Two Poker Hands on Full Tilt

By Ed Brayton

Playing poker on Full Tilt last night and these two hands happen back to back while playing $1/$2 no limit hold em with a .30 ante. I'd been playing for a while and was down about $100 from my original $400 buy in when these hands happened.

First hand I've got A 8 of clubs on the button. There's a raise to $10 and 3 callers to me. I just call, hoping to hit a good flop in late position. Sure enough, the flop comes with three clubs so I've got the nut flush. It's checked around to me and I check, hoping to get someone to bet into me on the turn. The board pairs jacks on the turn and a player in early position bets $20, about half the pot.
