I know this isn't the bad beat forum, but no one reads that shit I need need some fucking sympathy right now.

Took a shot at 5/10

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $5/$10 Blinds - 4 Players -

SB: $384.80
BB: $1,549.25
Hero (UTG): $2,152.50
BTN: $2,024.00

Preflop: Hero is dealt T J (4 Players)
Hero raises to $35.00, BTN calls $35.00, 2 folds

Flop: ($85) 9 4 7 (2 Players)
Hero bets $60.00, BTN raises to $225.00, Hero calls $165.00

Turn: ($535) 8 (2 Players)
Hero bets $300.00, BTN raises to $1,100.00, Hero raises all-in to $1,892.50, BTN calls all-in for $664.00
Uncalled bet of $128.50 returned to Hero

River: ($4063) 4 (2 Players - 2 All-In)

Pot Size: $4,063.00 ($2 Rake)

BTN had 9 9 (a full house, Nines full of Fours) and WON (+$2,037.00)
Hero had T J (a straight, Jack high) and LOST (-$2,024.00)

I literally said "please" out load a split second before the 4 hit.
PSU Class of 2011 weeeeeeee!

This table had few callers PF, and opponents were easy to push off hands. Very passive... I could call with garbage and still take down a lot of pots.
