Default I just won a HUGE pot on a great play

This is at pokerrooms 0.25 cent NL HE tables, head's up...

I have two red aces, american airlines, pocket rockets, ACES BABY!!

So the guy (possibly a donkey or a fish or some other animal) raises me, I reraise, he comes right back over the top for almost $2 more, I think for like 8 seconds, then I see the timer is running down, in an epifinal (speeling?) moment of poker genius I reraise, ALL IN!!!! The sucker calls mee with AA, one is a spade and one is a club. The board comess alot of red stuffs and now theres like 15$$ in my account!!!!

BTW (by the way), anyone have any advice for turning pro?

I would not call that a great play. You both had Aces and you got lucky off the flop and hit a flush.

I heard about a party for upcoming pros, its a dress like your favorite character from shade/tilt, Hosted by Tiffany Williamson and Aaron Kanter. At the front door the code word is Bad beats and lucky draws. (wink)

Annie Duke is signing her book too!
