Default Strange brake bleeding experience, uneven results

I used the ABS cycle to bleed my brakes. The Rear Right and Front Left bled as expected, however the Rear Left and Front Right hardly bled any fluid at all.

Also, when I jam on the brakes I can feel the car twist to the right.

Thoughts?

Default Actually I use a vacuum pump to pull through the calipers before running the ABS pump to make sure..

that I have no air in the ABS unit.
