I can believe that....
I don't think that A-K is such a great hand in "limit"
Put it into a "no-limit" game and the value goes up exponentially.

Anybody know why this is?
I have a theory.

It's too easy to crack in limit. Even when you hit a flop, it's too hard to protect...

Default Finally...
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.
