. I'd have a 10 high straight, She'd have the Jack high straight. I'd have Kings over Aces full....she'd have Aces over Kings full....She'd go all in with A/10, I'd call -w- A/K and she'd hit her 10.... and so on...You know what I mean?
Whenever I would dominate a table, she would start talking crap. Needling me here and there. Whenever she would dominate, I'd be quiet, but she'd still talk crap anyways. But you know how it is for a man. You gotta keep your smart a$$ comments to yourself when bantering with a 'lady', lest everyone judge you for being 'ungentlemanly'.
Whenever I played a great hand and drew maximum chip damage from someone like her husband -w- quads against his 2 pair, she would look at him and roll her eyes as if I was a lucky suckout. But whenever he would go all in with 2 pair and I would call with a straight and then he hit the miracle card on the river for the full house, she and he would talk crap to me as if I made a donk move.
One day, A buddy and I were dominating her so badly at the final table, 3 way action, that she started to fk with us by taking her sweet a$$ time to place her blinds and bets. The blinds were 150/300 and she decided to start using her extra $1 & $5 chips to make the blinds and the bets. This was wasting so much fkng time. We asked her to use her $100 chips to speed things up, but she refused, stating that she didnt want to, because her $100 chips were 'pretty' and she didn't want to 'waste' them.
Well after the 3rd time in a row, I ripped into her verbally. I didn't curse her out or anything, I just let her know that she was acting like a kid and that she needed to play the game and stop wasting our time.
Needless to say, we busted her out. Then she went to the living room to hang out with our wives/friends who were all busted out from earlier. She was seen crying, as if a relative of hers had died.
I have to admit though, It was kind of nice to see her so upset after all of the bad beats that she put my way.  |

I wouldn't have guessed your nemesis would be a lady named Sylvia, lol Maybe I wasn't such a good forum nemesis after all!
I don't play enough with the same people to really have a nemesis, so I guess I'm looking at the three-headed succubus named Rake, Alcohol, and Tilt. |

| Definitely my friend Vic. How you hell do you win 10 hands of Ohama, including 5 all-ins without lookin at your cards. "Oh, I just knew it was good." "I felt that ace-jack in my hand." Man, what a douchebag. |

My brother. With all due respect, dear brother, you are Superdonk. In fact, the Legion of Doom wants you to join as you are the El-Supremo Donk-O.
I swear he hits more 2 outers in O8, more perfect perfects versus my brick bricks in Razz, and more gutshots versus my two pair in LHE more than anyone I play.
He admitted that he will TRY and suck out on me just so he can laugh at my misfortune. One day I'm going to kick him in the butt. Of course, I'll probably hurt my foot because that is where El-Supremo Donk-O shoved the donkey-shoe. |

Without a doubt, Doyle Brunson. That lucky mother ****er always manages to beat me every time we play. I dunno how he does it, but that S.O.B. must be getting crazy lucky to beat me every time |

| Super Grip from the MBJ tournaments. I've never been all in as an underdog against him, but I've also never beat him on the all in. He constantly out draws me. He is a good player, but damn, when you catch trips or two pair on the river every time, there's something other then skill involved....like fate. My fate is to consistently lose to him whenever one of us is all in, in the same pot. |

There is this little old lady who I cannot beat. She's about 80. She is a 4'9", 78lb, orthopedic-shoe-wearing, a$$whooper. She will neither fold nor miss the craziest of draws. It's as if God is saying, "Well, your odds to river that set are about the same as your odds to live for the next 5 minutes. I'll guess I'll just give you this last one." Poof! Set of ducks on the river beats my two pair. Even worse, she is always at the cardroom. I'm pretty sure her Buick broke down in the parking lot in 1973 and she hasn't left since.
Even if I could beat her I would feel bad about taking an old lady's money. Never play with old folks! You just can't win. |
