Got a free $25 put into my Empire account to get me to play there again. So I ran it up to about $100, then transferred the $75 over to Party. Now grinding my way up from the 10s in an effort to turn the initial $25 into $1k in one week.

Two days in and I am 1/5th of the way there. W00t.

Anyway, I used to play 55s and 109s, so it's been a while since I've played any 800 chippers.

What do you make of these hands?

Is this standard? Seemed like it at the time, but not so sure now:
