keep it going through feb. good luck
yeah, deffo. it's better than I thought as all my cash efforts previously have pretty much only been break- even or worse.
have to take into account I'm only playing 1-2 tables too.
not sure if/when i'll add more tables, as that's when I seem to lose rather than win, so might just have to be patient and get there slowly this time.
anyway mate, don't think i'll ever get to your level, but i'll take any scraps I can get... I'm not fussy
be lucky

Saturday 1/2/14
2xnl4
W £1.35 br £71.19
played solid. would have been £5 better off if my aipf KK v A5 suited, held up . hit A on river.
never mind, I played the hand well, so no worries.
Sunday 2/2/14
2xnl4 L £5.41 br £65.78
another losing session. played ok I think, seem to be losing a few big hands atm, which is hurting. lost with trip AAA to fl on river for £7 odd. another £4 with KK v 45 flop came 367,
still I feel I'm playing good aggressive poker atm, so no worries, I know things will change around again, well I hope so anyway.
I've had a good run so far, so no complaints.
got to go to work now...'till it starts raining he he.
anyway... laters

nice little win, happy with how it's going atm. sure to have another rocky spell sometime, but will face that when it comes.
really used to playing just the 2 tables now, which is a step forward from last year.
not sure about adding any more, problem being I never know when to stop he he.
back tomorrow no doubt,
night

Really well done. This is why I only play 2 or 3 tables I think my win rate really improves as I can make notes on new players and concentrate more. I think this has turned my poker right round in the last 4 months.
Once you hit the £200 are you going to move to 10nl. Would you play the capped ones.
yeah, deffo agree with you about playing less tables being better for making notes.
yeah my plan is to move up to nl10 at £200. i'll play 1 table and give myself just the 1 buy-in to play with, so i'll either finish at £190 or better. he he.
if I drop to £190 i'll play nl4 again and rebuild and repeat.
already had a couple of sessions playing the capped tables mate, think I won both times, but I know it's a little more risky than nl4 so I quit while ahead
didn't find them too bad tbh, but easy to say that when you've won, isn't it.
Have you played the capped ones?
be lucky,
dev
Personally i,d play more than 1 table when you decide to move up but thats just personal preference although i have to admit when i play MTT,s if i get to an FT i won,t load up anymore games and try and concentrate fully on that one when any other games have finished
GL with the next milestone in your diary
P
yes mate, i'll start off playing 1 table, as I did at nl4, then if I win a few buy-ins around 5, i'll add the 2nd.
You know me though Paul, can't see me playing 2 forever. he he.
I've even taken away my second monitor today as it's no longer needed... now that's progress
cheers mate, be lucky,
dev
are you enjoying it, or finding it a bit of a struggle?
I found it really hard last year, when I first started playing nl10, and if I'm honest, didn't really enjoy it at all.
I guess moving away from your comfort zone and suddenly finding yourself not winning anymore, came as a bit of a shock to the system, maybe., for me anyway I mean.
I'm totally hooked on playing cash now though, and starting off at the bottom, with no bankroll is a real challenge for me.
I wonder if you will make the change too
DYM's are good, don't get me wrong, and much money can be made playing them, as I'm sure you know, but they are hard work, or at least that's how I found it to be in the end. playing up to 18 tables day in day out did take it's toll, and I was pretty much burnt out by the end.
now playing 2 tables is so much more comfortable. ok I'm only winning small bucks atm, but imagine if I was playing 2xnl100 one day... anything is possible you know.. ok well almost anything is possible
just look at how well Lambert180 is doing now... a great example for all of us.
best wishes mate, whichever game you are playing,
