Tilt - no thanks!

Crytologic did it's best to tilt me tonight :)

Played a 1 hr session of 100 hands on the $100 NL tables (2-tabling)

Twice in 15 minutes it threw me a monster (AA and KK). I didn't try to be clever.
Raised both with standard raises.
Isolated a caller.
Flop non-scary but I still bet out 2/3 of it.
Of course both times they called, the turn paired the board (once with 6, once with Q) and they hit trips and I went down in flames (they had called with A6s and QTo btw).

The next biggest hand I hit was TT - raised that and lost that one too.

No type of other pocket pair at all and not even an AK.

But I am too in the zone now to fall for tilt -I buckled down, saw lots of cheap flops (tables were passive and my Vp$iP was 33% - almost all marginal stuff obviously), outplayed many many muppets and ended up $42 (23BB/100)

Another 49 hands past the flop and I pick up my $50 bonus for 300 hands played too...

On crypto that surely is an achievement. You can't compare it to the whole buy-inn swings at the table you play kenny. Crypto swings are really low.

really?? hmm...interesting. lower then prima??? I thought the swings on prima were the lowest possible. I've never played on Crypto though.

I built most of my bankroll on prima just because I thought the swings were low, so I could start the 100's with 10 buyins instead of 20. (which did work btw.)
