It is coming to the point where I am getting too angry because this has been happening for the last 3 months at least. He wins EVERY showdown. Not all of my hands are super-premium, but he hits runner-runner for 9 high straights while holding 57 off, or calls with suited 63 to hit a flush, or calls with pocket sevens when I have two pair, then he hits trips. I don't understand how someone can be so lucky against one person. I really want punch him in the throat next time this happens. Whew, I know I sound like a whiny biotch but enough is enough. He can't be lucky forever can he?

I know the feeling. I also have a nemesis in the home game I play in. Since we play Dealer's Choice with so many different variations of games we usually end up going head to head against each other quite often when we play in a night. We also exchange verbal jabs at each other throughout the night as well. We are neighbors but we really don't like each other, especially when playing cards. He does get extremely lucky against me at times as well. As far as the win/loss record against each other I think we are almost about even, but last time I nailed him pretty good during a hand of Holdem when I flopped the nut straight that held up and he pushed all in with a small pair
