						I think I got the perfect thing, cardsman
 looks like we got to get the green fairy involved
  
 
  
 
 
 
 I'm only posting this hand, to remind myself some of my own previously rediscovered mantras
 
 -don't go for broke in unraised pots (unless, of course, you got the nuts)
 -FUKCING RAISE PREFLOP!

 amny things are wrong here:
 
 i'm the button, and I don't raise preflop
 i only raised turn +600, so if he had a flush draw (since he would think that I would not raise if I had my own FD), he'd have to call 600 to win (600+300+550) 1450, plus implied odds if he hit that offsuit straight out.
 
 so basically, I played like shit, and i have to make sure this mistake never repeats up again.
