N00bs and rubes, NL is a game where we can be playing for stacks on any given hand. You should find within this thread various methods of getting your stack in the middle. Open to all, post your awesomeness here. Enjoy!

Requirements for posting hands in this thread:

1. Hero believes he played the hand well.
2. HERO MUST WIN AT LEAST 80 bb's.
3. Post only converted hands and remember to post results.
4. It's also very nice of you if you can take the results out of white, so we don't have to highlight to see them.
5. If it's not obvious why you played the hand the way you did, give a quick reasoning.

So, if you play a hand that qualifies over the weekend, post it here and share the joy. Weekend starts now and runs through Sunday night.

Let the stacking commence!

I took a shot at $50NL this weekend. Only played about 1K hands, but my bankroll is now padded!

You would think I'd have nothing to complain about running bad or anything, but JJ vs KK TWICE vs the SAME aggro-tard who had already taken me off hands, 3-bet me multiple times, etc. sucked balls.

favourite hand is definitely this one (I'll just recite from memory cuz it takes too long otherwise).

My image is really bad, I've been playing super-lag, probably 33/30/6 or something insane like that. I've been 3betting light etc.

50NL. Eff. stacks $50, 6 handed
UTG+1 opens for $2 (I think he was decent, 30/20 or 22/15 or something), button calls (~60/20/4), I reraise QQ in SB to $9, both call (LOL IMAGE).

Flop: Jh6h2x (Pot: $27)
I bet ~$10, UTG+1 calls, button folds.

Turn 4d (Pot: $50)
I push ~25 (I think?), guy calls

river blank, AJ no good.
