So, I started off my first session of October about as you would expect... JJ overpair loses to rivered 2 outer (88), AA overpair loses to 99 on 973 flop - you know, the usual.
Anyhoo, fortunately, this guy came along and saved my session.
Here was our first "big" hand together, which gave me all of the read I needed to know how to play Hand #2 (don't mind my retarded FTS misclicking that kept me from going all in):

He went well into his time bank and I was afraid he was gong to fold a King:
HERO says: k no good
HERO says: TT way no good
MP calls $177 and is all in
MP shows K

HERO wins $784 with four of a kind Queens
