Maybe I'll have a better week next week. Hope it doesn't continue, I really don't want to have to move down a level.
In total I've played 80 games this week, won 42 and lost 38, this isn't very good, it's about a 52% win rate, need to improve. BUT once again, out on the bubble in quite a lot of games.
Never mind, there's always tomorrow.
Also, does a guy called wrongjohn1 ever post here, he plays tons of tables whenever I log on, he must get some serious table time in, also his scope looks pretty good...
Good couple of days.
Yesterday managed to win 4 with only 1 loss.
Today managed a straight 3 game win, then thought I'll leave it there because I don't often get winning streaks (if you can call it a streak haha)
BR is now up to £210, so I can feel the £11 coming, hopefully... few more wins required first.
Hey there JC! Regarding the STT league, there is a link under it which states the current month points, but the link doesn't work. Do you know where the correct link is for this??
Cheers,
Ian

That's £10.50 profit for the day, up to £220 now woo hoo!
Enjoying the run of good form, hope it lasts just a little longer.
Total poker points for the month 790.
Pulled myself together and played another 5, to win the lot, for a 0.50p profit, not much, but profits profit and I'm so happy to be in this position especially after earlier!!!

Well, don't try cash tables after a huge 6 game losing streak. It was sooooo painful, then thought, I'll have a quick go at 4NL and lost my £4 buyin quite quickly, guess you could say tilt, perhaps??
Anyway, the tough thing is not to play anymore, maybe until tomorrow or boxing day, because I can't bear to lose again, and the way it was going I would. Loads of bad beats, and it seemed every flip was going against me, but thats varience.
Plus, tough tables tonight, games were just going to levels 6/7/8 before anyone was getting knocked out, frustrating!!!
I suppose I'll have to wait a little longer before I can have a shot at the £10 DYM's.
Just a quick plus for the forum... it's great to have it here as a way of venting off steam, because I feel so much better now!!
It's done no good for my overall stats, as I'm now pretty much a losing player with a win rate of 54.6%
Let's hope it's just a run of bad luck !!!
GL and Merry Christmas all.
no change,still grinding at £3.30
won 15 lost 8. won £14.10
balance £328.82
still going the right way!
hope you all had a good xmas day
and good luck for 2012!
only 30p NLHE and Omaha initially to get back into them.
after 2 initial small loss sessions now on a 7 cash run until i stopped. so far 9 wins 4 losses.
finding them tougher than they were. people seem tighter now even at this level! I wonder if they've been reading any blogs!!
A few more at this level i think, maybe, but not sure how many. Then move to 60p and up where the rake % is less of a hinderance. We'll see how far I get.
good luck
won 18 lost 5
profit £32.10

looks like my £500 target is in my sights now.

This morning I look to be about 500 league points off a top 30 finish. I think I'll have a little push at that but will be hard now, depends mainly on the other guys I guess...
Hope you all run well for what's left of 2011...
i thank you.
the way i see it is you are happy enough taking the money
when you win,
so i just except it when i lose,
you are only giving back some of what you,ve won anyway.
as long as the plusses
are bigger than the minuses overall,
you,ve haven,t really got much to moan about,have you!
thanks again jc
and good luck yourself for 2012
I think today's session has been the most draining of all the lot so far on this challenge. I played a few this morning and ran really horribly so stopped early for lunch. In the afternoon I clawed things back a bit but was still down for the day. I was pleased, though, after the morning session where I couldn't win a hand it seemed. Then this evening I came on to play and watch the live show and it started really well and looked like it could be a really profitable day. Then from nowhere I think I lost ~9 games in a row and felt myself getting tired and a bit tilty. That was about 10pm and I really wasn't sure whether playing anymore tonight would be a good idea. I decided that I was still playing well enough though, Thursday is a good night and I was enjoying the live show, so I made a quick drink and decided to play one more lot of 6 games. I managed to win 5 of these and end the day £5.50 down. I'm absolutely delighted with this, to be honest, as I haven't had a day as testing as this for a good while now, since before this challenge I would say. If I had forgotten, today has definately reminded me how swingy DYMs are once you move up a couple of levels.
These are the stats I have recorded for the day and I've certainly made a couple of mistakes here as I think these add up to a small profit when I am definately down £5.50:
Played 17 £11s W 9 L 8
Played 7 £16.50s W 4 L 3
Played 16 £22s W 9 L 7
Bankroll - £563.02
Poker Points 3370
So as I said I'm delighted with that small loss. Also really happy with 605 poker points for the day as it's been a while since I put any decent session in and I still had loads of time off this afternoon. I will be aiming for 4,000 poker points, which I should easily manage if I can get on tomorrow night and Saturday afternoon for a couple of hours each. A top 30 in the STT league looks a little unlikely still, but we will see.
Thanks for reading what's probably been a long and fairly boring post. Sorry if it has, but it has been the hardest day yet and it only felt right to document it rather than leave off and forget it. As ever, hope you run well everyone!
off to bed myself shortly.
i had to have tonight off as feeling tired
yes,some sessions can realy drain you can,t they,
especially once you get down a few and you really are grinding
just to try and get somewhere near level!
at least you,ve got the thought that your c4p,s are giving you something back.
keep up the good work

Missed out on the top 30 in the STT league by around 100pts I reckon, a lesson there for the next quarter!
Anyway, happy new year everyone, run well at the tables in 2012!!
it,s not a straight run to the finish line is it?
oh,the joys of poker.
just a thought,what do you think about droping a level
when the going gets tough?
even if it,s just for a session or two
until it passes and you,re back on that winning road again!
anyway,happy new year everyone
see you in 2012
