Dunno about the queens...

...but I think the Jack was high. Hilton Sisters turned in to quad queens in a SNG earlier this week. I got my money in the middle with QQ versus AKs so it was nice to see the slight edge decided very heavily in my favor. In my defense, I was confident based on previous betting patterns that this guy would have bet the same with a number of weak hands, including middle pairs. Anyways, hand history posted as Comment #1.

Yeah, that's right. SNGs again. Taking recent advice from Human Head, i've elected to step back in to SNG form. I'm slightly above 40% lifetime ITM for 2-table $10+1 SNGs with a 200% ROI so I consider those my ATM. After getting beaten up pretty badly at the $50 NL tables last week, i'm going to roll with just my tournament and SNG games for the time being. Probably just the nightly $15+1 MTT as well as $10+1 and $20+2 2-table SNGs, for the next week or so. I intend to grind back out some of the recent losses via the ATM, and then i'll give the NL tables another shot.

One more week of beatings @ $50NL like I took last week, and I'll be stepping back down to the $25NL tables.

Update: i'm sitting about 50% ITM for SNGs played in the last two days including two first place finishes. Definately a good result, and helping to re-boost the confidence. However, the highlight of the week so far has been my roommate dropping the Krablar complete with "crab dancing" in chat... check out Comment #2 for more.
