So last night I was playing some stud hilo again, started off ok got $30 up
then kept missing draws, starting with A23 and not even making a low etc
bit of ups and downs and get down to $70 from my original $150
Was thinking if I can make it back to about $130 I would cut my losses.
So next thing that happens, I have a low in a rather large pot. Looks like one of the other 2 was drawing to a low (which was almost certainly not going to beat mine if he made it) and the other guy was showing cards that looked like a possible straight or a flush. So looking good for half the pot.
So come the showdown, I have just made 666 on 7th street, though again it looks like thats not good enough for the high. Cards all turn over and over $100 comes over to me.
So that was rather nice, very next hand I am also drawing to a good low and iirc I won that high as well with 2 pair. Another big pot comes my way.
In the space of 2 hands I went from $70 to $244!
What with it then being 1am thought it was a good time to take the money and catch some sleep.
Patience is a virture and you have to love catching the positive side of varience ;]
