Grats Froggy,

Just out of curiosity, whats your win rate on the $25 / $50's?

Never seen someone with so many hands logged.

In one of my first 250 hands after my first deposit, I flopped the high end of a straight flush. Haven't seen one since.

The last two times I went to A.C., I played for only 2-3 hours both times and say a straight flush at my table (one was a royal flush). And I had only played in a casino one other time before that. Pretty incedible.

Congrats on our straight flush!

Final Pot: $290
Main Pot: $271, between MrFroggyX and UTG+2. > Pot won by MrFroggyX ($271).
Pot 2: $19, returned to UTG+2.

Results in white below:
MrFroggyX shows 6c 8c (straight flush, eight high).
UTG+2 shows 2c Ac (flush, ace high).
Outcome: MrFroggyX wins $271. UTG+2 wins $19.
SB told the table that he had the K high flush..



*Sorry if it seems like am bragging but this is very special for me.. The first straight flush and also the biggest pot I have ever won!! Now I'm off to the tables.. poker starts to get fun again!! *

One concern:

If $271 is the biggest pot you've won after 47,000 hands on NL $25 and 28,000 hands on NL $50, then one must question if you're quitting these games too early if you're up or holing the money at some point and starting fresh again. If you're running well and playing your big stacks, you should have won many pots over $271 at this point in NL, especially at Party NL $50.

You have completely right!!
I play way to small sessions!! Not that I'm afraid off playing a big stack. Quite the opposite. But I'm very lazy!! And I get bored to easy.. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

My current session average is "AVG. HOURS: 1.67".. It's way to small!! That is definitely a big leak in my poker game.

But guess what? Today I played the longest session I have ever played.. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] A total of "Hours: 5.98" lol
And it was only because I read your answer to my post.. Thank you!! Even if it was a losing session. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

But I have won 3 bigger pots now on the NL$100 level. And it's only because I had big stacks on my tables.

The biggest is $222.65 in pure profit(over $440 in the pot).. Very nice.. I will try to train me to play longer sessions instead off many short. Well, we will see how it goes... Hopeful it will increase my winrate.. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
