Big hands still suck (First DQB in ages!)

Normally a min-3bet might scare me, but villain is 30/30 and is generally carrying himself like a dumbass. Have I ever mentioned I hate flushes?

Okay, so things got a bit better. I sucked out on somebody for the first time in god knows how long, and this was the final result.

It's ironic that KK, QQ and JJ have all been huge losers for me, but AK seems to win for me almost every time. Wierd.



And to cap it off, this happened shortly after my suckout (to the same poor bastard that I sucked out on)

It feels good to suck out on someone. For so long I've only been putting my $ into the pot when I've had the best hand, but now I'm starting to float a lot more. I see people with horrible hands hit runner runner or just one of their miracle outs - why can't I be that guy for a change? Not gonna do it for all my chips, but the chance to use scare cards or steal on the river is always there too.
