Sorry that I have not been around to post more, but my work load has increased dramatically and unfortunately poker has taken a back seat for the time being. I have been meaning to get on here and post more, but every time I get a chance something always seems to come up.
Well anyhow today was the 1st time in almost 2 months that I have played a cash game. I almost feel like I forgot how to play, I was playin so LAG for the longest, but at the same time it pretty much helped me win the SNG since the table was full of some really really tight players for a $1 SNG.
Anyhow here's an awesome hand that I just couldnt lay down.
