best day ever (brag)

[admiralfluff]

over 400 BB in under 2000 hands. Makes the -220BB swing at the mid-end of October dissolve from my mind.

[stillbr]

is this a joke? or a typo?

ahhh no way.

Ok ... if this is a place to brag... i have been lurking for a while, and debating whether to move up from .5/1 to 1/2 at party. I was concerned that the skill levels would swamp me quickly as i am still learning what works best for me at this game. I sit down at a table that is very loose (vp$ .4) and passive. Here is the second hand I got:

I figured a slowplay was called for, but never could have hoped for this one!

Deposited $50 in prima this morning, ran it up to $4k, sat down with the minimum at $200-400nl HU and just started catching cards.

Now that is a funky day !!!! F**K ME !

Just imagine how much more you would have made if you had tried clicking the RAISE button somewhere before the river.

Knowing how it turned out, yes I could have raised. However, knowing that the table was passive when I sat down, I was concerned that I would scare folks away. Flopping quads, I thought my EV only would increase as the others made nice second/third best hands, rather than get scared away by me showing aggression.

That said, i think i should have raised on the turn.

like i said before ... i am still new and learning.

so you are coming to vegas now, right?

So if I've read these posts correctly he turned $50 into over $150K in a Day? Wow....just Wow.

[stillbr]

yes--i have done this multiple times aswell

$50.00 into $150,000.00. In one day. Multiple times.

I'm too new here to question much of what any established poster says, but am I crazy to find this just plain amazing if true? And multiple times...a 3000X initial buy-in return in one day?

the game you could buy into is probably 50NL or like 1/2limit. so playing 10000 hands, winning every one, and getting 30bbs each hand. thats chill
