If you are button and he BB how you bet he call? O.o you mean he check you bet he call? and if you were playing 1/2 and doubled up that means you had profit near 200$ if I am not wrong? and you end up with 45$? well any profit is good but for 1/2$ that is nothing special, anyway GL to you if you continue playing cash games

Yes I think a profit of $45 in half of hour is very good result, if you do it all the time, we can count like your job, 8 hours per day this is $360 per day then 5 days per week $1800 and then 20 days per month and you get $36000 monthly wage. Wow you are rich guy

I went in with $80, $40 in cash and $40 in reserve it was $40 cap,aye you are right with the check call i don't lie about such things if say i win i win. I ended up with $45 profit for the session i didn't say it was anything special just that it was good for me.

Posted by StheP: I didnt suspect that you lied, just there was something wrong... that explains it... it was cap... anyway good result than keep it up
All good, mind you memory at my age probably starts to go
For half an hour winning 45 dollars is certainly a very good result ... I congratulate you on a good game and luck today was clearly on your side ..... maybe you should play a little more if luck on your side and maybe that would win as much. .. good luck with the game

All you need to do is play every day a half hour with the same profit What more can you ask. Congratulations on your win. Good luck on your next cash game. Maybe now after this win, you will join cash games more often

Gratz for your winning in these cash game and a nice 30 minutes "hourly" rate Nice extra cash for your shopping tour It seems, sometimes it was better to play only 30 minutes with a good motivation as manny hours on tilt

Nice one! There used to be hundreds of thousands of recreational players spewing money at PokerStars. The overall number of players has dropped significantly since the Black Friday. You don't get to play with less-skilled players as often as before.
I wrote a message that maybe it was worthwhile to play further and remembered one night when I played a cache game all night and from $ 20 went up to almost $ 500 .... and then literally in 20 minutes lost everything ... terrible feeling
so i had a look at the cash tables and bought in to the 1st seat i could find,now i must say i don't play a lot of cash games as it's too quick for me
