Easy Money

It always sucks when you go on a run of cards and end up with nothing to show for it. Luckily for me, this was NOT one of those times. Instead, this is how I felted the same dude not once, not twice, but THREE times within ten minutes. Suffice it to say, I coded him with the special "Uber-Donk" color with some choice notes.

Also pretty sick is that I had another AK somewhere in there but just played it cautiously from the SB & check-folded a bad flop.

Finished the night just over 3-buyins, my best session yet at $.50\$1. With that, I've officially recouped the losses I spewed at the $1\$2 level, and for the time being, I'm out of the red for NL cash.
