Not often you flop a set and are worried you're beat. I never bet or raised, and I was still all in by the end.

Note: Wyclef is an EXTREMELY aggressive player. Very much a risk taker, but its very hard to tell when he's bluffing or he has the hand, because he bets basically the same way each time. The other two involved in the hand were new at the table.

About 10 hands later. This guy is definitely on tilt now, and he's been very kind to my bankroll.

I've been grinding it out in SNGs for a week, and I've made $400 through that. In 2 big hands, within a few minutes of each other, at a loose 6 max ring table, I make nearly twice that.

This is why you gotta love NL ring games, even if the downside of the variance drives you mad.
