Default It's been awhile.................

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.

Full Tilt Poker Game #6316288614: $1 + $0.25 Sit & Go (Turbo) (48060129), Table 1 - 40/80 - No Limit Hold'em - 22:38:15 ET - 2008/05/06

Good Play Mate Nice One The Squeeze Play worked very well you got rid of 2 players and Luckily hit the nuts, you could aford the 900 odd to call but chose the more aggressive option GREAT PLAY I think some one behind you may of had a set so this is why you push.....

Regards

GT

I can not get Red or any other colour up in the edit???? Think it some thing to with My Mac

Just a quick add on, If you not played cash for a while maybe the servers giving you a few hooks, WATCH for it, if you start losing you Bankroll start thinking about taking a profit out of the server!

GT as always you never cease to amaze me with your hand analysis.

With no preflop raise from anyone it was hard to put anyone on AK or AQ, with his all in bet I thought he may have hit a set, and since I was the chip leader I was able to afford the loss if it happened since I had more than 3x what everyone else had.

Im naturally a very agressive player, but with a flop like that (Open ended straight draw, flush draw and straight flush draw) I felt I had to squeez the table. When the cards were turned over I was kinda surprised to see him holding AQs and not raised anything preflop. But it was the right play and although the odds were not that great to hit the straight flush I did and I was ecstatic as hell as well!

I ended up placing 1st in that SnG and I sat out quite a bit of hands once I was at 6000 chips since there was no need to play anything but A's or K's since i had half the chips in play. Funny thing is that the hand I won the SnG with was 38 suited and I flopped a FH against pocket A's.............

Nice pot. Gotta love it when the suited connectors make the stone cold nuts.
