KTs - valued in, great turn though
I didn't make any significant money with sets, and played nearly all of my low pockets looking for opportunities to stay TPTK or less.
I got some good guidance from a friend who i talked to on skype while playing. This really helped my play, and he would give his opinions of hands and help me think it out.
I'm trying to learn to be a lot more calm and make good decisions and think it thru. Need to avoid money going in marginal positions. I laid down JJ, QQ PF after some consideration. Previously had problems laying down QQ.. but its good to see this development.
Hopefully i can keep winning.
