Hello friends,
Unfortunately I find it necessary to take a 2 week break from poker to clear my mind and focus on some other aspects of my life. After this I look forward to coming back better than ever.

Showdown with ahh snap
This was one of the more interesting hands I've had in 25/50. The original raiser was a very active player so I thought he was full of shit. Because of this, I thought it was the perfect time for a squeeze. I wasn't expecting ahh snap to wake up with a hand, however.

Serves him right for making a weak call with 88 from such a position.

Return to Prominence
Hello fans and admirers--
I have been playing poker for a little less than 2 years. After getting off to a good start with online poker, I hit a bad stretch where many people (myself included) doubted that I could become a successful poker player. Since the year began however, I have been on a meteoric run. Starting off with the last $500 I had in the bank, I have built my bankroll all the way up over 10k. And I have no intention of stopping here. My goal is to become one of the best high limit cashgame players in the world. The purpose of this blog is to chronicle my return to prominence by looking at hand histories which not only prove entertaining but also educational. I will give my opinions on the regulars at the limits I play which range from 3/6 to 25/50 and share some funny stories. Let's get started...
