Weekend Happy Thread XI: The Rodomontade
 

N00bs, 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.

Here's some tricky/trappy goodness to get you started:

Re: Weekend Happy Thread XI: The Rodomontade
 

Meh. When you 6-table, if you play for a few hours, you'll normally get a couple stackage hands. I also play late nites alot, after midnite, so can pull a hand out from a 2am session. I haven't played since I woke up today. Also, the first hand I post in the OP is just to get things started as an example. I'll go into the database if I have to for that first hand if I haven't played, which I've done a couple times for Happy Threads; but, every other hand I'd post in this thread will be played over the weekend.
