My first Royal Flush...

...and bankroll update.

I've really been trying to stick with Zinn0's plan for bankroll management, I know a lot of you guys say this, but he was the first to point it out to me.

Have 30 buy-ins to play at a certain level, if I drop down to 20 buy-ins drop back down.

So I know, starting out with $50 and playing the $5 sng's is stretching it, but that's what I did...anyway, worked it up to $300 after many months, and moved up to the $10 sng's, been playing them for about 3 months, and this week past the $600 mark, moved up the to $20 sngs.

Finished 6th in the first one, and 2nd in the second one...so, I netted $10 bucks (but still moving foward).

Anyway, down to 3 players, I'm in the BB with KK and hit the Royal Flush on the Turn...funny thing is the chip leader raises, I re-raise he types in...

"Royal?", I typed in "yep" and then the guy on the button goes all-in! And ANY club would have his A high str8 beat! I guess he thought I was just BSing him. It was great! Just wanted to share it with you guys.

I've got a screenshot of it, but I don't know how to insert a picture into this message. Can someone explaine to me how to do that?
