But yesterday I moved up to the NL$100 tables and what do you think happens!? Finally I get my first straight flush!! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] And it pays off big!! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Congrats. I've only played 15,000 hands so far... so another 60,000 to go for me I guess. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I came soooo close this weekend. The results worked out just as well. Get dealt K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] two off the button. Everyone folds to me. I made a modest raise for 3x the BB. Small blind reraises to a total of 5x the BB. I call.

Flop comes A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Small blind bets the pot, I call.

Turn is a blank. Small blind bets the pot again, I call.

River is another blank. Small blind goes all in. All told, small blind is in for for a total of 70x the BB. I call.

Win with nut flush against.... trip aces. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I've been playing poker for 7 months and have gotten 3 Royal flushes... I suppose that's a bit above average? =)

Cool! Then it's only about 25 months or about 2 years before I will get that one..! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] (I get in about 20,000-30,000 hands per month)

28K hands logged into Poker Tracker. About 20K not logged. No str8 flushes yet. It seems I am getting closer to it.
