It's like people say "I'm in the middle of a hot streak right now" - they have no way of knowing if in fact they're at the very end of the hot streak. Luck (sorry poker peeps, variance) has now way of interacting with what's gone before,
Can't see any reason to do so in sngs though.
Just got back from the posh do I attended - ooh, way too posh for me - but I met some proper famous peeps, including Frankie Dettori, Claire Balding, Sir Peter O'Sullivan, Martin Pipe, Lord Grimthorpe, Lady Astor, Lady Oakley, Tom Segal, Graham Bradley, & others too many to mention. I must pass on thanks to Russ Wiseman & Lord Grumpy for the invite. Bumped into Sean Boyce, too, he had an interesting Table & Seat Draw, as he was on the same table as John McCririck. John, it would seem by his mode of dress, is currently appearing in Panto.
Got the Show tonight, so a bit busy, but will do yesterday's Update later, or in the morning, & try to catch up on replies, too.
Run well at the Tables tonight, I'll be back tomorrow.
Might try & play the £2.20 @ 2.20pm NLH Freezeout tomorrow afternoon, to help Rainman out, who asked me earlier this week, & I promised I'd try & play it.

What a weird set of results.
Did great in the £11ers, won 9 from 13, happy days, but look at those £5.50's - played TEN, lost NINE!
I never even realised that until I totted up the days results.
I was conscious that I was weighting my attention & focus on the £11 ones, & that I was playing a bit "faster" in the £5.50's, but the extent of the damage, & loss, really surprised me.
Big FAIL for that, for me to make a profit here I need to give max attention to every single game, as my margin of profit is very small.
Will send myself a memo, & give myself a good slap round the chops, that is just so bad.
No play today, obviously, but hope to put in two good sessions on Friday & Saturday, & that will be it for November. Am on 3,570 Reward Points, so I'm going to try & get to 4,000, which would be a £60 bonus to the 'roll.
No play Sunday, as I'm working again, but Monday sees DOUBLE REWARD POINTS all week, so I plan to try & knock up a big total next week, especially as my Diary is a buit crammed for December, & so I won't be playing as many nights as I did this month.
Enjoy your evening, I'm off to do my day job.
Good to hear you were happier with your PLO8 game last night. I'm pretty sure, from my own experience, that the game requires full focus, as it is quite complex at times, especially of multi-tabling them, & judging by your Post, you were thissing & thatting.
I've not specifically studied your play, but judging by my Notes on you, & what I can recall, you are generally pretty solid & don't lack for the basics, far from it.
I was monitoring the PLO8 DYM Lobby during last night's Show, & unless I missed them traffic was very low indeed, barely any ran @ the £5.50 & £11 Level.
On a normal night I get to play around 20 or more of these. Where was everyone?
I'll be back on tonight, or that is the plan, but it'd be a shame if the traffic has dried up.
Be weird if the tables are busy again tonight, after being near empty last night. We shall see.
I always look around each of my tvbles to spot the value, but I've never seen anyone who is value yet......
It's amazing, but once one name goes in the Lobby, they generally fill quite quickly.
Anyway, a session planned for later today, & all this evening, & again tomorrow.
Just played my first ever PLO8 MTT
Came 2nd
Well chuffed :-))
Did you enjoy it, though?

Had a shocker, a right shocker!
My Lappie failed mid-session, whilst I was playing 4 DYM's, & I'd pre-regged for 3 others. I eventually got back on, but I'd incurred a bit of serious damage by then.
Could have been a lot worse, too, as I won the last three I playerd for a £25 dent in the losses. Yikes.
Lost £2.20 in the afternoon £2.20 @ 2.20, too, though it was well worth it for the banter.
Anyway, nobody wants to read moans & groans, suffice to say the wheels came off a bit.
Had some fun with a keyboard warrior, though, who mocked EVERY player on the table, if he won a hand "lol @ the bad call you fish", & when he lost "lol, you are so lucky".
He had over 5,000 chips (there are only 12k in play!) with 6 players left, but he somehow managed to bust out first. I was plum last with 900 chips, but I got lucky with nice cards, he never folded any hand, & he doubled me up twice, & then exited to me when I found really good two way Aces & they held.
At which point, he chased me around on my other Tables (he was out by now, of course....) he called me something I've never been called before, definitely original. I've been called a few things, lol, but I loved the originality.
U r a putz, tekayy, a rite putz
Putz! Love it.
Sort it out, putz.
Big session planned today, want to get as near to 4,000 Reward Points (£60) as possible. Hopefully, not lose as much as I did yesterday, too......
Best regards,
putz
Just so you know what it is
I knew what it meant, but it's not a word I'd seen before on an online poker site, ever. Love a bit of originality. Quite flattered, actually, much more classy than "donk", fish", idiot" & the like.
When Julie posted previously about the J word, that was spelt differently to my version. We must differentiate between "jobby" & "jobbie". Very different things. Oh yes.
Plays a lot different to the DYM's
Lots of limping at high blind levels , so of course i potted it each time! :-)
Just like to say thanks for your advice on this thread, really helped me play better.
