Mediocre session tonight ... just a bit better than break-even. TW - per your advice, I think I'm gonna be stuck at 1/2 for a loooong time.... :-S It's OK, because you're absolutely right, I don't want to jump up too quickly. Especially if I'm just having a short-term rush and it's just a fluke.

Anyway - so 1/2 @ UB - I obviously took this one too far. Where should I have slowed down? What should I be looking for so that I can avoid this situation the next time it comes up?

I check the river and hope it gets checked down. Too many people are calling on that board not to have the flush or at least trips.
