Been playing sets of 6 $60 turbos lately. I’m pretty much breakeven(I think I’m down like 1 buyin over my first 100 or so). I played about 40 tonight and lost like $6. I did buy SNGPT today finally because my paypal account finally cleared so I should be able to fix some holes I’m sure I have in my game and be crushing these in no time. Here’s an interesting hand from tonight.

I just called with AQ at first, got some limpers and then a shortstack moved all in and I was to close the action. Instead of just calling I raised it up with no intention of folding to another push and ended up getting my money it with a coinflip and a lot of dead money in the pot. I’m happy with the way I played this one even though I ended up losing the flip.
