Today I experience what it was like to run like Yoda.

So i'm playing in a pub little 5 dollar game..already off to a fast start.

Blinds 2/4.

Cutoff raises to 10 and I call as does UTG.

Flop King, 8, King

I check (I know.. I know but a good ending) other guy checks, cutoff bets 12.. I think then raise to 24.. utg folds and cutoff goes all in for um.. alot more (But i had him covered) I call.. he has pocket 7s.

Turn is the last king... yay. (First quads ive gotten live)

Couple hands later pocket Jacks... zero overcards on the board and won another huge pot of 80+

Then came the hand where I really put my skill to the test.

Pocket Jacks I make it 25... dude to my right pushes for another 40 or so on top.. I call and he shows me queens.

Flop Jack, 5 , Jack.

It was sweet.

Won both games..
So far i'm a winning player in 2012

gta is referring to you not telling us your hand in the first one. But we can all assume it involved a King lol

Oh wow.. today I ran like a storm trooper.

wow it was bad.. Didn't make the cash in any of the games (2 or 3 bubbles though) wasn't getting any.

made one ass end of a straight that I couldn't bet with as just an ace killed me completely... had to check and win a small pot.

I guess final hand sums it up.

6 7 of D.

Flop Jack, 7, 2 rainbow

Villain bets 12.. I go all in for my last 33 or so.

He eventually calls with Queen 9.

Turn is a King, River is a 10.. bah
Down 25.
