Limping in with small pocket pairs Chris.....tut tut, get that range a bit more balanced
Not keen on that bluff either, you're just repping so little (apart from a missed draw!), and the villain is only sat with 6 quid so is probably gonna be more inclined to go with anything reasonable he has.
Also, the hands where you flop sets, you should mostly still be betting these flops. A lot of the time people will have a hand that can call a bet but unlikely to bet themselves. We miss out on so much value, not to mention giving villains a chance to catch up by letting them see a card for free. There are occasions when slowplaying is fine (preferably in position, or in an already bloated pot etc) but generally just bet bet bet your good hands and don't be scared about losing your customer.
Cheers for the advice, a pain in my game I feel hhyftrftdr, I like to see a cheeky flop and do worry about losing my customers, leaks im trying to fix every session, slowly but surly I hope to get there, looking at the bluff as you say I didn't think this through enough, which I find a little hard in the time given, have another to post if I can find it. but all advice and criticism welcome as I try improve each time and enjoy everyone's point of view on the hands.
Been a good month so far pretty sure im still in profit from my cash sessions and br Is back up a bit although all in sats have still took a hefty chunk......but really cant help it, id love to get into the £55 bh's Played last night a few mastercash tables and then sat with orford at 40nl and walked away with a profit, will post hands below, lost a buy in at 10 nl stupidly ill explain with the hand in a min. so back on for some double points, ive well smashed my 'up your game target' and made the most points ever in a month, not much for the regs but plenty for me Last night they ask what your biggest link was and I find I prob have a few, playing out my means, tryinhg all in sats, playing pretty hands out of position, but when I lost this hand to a reg at the tables, it hit me like lightning,..... my biggest weakness is not folding when I have a strong feeling im behind.
shall we look...... ok lets go
hand 1
Now this player I see every night, so much so I will stay away from pots with him unless I have a good hand to go with, this is my biggest weakness right here...... I go along with the hand and improve every street, and loving life, the bet comes at the end.... FIRST OFF I think I should just call here, as the full/house is out there, now... I also feel if I raise I know exactly where I am, and if I get re raised I let go.....
I know im beat here, and when I look at the board again I try to think what he has.....I say he doesn't have A5 and stupidly click completely forgetting about sets, I know this player is not reckless and what could I possibly beating that he would re-raise here. this is my weakness.

so, so far my total cash profit is £79.80 and 1090pts
I think my total is a little short, as I cant find the night before lasts games in the account search thingy.
another good session, 2 tables of 2o.nl and made £13 after a short time.
played the orfordable, The £11 £3.500 BH, tok one head had a good start. but soon fell away, AK-AA, one £3 all in sat...at least it was only one, and not the 4,
Well a small updtae on whats happening...... not much.
After a successful month ,, i think at low level cash i feel it went well and finished the month in cash profit but way down on mtt's. qualified for all 3 freerolls aswell so happy with that. having had a terible saturday and couple of days playing when i really wasnt feeling my best i entered far to many bigger buy ins and destroyed my roll,
playing the fosp game and tpt team game tonight, then that is it!!!! for mtt's. i will 100% not touch another mtt on sky this month and play solely cash (apart from the freerolls) when im in the mood and ready to get going again. im not down or anything im feeling good with my progress at low stakes cash between 4-20nl and hopefully continue u to make small profit through these with increasing volume, i dont play an awful lot but hopefully it goes well like last month.
Been a while since ive been on my diary or the forum to only return to hear the terrible new about dagg, wish him and his family all the best.
ive not been on for a whilem mainly, not had much to deposit as ive had to use money for other things, my wirless keyboard was nakered and found a complete pain to type using on screen keyboard.
what ive been doing in the meantime.
Ive been playing more live, starting from the mayweather fight, i playe a sat for a 25/25 ticket, went to final table as chip leader and spewed away basicaly, some silly calls by myself i shouldve avoided and missed the seat, ahh well was a fun night of poker,
Otherwise ive still been playing my local on tueaday in the NUTS poker league, currently top which im happy with and won a couple of time there this month so enjoying my tueasdays. althoug i was 2nd out this tuesday AA cracked by AK... happen, 3 outer for a ten and he gets there. gg for me.
Played the regional aswell for the nuts poker league for glasgow and lanarkshire league at alea in glasgow, and maneged 14th out of 200 there or there about and locked up my seat for the national in edinburgh next saturday. so hopefully goes well.
OFC
Ive also decided to start playing OFC open face chinese poker, pineapple mainly and love it.
watxhed a couple of videos on youtube on the basics and looked to where i could play, only place was tonybet for money so deposited a £5 last month and cant get enough of it.
anyone else play???? i find it really fun and for 2cents or 5 cents a point you dont need to much money to play it, after a while m,ainly on cash on it ive played the freerolls and some 1 euro games and cashed a couple so must be doing ok i suppose, not alot of runneres up too about 150 in the freerolls.
now what
bk for a while this month, noticed on thursday churchy posted facebook for neil channing in the plo8 games and thought id give that ago.... i deposited £8 as it all i had to spare and played the £1.10 and £5.50 game,
went on to win the 1st game for £18 so a thank ou to tikay for that as all my plo8 knowledge is mainly from that m,an right there, really enjoyed the game and seemed to be a scottich/celtic final table so was a really enjoyable game. wel done too 67bhoys and the king aswell.
i was set to make a deposit on friday as i mainly play low stakes cash now and enjoy being down at that level at the minute, but as i won £18 i never made the deposit and have turned that in £33 now with x2 tables of 4nl so won a few buyins there so ill stick there and stgick with cash again, apart from forum dtd game where i will be playing for team dagg.
