Just incredible really, i'm speechless! Poker is a funny game... haha.
I went back to playing 10nl for a little bit since 4nl tables were either empty of full for a while lol. I also played speed hold'em for about 15 minutes and that is where i got the biggest profit.
Session summary:
40 mins, 9 tables, 238 hands, profits of £6.87, £5.40, £1.40, 5p, 2p, $22.33 (£15.41), £1.05 and 2 losses of £5.19 and £1.20. Total profit for the session was: £25.81

A few other good hands as well, i flopped a full house twice with jack 3 and 5,3 respectively in the big blind, won a decent sized pot both times lol. Flopped a full house with pocket 2s as well, only got one street of value but the way i was running was unbelievably good, i'm going out to buy a lottery ticket now!!
That's me done for tonight, my bankroll currently stands at £405.11

Other than that, was pretty boring lol, didn't live up to last night
Probably wont do a session tonight since i have that tourny, just depends how well i do in it
Didn't fare too well in the freeroll tournament, got it all in with kings v ace-king in the first blind level and he flopped trip aces so i thought i might as well do another cash session.
Session summary:
1 hour, 5 tables, 203 hands, profits of £1.94, £2.07 and 21p. 2 losses of £4.51 and 51p. Total loss for the session was a measly 80p lol.
Got into a few tricky spots, don't know if i played the hands well or not so i am going to post them in the clinic for advice, but other than that it was just a session where I was card dead and every time I did get a hand, i raised and just won the blinds.
Its only 11pm right now, i might do another session later on if i feel like it since I will be up late tonight anyway lol.
Started playing online again last week after a break, after losing all my profits before on blackjack, i decided to stick £60 in my account (i won it most of that on a scratchcard lol), managed to work my way up to £150, then blackjack took over again, but somehow i managed to keep doubling up from £7.50 to £200, won another £30 playing poker and then yet again blackjack took over, was down to £50, and managed to get lucky again to get it back up to £250.
I know blackjack is probably going to take over again and i can't keep on getting lucky every time so i managed to make myself withdraw £150 to leave myself with £100 to play with on the site, if i lose it, i lose it and i'm self excluding myself for a year or so until i get my addiction under control lol.
Only going to play $2/5nl speed hold'em this time (£100 is about 30BIs), its a lot more fun that multi-tabling 4 4nl tables at once, and i'm in this for the fun mainly rather than the money since i should really be broke, so the money i have left is a bonus.
Lets see what happens. Probably this time next week i will have lost the £100, but you never know :P
Played speed hold'em for about 2 hours, 450ish hands, didn't really get going was card dead for ages, but i did pick up a nice pot with a straight flush:

So i ended the session -£1 and what do i do? I say to myself 'i'll play blackjack for one time to get that pound back and get myself back to £100'... what am i like? Yes, i really am that bad lol.
So i put £1 on, i lose. Then £2, then £5, then £10, £20 and i lose. I'm left with £60 and put it all on the next one and guess what? Blackjack! Up to £150 just like that haha.
So overall im up £50 for this session, got blackjack to thank for that again though. There is no point in me asking for my casino games to be disabled as i have done that numerous times and each time i've asked for them to be enabled again lol, that is what addiction does to you. But hey, its only money and it's money i'm not using for anything else so wouldn't be the end of the world if i lost more lol.
I'll keep trying to fight it though, try and concentrate solely on poker and not use blackjack to chase losses, wish me luck!
Hand history thing isn't loading so can't post the best hands up, but they were mostly flopped sets that got paid and the biggest pot i won was with AQ v KK and AJ, got the flush with my ace of hearts.
Also 3 hands in a row i got dealt AA, AA and KK , shame when i raised it up everyone folded lol
Current bankroll is £114.18 (I withdrew the £50 i won last night from blackjack)
Got a VIP deepstack freeroll tournament in 20 mins, should be fun. Last week i min cashed, lets see if i can do one better tonight!
I do read your up-dates mate,but find it difficult keeping up with it all.as you are playing blackjack also.
might be an idea keeping poker and bj results separate.
I know you play at titan but no plans to get set up and play at sky in the future?
gl building your b/roll.
dev
Went out with A8 of clubs v KQs, flop came 856 with 2 clubs, turn is another 6 and the river the queen of spades, gutted
Would have had 400,000 chips if i never got rivered, could have went on to win a bit more money but oh well lol.
Skeg.
Some quality posts recently, the "i won my bankroll on a scratchcard" bit was my favourite.
Not posting about poker, but I've always wondered about where the house edge is in blackjack?
Is it just because the dealer gets to go 2nd? But then the dealer can't stick on lower than 16? so how does he always win long term?
Good luck with the poker!
And with the blackjack, i have no idea if i am honest lol. I've self excluded myself from the casino section again anyway, lets see if i can keep it that way haha, for anyone who wants to try blackjack, take my advice and don't because it is bloody addictive, and you will always think its a good way to chase small losses like i have done.
Might as well do another cash session the now, i'm wide awake. Will post results later
What r ur tips for actually playing blackjack? do u have an optimal strategy?
I think I saw a chart once showing what to do in every situation, does that make sense?
If you've got a 10 and a 3 do u stick or twist? How many hands is it best to play at once?
Can't you exclude permanantly? you can on here . . . . . . . . .
I remember once i stuck at 15 with K5, this was for £150, the dealer had a 2, and he went bust lol.
I can't exclude myself permantely, i should be able to but they allow you to enable your casino games again if i just ask them to lol.
Was running unbelievably well, i thought i was due to win a flip or two after losing that brutal one in the freeroll tourny earlier lol, i ended up winning every single flip when it all went in pre against short stacks, 10s v AQ, JJ v AK, AK v QQ, AQ v 77, 22 v K10, i could go on and on lol.
I like speed poker a lot, prefer it to multi-tabling but the one thing i don't like about it is the amount of short stacks they're are. I sit down with the full buy in of $5 at the 2/5nl table, and there are so many people who have sat down with $1-$2, every time i raise pre to 15c, and some-one shoves i normally feel as if i'm priced in to call.
Like that 22 v K10 hand for example, i raised to 15c, the guy shoves for something like 65c and i felt i had to call and hope it was a flip, which it was haha.
Last hand of the session was the only letdown, i had KK bvb, i raise, he shoves for $1.50 and i call, he has AK and spikes an ace lol, apart from that it went brilliantly.
Overall profit was $5 (£3.20ish)
Got out of it with a loss of 1c though (bloody american money, thats not even a penny is it? haha)
No real hands to post up, i had my KK run into AA and lost set over set, but it was only for 50p at least haha.
Current bankroll is now at £121.10.
Didn't get off to a very good start, lost a couple of quid but came back strongly, playing solidly managed to grind my way back and ended up the session +£4.
I did have a couple of decent hands to post but i can't find them anywhere lol. One of them was where i doubled up with pocket 3s v pocket 10s, flopped a set and got it all in on the flop. Another one when i opened 63s from the cut-off, bb calls and i turn a flush vs his 2pr, got it all in on the river, glad he didn't have a higher flush anyway haha. I did have one hand where i wasn't sure i played correctly, so i will look for it and post it in the clinic.
I will probably do another session later on, doubt i will get to sleep until late tonight, i slept for 15 hours straight today, thats what happens when i stay up all night the previous day haha
Also got a nice little weekly c4p bonus of £7 or so, so my bankroll is now at £132.26
And yeah i have done that before, i remember one day i lost about £20 with bad beats and everything, was tilting badly so i went onto a 0.50/1 table, and won £50 after a few hands haha. But i hope i can restrain myself from doing that again, it's a lot of money to lose lol. I was ******* myself every hand i played in since i could've lost it all.
Within the first few minutes, i get KK, get it all in preflop v AA and lose, one BI down already, then i keep on getting pocket pairs and i keep on flopping sets (about 5 times in a row i flopped a set, no joke and over 10 times in total) and each and every time i bet everyone folds aaaaah so frustrating haha.
Flopped a flush and straights a few times as well, same story with that lol.
Somehow i managed to claw my way back, won a nice sized pot with AK v AQ on a QKKQx board, ended the session -£1.98.
I will take that considering how frustrating it was haha, should have bloody won £50 or so with the monsters i had
Bankroll is now at £130.28
On another note, i won tonight at the pub and got my very first live royal flush in diamonds (had KJd, board came out Ad10dxxQd) was really nice haha.
Think i was just over a £2 for today, my bankroll is now at £132.98.
Played well last night, 1000+ hands, got a profit of over £25, can't remember the hands i won the most on to be honest lol, i remember getting it all in 3ways with AA v KK and AK, my AA holds to take down a big pot, that was nice.
Current bankroll is now at £160.03

