Well ... I'm hooked and I love the varience. I played 9 hours in a 1-2-5-5 game and really enjoyed it. I stuck to what I thought were good hands. Four cards 10 through an Ace and low premium hands. I was only up 50.00 at the end of the day but I did get counterfitted alot, which helped me learn the importance of backup low cards. I did scoop a couple pots and even forced myself to raise in certin situations. I enjoyed the fact that by playing proper cards pre-flop I was able to save myself the huge swings that I had in Hold 'Em. Plus it seemed to me that if you were able to even read your hand you were ahead of most of the pack already. I know I have a TON to learn but this has really got me excited again and ready to learn all I can about this game. Sorry you had to read this crap.
