Tenliness is next to quadliness

This is probably the fourth or fifth time I've used this blog post title; I never miss a chance :-) I had two memorable hands last night, which anyone would have been able to play in their sleep. On the first one, I was dealt a pair of tens, and flopped quads (hence, the title of the post). On the second one, I was dealt two diamonds, and flopped a flush. Thanks to those lucky hands, and to some skill as well, I got under the lights again. That never gets old!
