My half-crocked argument on the $1/$2 table with the dude who I just took for a lousy $4 (my Q4 over his Q9)

#388927115: Boygza wins $11.25 from the main pot with a pair of fours.
bill777: wow
Boygza: that was absurdly ugly
bill777: half the deck could of drop for me
Boygza: i was shouting "split it up" because i didn't see the pair
bill777: cant buy a card
bill777: only one card could drop for him
#388928684: slawdaug wins $8.50
bill777: the fact that he bet into that is amazing enough
Boygza: i'm at a bar playing on my laptop - people were looking at me funny
bill777: just make lots of deposit playing like that
Boygza: when i was all "split it up!"
smitty947: you didnt have much better
slawdaug: had ak
Boygza: you never made it two bets bill
Boygza: there's your problem
#388930747: jr3500 wins $5
bill777: oh so your putting on a show
Boygza: no, i feel dumb with all these people staring
Boygza: but to say i played that badly isn't true
Boygza: you make that two bets, i fold
#388932572: slawdaug wins $9
Boygza: you messed up, not me
bill777: i needed a card
Boygza: yeah, but you let me luck into mine
Boygza: them's the breaks my friend
Boygza: two overcards and straight potential out there, you let me keep drawing
bill777: dude i not raising nothing into AK10
Boygza: me either, so don't say i played that badly
Boygza: it was a bull crap luck thing
#388934310: jr3500 wins $22.50 from the main pot with two pairs, fives and threes.
Boygza: just happened to hit the four
Boygza: that's all
bill777: play the way you want we both were looking for cards
slawdaug: trips
bill777: not only did you play it badly you had no business in the hand after 4 street
#388937000: jr3500 wins $25 from the main pot with two pairs, aces and fives.
Boygza: neither did you there chuckles... but i caught
Boygza: after fourth street, i believe we both checked
bill777: i had an outside straight draw as opposed to an inside and I had a flush draw
#388941410: JEM7VSBL wins $18.75 from the main pot with two pairs, aces and jacks.
jr3500: nh
JEM7VSBL: ty
Boygza: and you failed to make me pay
Boygza: plain and simple
bill777: you won i am happy for you
bill777: if you think it was a good play please put me on your buddy list
bill777: in fact do it anyway
