How do you beat luck?

Two days ago I was in a game and although I started on a 7 of hearts and 8 of hearts, I managed to pull a 7 of clubs and an 8 of diamonds the 3rd card was 2 of clubs. The previous players all limped in the pot and I decided to found out if they had anything substantial so I raised. The usual crazy guy re-raised so I went all in and the pot looked juicy.

We turned over and there I am 2 pairs, crazy guy has Queen of clubs and a 4 of spades. Next card 10 of clubs and the last card King of clubs. Naturally crazy guy could not believe his luck, he had a mad one and it came in. Sometimes I wonder is it any point in playing cards properly when luck can drop- in your lap like a seagull pooping over your car?

So I went and had a large glass of Johnny Walker Black, when I finished the glass and composed my senses, I decided to text a barmaid I knew who was always ‘up for it‘ If you know what I mean, but guess what? She is seeing an old flame and she maybe getting back with him so she could not do tonight or any other night.

Blimey things are definitely on the slide – lose 6 grand and a f*ck buddy all in one night. Need some help here and quickly. I then go out for a drink at the local. No footie so have a go at the fruit machine after watching an addict chuck his money down the machines throat. Yes you guessed it nothing as I go to the ba after doing £7, the addict comes back and wins the jackpot repeater…! What is going on?
