Ok, so I screwed up today HUGE. I made the single biggest mistake Ive ever made in Poker, and I deserved to loose my whole roll for doing what I did. Let me tell you the story......First off Ive had three days of bad play and coolers at 25NL, second: I have an infection in my tooth and Im on Loratabs and a antibiotic, third my GF told me that its either Poker or Her.

So, I came home after being to the dentist and having lunch with her and decided that it was all or nothing. So what do I do? I sit down at (2) 200 NL table, (1) 100NL table, and (1) 50NL table. It wasnt long untill I had enough to just play three table of 200NL so I did that for a while working my BR up to somewhere around 680, then lost a hand and got down 605. After being at 605 I said what the hey, I want to play a game Ill never get to play how bout some 600NL, so I sat down and played 6 hands of that of which I got very very lucky and flopped a set. I got really nervous playing that game so I went back for a few hands of 200NL eventually getting my BR to 943.50. After hitting that I shut everything down and realized just how lucky I had gotten and that I could use some of this money to pay for my dental work.

Now I know that few players on this board ever admit to playing so far out of there BR, but I feel it is necessary for me to openly confess what I did, and write out that what I did was incredibly dumb. Just to show you guys how much of heater I was on, Im going to post up PT for this session and my biggest winning hands.

Another 200NL luckbox hand. I shouldnt have called the preflop 3 bet, but I did know exactly what hand he had, they guy hadnt 3 bet me in 70 hands, which made outplaying him on the flop fairly simple. I did flop beautiful though.

It just got to the point that everything seemed to easy and I could do no wrong. I mean hell, I have over 25k hands in 25NL and I think Ive flopped like this 2 maybe 3 times. The only reason I was playing so aggressivly is simply cause I thought He could be holding the Ace of Diamonds, and chances are he was, that and the fact I was playing pretty aggressive at this table.

This hand I honestly played like a Huge donkey and caught my 4 outer on the river. It was the 1st and only hand I had been dealt at 400NL. Its funny I was actually physically shaking on the river, took me a second to realize that I had the nuts.
