Im sure your not looking for comments on your play here..... but do you always limp with J10s UTG or was this a particularily passive table? If it wasnt I think you got lucky to not be raised here PF.

Congrats on the Royal, I have yet to get one I have had a ton of st8 flushes but no royals [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Congratulations. It's a shame short-stack bet so hard and scared out MP3.

I hit a royal flush about a month ago in Party. Similarly, someone put me all-in [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] with a less than premium hand. It was the first hand of the tournament, so I did double-up, at least.
