Quick update...

Another prifitable evening winning $161.25 over 666 hands. Bankroll now sits at $5877.25


Looking back on this hand, this is not my best play, but I felt as though the player was trying to steal the pot away...I did have the best hand but he has a huge drawing especially against my 99.
I did put him to a decision which could have easily been against JJ+ which he would be solid underdog in every situation. He winds up calling as a 55-45 favorite, but my hand held up which happens when you are running well.
