Took my first real shots at nl25 today. I opened up 6 tables with my bank roll at around $405. My first big hand came when i got queens in early position. After a min raise to 50c i decided to pop it up to $2.20. The player next to me, who i had already established was a nutcase lag reraises me instantly to $8. It folds around and am forced to make a tough decision. In the end i decide to shove, given the player's previous history and the fact that he had only $12 left. He snap calls andshows AKss and we are flipping:

the flop brings a very handy 8h Qd Kd and i eventually take down the $44.90 pot. The very next handi get aces. I make it $1 and surprisingly get 4 callers. Flop brings Ks 10s 6d. One of the original limpers fires a very strong $4 and i tank. At this stage i really put him on something like Ak, kq, kj, perhaps k10, or maybe a set (although even given the flush draw these players looooove check raising their sets). I decide to throw in a strange $9 reraise. His response is to instantly shove his remaining stack. This opponent actually had a large stack and had been playing reasonably so i really wasn't sure what to do here. I eventually decide, given his preflop play and flop aggression, that he probably has a pair of kings. I shove and am called.
He flips over QJss giving him the royal flush up and down draw. Once again i am basically flipping (im a 54% favourite). turn brings another K and the river brings a glorious A, giving him the straight but my the boat! ship it!
