Default Took a Couple of Shots at 5/10 NL

So the last week or two I took a couple of shots at 5/10NL. These shots aren't really that big of shots, because I usually play 2/4 and some 3/6.

Beat: My call in hand 1 is bad.
Brag: Won 600+bb while taking a shot at 5/10nl.
Variance: My first post in BBV.

Additional Brags: I have not had aces cracked in the last 98 times I was dealt them. I have not had them cracked since 9/19. (I just doomed myself.)

Wow, is that 300bb's with AKo very nice.

I had a 15,000 hand stretch where my aces lost money recently, and they were running pretty normal before that, so have fun when variance catches up with ya.

So basically, all you need to do to win is get aces a bunch?

To be fair, if I could ever envision someone getting it in with AK for 300bbs, that's the exact HH.
