The answer to losing money...

When you are losing money playing poker - just start playing higher limits.

Believe me.

It works for blackjack, too - you start losing, start betting higher.

This was one of the all time funnest hands to play.



Maybe I should've bet more on the river....not often you have the best possible hand on the flop, turn, and river, and get called all the way:
