my aggro bankroll rule is 14BI for the level im moving to. if i drop 2BI, i move back down.

ima nit usually...but i used this methodolgy 2mo ago, and it workd just fine. so long as u have the discipline.

I'm pretty sure i have the discipline.... think i'll go for it right now [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] hopefully i wont be back on here in half an hour cursing my bad luck/donkey play.

[Split Suit]

uve been on the bad side of str8 flush>str8 flush?

[Brimstead]

i haven't suffered that, tho i have suffered str8 flush over quads, and quads over aces full of kings, as im sure we all have...

100 nl started quite well - i flopped quads in a 3bet pot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Wish we could have got it all in here, i was praying he had KK, AA w/ A spdes or AK w/ A of spades.... guess he had some red queens or red aces.

should i have bet the turn?

Ugh I just dropped 7 BIs this morning in about 3000 hands.

[Baja15]

Yeah it's happened to me twice. Strangely it was with 34 both times

Hand #3
A note about this hand: I'm obviously going for a check-raise on the turn. Or at least a check/call with the intention of shoving the river. On the river, I accidentally check (while multi-tabling). Luckily villian bets.

Not working in converter.

amazing call
