25 hours this time?
Think i'll give the 25 hours a miss this year:)
Hardly seems like a year since we done that!
If something was going to be organised it could be along the lines of Friday night to Sunday and keeping a table going for the whole time and people could sign up to play at certain times, as long as there was always two people keeping the table open.
Hand 1 I probably follow the same line as I'm assuming you have here... call the flop and semi-bluff the turn in order to try and get a pair to fold.
Raising the flop in these spots, albeit with good equity, rarely gets a high enough % of folds to be profitable (assuming that limp, donk tends to indicate the oppo has a piece of the flop and will happily pay to see at least one more card).
The K can therefore be seen as a bit of a scare card, even if oppo has a weak Qx. Appreciate they may still be the sort of player that will call with 2nd pair (or 3rd/4th pair) so the bluff may still not work quite enough to be great... but imo gets way more folds than if we raise the flop.
Keep running well in the Xmas challenge!
Ten how are you getting on with the deepstacks, not played one in ages now.
Shakin I ended up betting the turn, didn't think it could be to terrible, and was min raised.
It was a pretty pukey spot, I didn't quite have the odds to call, but with implied odds to call.
Rivered the nuts and he kindly jammed into me:)
Profit
£1006.99, of which I have withdrawn £450. Also due to get £126.70 rake back in October from 6335 poker points. 22.67% of way to target!
Delighted to have broke 1k so far.
MTT's are apox minus £50 for the month.
Cash at times can be a grind, going to try and get more MTT's HU Sit and Goes in this month.
Going to play the 7:15 and 7:45 deepstacks, 8:05 BH and the 7 O Clock freeroll tonight for a bit of fun.
Used to love playing these tournaments, and havn't played them in ages!

PS ~ How's Christmas coming along?
Hey everyone, quick and final update.
October was bad at the start, and really good at the end of the month.
I made less than the previous month by about £200.
The 1st 10 days in November were amazing, had my best week ever on cash during this time.
I put in a decent amount of volume during this time and made priority by about the 12th/13th of the month thanks to double poker points. So that's atleast another £300 ish in rake back,
Ironically my first losing days after the amazing run good were Friday and Saturday which are normally my best days.
Since my decent winning run/ making prio volume has been quite low, and only slightly up over this period - been having big swings between decent days and losing days.
Was talking to someone about threads like these, challenge style ones where people post up £ returns or £ goals.
It was good for motivation, but it will be the last time I make a post like this talking about money or goals, or anything won lost. This will be my last post on this thread.
I'll just finish by saying I'm loving poker right now, went through a phase of not enjoying it as much.
And am really looking forward to 2015, i'm going to spend time in the New Year working a bit more on MTT's to try and up my tournies game.
Thanks for reading everyone and good luck at the tables.
