Pokerist: I am constrained to quote Yogi Berra.."it's like deja vu all over again"..2$/1$ blinds table..normal speed..set for nine players..a few hands here and there with three or four players with the comings and goings of other players but most hands were with seven to nine players at the table..first 35 minutes or so were dominated by a kamikaze..who after a while..once he hit a hot streak..then switch gears as it were and would just check/call the big blind..and then push the pot if he hit the flop...left with over a K in winnings..for the most part stayed out of the way..only went all-in thrice..busted out once..and got a small piece of another pot..but finally won a good pot when I went all-in to protect a pair of Kings with a Queen kicker..got lucky..and for the rest of the session except for the occasional out-bust by a player splashing the pot pre-flop with a pocket singleton Ace/pair/paint or suited connectors..turned into a friendly game where you could see most flops for a check/call of the big blind or a min-raise..won some pots..but never made any thing better than a 2-pair..the hour struck and I decided to play to the button..ergo..<{stats}>..66 minutes played..49 hands played..a snail's pace..80.8 seconds/hand..left with an extra 132$ I hadn't brung with me from the table & 6,500$ from competed "quest"..no change still 5th level.."Current Bank" now stands@426,750$ & "Total Hands" now stands@692....[[note]: I have been getting friend request from peeps..but unless it's from someone I'm at table with have decided not to accept]..../....
