After taking several bad beats, Mike is a bit down ... Sometimes, you just can't beat a drunk.  He even contemplates getting a real job.  Steve tries to stop that crazy talk right away and they go on to dissect several hands from recent cash sessions.

If there is a theme to these hand histories, it would be bet sizing.  In each hand there is a lot to be learned from the bet sizes.
