    Ok, update from my last thread.  I was playing 60p PLO DYM's and treading water.  My roll was varying between £1 and £3 depending on variance and how badly I was playing when last night I had a little bink :).  I regged for the mini freeroll and got a seat in the mini despite my best attempts to get 11th.  There were so many rebuys and addons that top 10 got a seat worth £5.50 and 11th got £14 in cash.  As my roll was £1.51 it was a no brainer, go for 11th!  I tried my hardest and failed gallently.  I raise folded on the bubble twice to leave myself less then a bb and I was in the bb next hand.  I was dealt the awesome 24 off and.................  I got a f*****g walk!  Not what I wanted at all!  I jammed next hand with J2 off and got 2 callers.  Of course I hit my J and won just as someone on the other table bust :(.  Oh well onto the mini.  I was totally card dead for the first few levels which, TBH helped as I wasn't tempted to play anything.  I also had a fun table with flyingdagg and slipwater there to keep me entertained.  I started picking up a few hands here and there and hitting a few draws keeping my stack about the 20bb level  for the second hour and getting close to the bubble.  It paid 55 but I wanted at least top 30 as that would give me over £14 :).  Well, I cashed and kept picking up hands, my bluffs were getting through and when I needed to hit I did, this hand being a prime example

    Anyway, long story short, well shortish I came 3rd for just over £200.  I have taken £100 out as it's my girls birthdays in the next few days and I want to get them something nice which leaves me with a roll of £104.04 so about 50 buy ins for the £2 level of MTT's so, as before, you decide which ones I play  BH, Deepstacks, £1 rebuys, 2p/4p cash or a combination of the MTT's.  it is up to you again.  Choose wisely fellow players and good luck on the tables.

    What's your favourite game?

    I'd definatly go for that!

    If playing mtts, i'd play a good mixture.

    The 7:15 and 7:45 deepstack games, would be a great way to boost your bankroll.
  • edited January 2014

    Very well done chavvy, great story.

    In your spot I'd play whatever I most enjoy, & I'd try to make the dream last as long as possible.
     
    You are effectively freerolling for a long time at the levels you play - no better feeling. Make it last.

    Thank you Mr Kendall.  When I started this at the start of December I wanted to do things slightly differently.  Loads of people have started trying to spin up a bankroll playing their favourite games.  I wanted to let the community decide what I should play to try and give a little bit back.  The poker brought me here about 2 and a half years ago.  The community have kept me here though the good times and the bad.

    For the record, I prefer playing MTT's.  I love all of them, deepstacks, bounty hunters, freezeouts and rebuys.  They all require a slightly different skill set which keeps me interested.  

    Good luck to everyone and run golden

    Had a great time except from between 9 and 10 when I played like an Orford and put myself from a great position to struggling.  Finishing hands were all standard though.  Must learn to flip better though! lol

    Update for today.  I played the two deepstacks the Rainman at 2.20 and the RVD at 4.20.  A very ill timed bluff in the RVD, I missed my flush draw and oppo rivered a straight.  Was going ok in the Rainman until I ran AK into KK and JJ and couldn't spike my ace.  Oh well :)  Good luck to everyone playing tonight.  Have fun and run well
  • edited January 2014
    Played a £3 bh, the rainman and RVD deepys, the 6pm £2 bh and the THS donk today.  One head in the £3 bh to put my roll at exactly £100 and 2nd in the RVD deepy for £18.92.  Had a huge deficit heads up against an oppo who was shoving a lot from 4 out and couldn't pull it around.  Oh well.  A profit is a profit :).  Donk not finished yet so you never know ;)  Run well all

    Slight, cough, detour this evening.  I went to rail Mr Orford on his cash challange and a seat opened up.  Now this wasn't just any seat but a seat in position of Orford himself!  My will was weak and I couldn't resist a sneaky fiver :).  Fate wasn't with me, well apart from one hand against a short stacked Orford blind on blind AK v KK and I binked the A :)  Me being me I managed to do my stack with AK again this time all in pre against QQ and I couldn't hit.  Oh well.  Oh and I saw the all in sats were running with overlay so I invested 60p in one.  This still adheres to my 100 sat buy in policy and I binked first time :)  I've got past the rebuy and add on stage and it pays 40.  I have just under 30bb when the blinds go up in a min so I'm ok.  Good luck all :)

