I haven't posted in a week because I had some really horrible losing sessions at 2/4 and I was pretty upset about it. I think I need to stay at 1/2 until I get a very nice bankroll going, probably $600 would be ideal.

In those sessions there were two occasions where I started with a pair of aces/kings and my opponent outdrew me to a better two pair of the same type (i.e. AA33 vs. AA66).

Anyway I played a few hours today and managed to win ~$110 at 1/2 with some nice pots, hit a flush on 5th street in one hand and managed to get a raise in on 5th with two callers, and again on 6th street with two callers ... drr, why would I raise with 3 suited on 5th street?

This one was interesting. I have A3A on 3rd, one ace is dead, player with king in front of me raises, I re-raise, bring-in calls, king 3-bets and we both call. Then on 4th and 5th street the other two kings come to me and the bring-in ... essentially telling me I have the best hand.
