I won back to back hands with AK (both suited though - it's the AK off that kills me) right before I ended that crappy session.

How bad am I running? Well, I won over $700 a few nights ago. Counting that AND the $200 bonus I cleared tonight, this is officially the first time I've earned a reload bonus and had a lower bankroll than when I started.

How many hand will i need to play to get my 200 from up?

jacks are my hand from hell. I could hit four-of-a-kind on the flop, and lose to the royal. I swear I have not profited one penny from those little bastards, and I do not overplay them. I may have when I started playing poker, but I play them very cautiously.
