Firstly I don"t want this to be a hard luck story, the 2nd hand speaks for itself anyway. Prayed the other player would think I was tilting
. Always trying to improve my game so keen to hear advice/tips/criticism. There i was cruising along from 1500 chips on Betfair to about 3.2k at level 4. The players on left and right had been fairly loose but dumped a few hands to re-raises.....then i ran into these 2 hands. First hand I"m particularly interested to know your views, especially the stack/pot sizes, position etc etc.
Cheers, Grant
