Forgot to post n here, out of all tournaments except the $3.30 which I'm nearly out of. Pretty much broke even as I played a few hyper-turbo S&G's.

Who cashed and how much for?

FAKE EDIT: Doubled up a couple of times and up to 4k now. Still need another double up, though

I had one for $25 in the $5.50 R2AI. With a chance in the other two I'm doing.

Not to shabby.

Out of the $3.30 now. Good day grinding overall, we should make this a thing every couple of months. I think you mentioned Micro Millions earlier, DR? That sounds like a decent day to do it again.

Yeah, a MicroMillions weekend might be quite good if people are up for it.

So, having some awful hands now in cash. Called a shove from a maniac with AQ, he had A4. He flops the monster straight.

On a lighter note, I've got this guy who keeps electing to fold on the river rather than check.

I have been insanely lucky to make $50 tonight. I had one blind SIX TIMES, only to come back each time to go from 260th to finally be eliminated in 51st. :lol:

Been testing Full Tilt and it seems they haven't yet ticked the rungood tickbox in my account settings :x

Dunno if it's just because it's Sunday but the standard of play is terrible.

Maybe just a case of a lot of new players flooding on?

In a cash game, opponent shoved on me when I had AQ pre-flop and raised (He was BB). He had K3. Won that. He repeated the same trick next hand or two and I had AQ again, this time he has QQ. I don't know how to read this strawberry floater. :lol:

Well I guess that after appearing loose and raggy, he played on that image to look loose and raggy and make you think he was shoving light. Resulting in maximum profit.

To be fair, I still don't think you're folding. Unless you'd been playing with him for a while, it seems as though he's just a donk looking to win/lose some quick money.