Was absolutely ******* myself when i overbet the river for $50, i was just praying he would fold hahaha. It is was the 4nl table it would have been snapped of by 10x or even 8x lol.
But it was exciting, i'll give it that
Current bankroll is now at £169.27, won't be too long before its at 0 again though if i keep this up!! Have to try and control myself and not keep chasing losses lol.
Got quads a couple of times, was nice haha. Flopped a set with pocket 2s every time i got them, i love that hand now.
Was just running really good, some guy shoved all in pre utg for about $8, i snap him off with AA and they hold against his 10s, no idea why he just shoved pre lol, but i'm not complaining.
Managed to get it all in pre with AA again in another big pot, was up against AK and A6s, it's just too easy sometimes.
I would post the hands, but to be perfectly honest i can't be ***** haha. Titan poker really needs to get a hand history converter for it lol.
Current bankroll is now at £180.91.

Wish there was some way i can exclude myself from playing at those limits haha, just to make sure i stick at the lower limits lol. But hey ho, i'm not complaining, my bankroll is now at £236.24.
Might as well keep doing this until i get my gambling problem under full control, wasn't planning on moving up to 10nl anyway since i like it at 4nl (or 5nl for the speed games) and i'm comfortable there.
I think i will post up my total profit as well as my balance as it would just be confusing to keep on saying what my balance is lol.
So i withdrew £136.50 the first time, and then £50, and now £117, so my total profit since i started this again is £304.50, but of course that isn't my total profit overall since i lost my entire bankroll last time around plus an extra £120 lol.
But hey, i should really have nothing to play with at all, so i'll take it, can't complain
Will do a session later, decided to stick on doing 400 hands a session, 200 on each speed table and then stop no matter how good or bad i'm running, that might stop me from playing more than i intended haha.
Went rather well, up £3.84 overall. My best hand was a straight flush with 10,8h, flopped an open ended straight flush draw, and the Qh on the turn got me there haha. Didn't win that much but it was a nice hand!

First hand, i had the second nut flush on the river but i just felt it was too much to call incase he had the ace lol, don't know why he would jam the river with the ace there though, but i was a coward and folded :P
Hand 2, no reads or anything, but i flat the 3bet and flop top pair, he c-bets and i call to evaluate the turn, 3rd spade on board and anything under a normal 3betting range pre, AA, KK, QQ and JJ and of course any random flush are all crushing us so i folded, maybe i should have 4bet pre but i was readless.
That's me done for tonight
But i actually feel rather good now, i managed to stop, close all the tables and log out before doing something stupid to try and get my money back, i've finally accepted a loss can't believe it haha.
Current bankroll is £96.90, don't think i'll play again tonight i'm on tilt, can't say that often about me lol.
