Default BRAG: i doubled my bankroll

BEAT: my bankroll was only $240...

I was besperate to either finally make some money (more than + - $20) so I decided to do what ppl with ACTUAL bankrolls on here sometimes do, & play a night of either DOUBLE UP or BUST.

I'm new to multi-tabling, & I think it took me WAY longer to reach my goal because I missed some hands I probably would've played had I been playing a single game...



Played about 2k hands I think, & ended the night on $498!

I'm stoked & life is good again.

Here's some hands. Any advice anyone can give would be hugely appreciated. :-)

i guess i've missed the part where you DOUBLE UP or BUST. it's NL10 and you are severely overrolled.