    3 games today so far and variance was on my side as I cashed in 2 :).  Played both £3 bh and the £1 rebuy.  Bust the first bh badly deciding it was +ev shoving top pair 5 kicker after oppos reraise.  They had top pair with a better kicker and that was all she wrote for me.  Played the 2nd and was down to 112.50 chips with blinds still at 15/30 with flush over flush

    Not a call I would normally make in the blinds but I had over 100bb and the table was loose and I knew I would get paid if I hit.  I set oppo all in on the river to rep the bare ah that missed and was hoping for a call with a pair.  Oops.  I fold the sb with air and go all in with 9 10 next hand after a raise and a call.  BB isolates with AK and flop comes QJ9 and I hold for a quadruple up.  A few hands later I pick up the pocket rockets in the sb and shove over 3 limpers.  I get 2 calls and triple up to 1185 and I'm back in the game :)  It all goes fairly standard from there and I bink 6th out of 93.  Rebuy starts with a double up against an oppo who thinks they can get me off top pair, history and notes on them show me I'm good most of the time and I was.  Nothing major happened in it and I just kept picking up chips.  Ended up 3rd out of 23 with just 3 paid.  Happy days to cash in 2 out of 3 mtts.  Variance was on my side, mainly :)

    This now brings my bankroll up to £118.01 and I have 75 poker points :)  It looks like I will be getting some rewards next month :)  Many many thanks to the wonderful Miss Anna Fowler for giving me free entry into the turbo open on Tuesday.  It is always a pleasure to contribute to the shows and getting a tourny entry too is the icing on the cake :).  I won't be playing much tomorrow as it's my kids birthday party.  They are going 10 pin bowling with a LOAD of friends.  Poor Chav's wallet!

    Run well all and have fun :D

    Slightly bad news now.  I've just run out of poker points so no more freerolls for a bit.  Not good planning! lol.  I survived my girls party yesterday and my eldests birthday today so I'm now back on the tables :).  Playing the 7.45 £1 deepy and the £2 bh at 8.05.  I've made an executive decision and I'm going to buy into Tuesdays mini as long as my roll is over £105.50.  The lure of the jackpot is too much! lol

    Good luck to everyone on the tables tonight :)

    The less said about tonight play wise the better I think.  Never got going in the BH and out in 35th with 18 paid in the deepy.  Was ok on about 20bb when I got AK suited in the bb and the 2 shortstacks both with less then 10bb went all in.  I called to see KQ and AT.  Q on the flop was not what I needed to see lol.  Went out later on a standard flip.  Not flipping too well at the moment.  Something to work on :).  Have brought into the DTD's for Monday already so my balance is now £109.86.  Not sure what I will play tomorrow, if anything.  Will keep you all posted.  Run well and have fun

    Played the hit squad donk and the 8.05 bh.  3 heads in the bh and nothing in the donk but a great time was had as always.  Just a reminder to you all.  When I bet on the river I ALWAYS have it ;)

    Good first week with about a £40 profit and the DTD already payed for and entered.  Good luck all next week and run well

    Ok, played the 2 £3 morning BHs and 3 £2 bh's in the evening with no real success, the dtd, well 2nd in DTD2 :)

    Very well played Willhelm who owned me HU.  Can't complain as I ran golden throughout.  BR is now £170.93 with 113 poker points so I will be getting a bonus on the 5th working day of Feb :).  I think these two hands show the difference between how I was running in the deepstacks to the BH's today.

    Thank you very much for the offer and everything else.  I heard you won some sort of "roller" on Sunday.  If it's a steam roller I would suggest having a word or two with Tikay, he is interested in those sort of things :)

    Haven't played this morning and won't until the Rainman and the RVD this afternoon.  As I have over £155.50 I will be buying into the mini and going for the jackpot tonight.  Nothing ventured nothing gained and all that.  After last night, I now have enough to do the £1.60 sats to the main event.  Good news!  Pity there are no more of them until Thursday lol.  Will try to keep the roll intact until then :)

    Run golden everyone and have fun
