    Aces held up!!!!!!!

    I am going to cherish this moment while I can (may be short lived).....but I was dealt Aces in the first hand of the 50/50 and got 2 callers in to my re-raise to 420. Flop came Q83, first to act pushes, next guy pushes...I think.....I KNOW that one of these guys has Ace Queen...I can just feel it...but what does the other guy have??? I am suspecting Kings, meaning I'm still ahead..... I go with my gut and call......

    Turns out Donko #2 had effing 69 (lol my favorite hand) of spades and there were 2 spades on the board....uh oh........I now have to sweat bullets over 2 cards. And guy #1 DID have Ace Queen, just like I suspected.

    So I dodge a spade and triple up with Aces in the first hand. It was a miracle LOL! So now I get to stay tuned for my downfall......

    Also unsure why it won't let me post a full screen shot....says it's too big for the forum requirements, but I do it all the time....anyway...

    I didn't fare so well with my aces tonight. Decided to try one of these big ones that all you pros play, and finally picked up some aces after weeding through 1,300 players. He raised pre-flop, I re-raised all-in and he called. After the turn, I was 95% and just starting to exhale...
