Default Breaking even the hard way

After a hard couple hours bonus whoring a new site, here's my graph for the day:

http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/scrabb...pg&amp;.src=ph

I was playing at a great table with a couple of total donks, but they just kept sucking out on me and I couldn't hit a hand. Finally got 4 huge pots in a row with A8 (two pair), 86s (flush), AK and KQ. Never seen such a steep upswing.

Tough way to make an easy living, indeed.

Default Re: The greatest NC hand ever

Not to post content in here, but this flop action looks ideal for a little pump-the-pot 3-bet. Your equity here is dangerously high with 5-way action, and it looks like your opponents love to call.

But congrats on the RF, I got my first and only Royal playing in a NL tourney with friends. I was shortstacked heads up and went all in with A8o against my friend's AQs. I had the Royal Flush by the turn. Put him on tilt so bad he lost the tourney, even with his chip lead after my all-in hand.

Default Downswing Over

Got paid back for all the bad beats that I've had online lately. Played in a live $20 + rebuys + $50 add on live tourney yesterday. Won every race I got into after the addon, and put my last 5 chips in with K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in a 4 handed pot and hit a str8. Smooth sailing from there made a deal at the end and walked away with $1750!
