why I don't slowplay on PP.

Most people lose bets here. Not the redmanjew. Today I was down about 550 bucks before coming back and ending up slightly up for the day.

Here's a hand that helped me come back... it's kinda fun. and it was the perfect turn card, no doubt.

If I had check raised the flop, I may have lost TNC101 (the AK). Also, i may not have gotten raised on the turn. If I had checked and just called on the flop, I would have most likely gotten 2 bets out of each guy on the turn, instead of three.

Love that turn!!!!!
