<font color="red">Hero raises to $4</font>, CO calls $4, 2 folds, BB calls $3

Flop: ($12.50) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 Players)

Hero showed T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (Royal Flush) and WON $268.68 (+$135.59 NET)

Brag: Royal Flush
Brag: Party Poker
Brag: UP 34.6K since i discovered Party July 15th this year.
Beat: Back at NL100 to get some discipline back. After playing all limits the side offers i need to find a main limit. I can't handle the variance of NL1K although i'm +23.8K at that particular limit. -5K days just hurt too much.
Brag: NL100 is so easy it's not even funny. +26 BI's in less than 3K hands (yes i run good). Will do for now.
Brag: Finished University last month. Playing poker full time before finding a job.
Beat: Im lazy and should play way more hands.
Beat: Play 2 tables max and a lot of the time just 1.

Variance: The hand below. Donk on donk river violence.

I guess i induced some of the flaming but i'll try to explain my situation. I gratuated from Uni the 27th of August, after that i went 'pro' as in that poker is my only source of income. I planned on having atleast an 8k month at NL400 with some occasional shots at NL600. It turned out to be a rather swingy month where i lost control numerous times which resulted in tilt induced shots at NL2K/NL5K. Luckily the shots at NL5K went well. The shots at NL2K were a disaster though. All in all it was a +6800 month, still way more than i will earn with my first job.
Looking back at September i realized this is not the way to go so i punished myself by moving down to NL100. The goal is to build a roll and to move up when i have 25 BI's for the next limit. So far it's going great!
