got a few errands to run now, but will have another session tonight and hopefully win myself a hoody
while the stats in this table look bad, considering how i badly i ran, to finish the session only £30 is a success in my eyes, never had a session like it, and cant imagine ill have one similiar for a while either.
After having the worst night on the site that i can remember last night, tonight turned out to be a decent one (although i let myself down in the mini should of got a lot higher cash but hey ho) played the mini and 2 free rolls along side a bunch of £3.30 dyms. managed to win the UKPC FR but as i wouldnt be able to attend i bought in and took the cash instead.
had a long mtt session today, was it enough to make the top 50 points earners? who knows, will play some more this evening hopefully but had a very good day so far regardless.
figured as its gona 12 id update, dyms did well, tried satting into the ME today did well to get into the early semi, then fnished that 2 places early in 7th abit gutted but played well and im sure ill sat in one day soon.
Just managed to take a 10th place finish in the 10:40 bh, but it could/should of been better and im sure im gonna win it soon
Hi Lee good to see you back grinding and well done on your results.
Congratultions on the birth of your son you will be able to have baby chats with wardy at the tables.
My poker not going so well for a while now i'm playing breakeven poker at least i'm not losing much. Still struggling with the 5s. its a bit frustrating to be honest.

See you at the tables Andy Posted by spinky6108
morning andy,
keep at it, the 5's are definetely tougher but not so much that you wont still have an edge over most of the recs and some of the regs. im sure that given a decent side sample you will be turning over a good profit.
To bankroll nits like us, £20 is a very handy bit of bunce.
Today is SNG points day, & with liquidity @ £5 & above in PLO8 DYM's pretty thin, I've got very little chance, but I'll be giving it a shot. It's an excuse to play poker a bit longer than usual.

theres plenty of liquigity in the NLH £5 dyms, come join us for a few
as a dym grinder obviously im giving todays promo a shot aswell, im at 298 points for the day so far, but again not sure what kind of target to aim for. seeing as its excluding prio i imagine 500 will be more than enough so thats the target

Ha, good luck.
I keep detailed daily records of all sorts of boring stats when I play, including points earned, & realistically, 150 is about the maximum I can earn this evening. I managed 237 yesterday, but I started at 3.30pm, & played until 9pm, but of course Sunday night liquidity is much higher.
Leicester v Chelsea on telly tonight wont help either, but never mind, if I can make £20 profit from results it'll not be in vain. On the other hand, if I drop £50 trying to earn £20.......
I suppose I could revert to NLH this evening, but those boys would probably eat me alive these days.
Jeez, it's time I grew up & did something more worthwhile with my evenings, but I just love poker.
heres an interesting hand in the main event satelitte, I consider the villain to be a very good player, TAG. im 17/25 with 21 getting a seat and 22nd getting £6.60 (not of interest to me), do u think i should be calling here and attempting to all but garuntee my seat, or is the fold going to be thre right one in the long run?
I fold personally - looks like we are ok blind wise tbh, yeah win hand seat almost locked - but prefer to shove a few and keep ticking over - is amazing how tight people get in calling late stage
so overall another very good day, got knocked out of the Main Event in 11th, was sitting well in 3rd but then shoved QQ into KK and struggled from then on, did well to get as high up as i did in the end.
My thoughts on the hand so you start the hand with 16 big blinds and 17/25 with 21 seats.
In terms of chip ev its a call as your way ahead of the shovers range.
But here icm comes in so while your making money in chip ev i havnt done any program simulations to find out but id be surprised if this wasnt a fold in terms of icm.
16 big blinds is a lot of chips in a satelite your stack is worth more than it would be in a normal tournament. When we lose the hand here its an icm disaster as were in a great spot to get the seat.
In this kind of situation i think your calling range should be pretty tight.
Another thing to think about is it takes a better hand to call with than to shove with. So if you blind down a bit and get like 67off or something and your on like button or even the cutoff you can jam into stacks that dont want to call off and get folds so often. You need to pick the right people to do it against tho as some players wont undersatnd icm!
Overall think its a good fold with the icm considerations.
Another very good profitable session, didnt finishwork until 1am btu thought id have a small session before heading to bed, played 1 MTT and finally converted a FT into a win for £50 ish, i guess i owe sky a thankyou for runing the MTT promo as part of the winter giveaway, it gave me the oppurtunity to give myself a decent session of MTT'srather than just the odd 1 or 2 and to build my confidence up, i know now that i am good enough to make profit from the mtt's on this site not just the Dyms and will be playing MTT's more often as a result.
Another very good session, but im very very annoyed with the £20 dym game, not that i played it and it being outside my BR, i did the research first, knew i had an edge on 4 of the 5 players at the table, but omg did i let myself down on the bubble and really should be sat here with £60 profit instead of 20, but ill get over it and grind away some more tonight .
Another good day on the Dyms, Mtt's finished about break even, but i put my first football bet of the season on today, a £20 trixie on leicester, bournemouth and tottenham and that came steaming on in for a nice profit
So the idea was to win enough money to take my family to disneyland in febuary, but if i carry on like i have been thelast week or so, might even be able to get out there for xmas . in all seriousness though, another very good night. found the step up to the 11's fairly simple so far, although the sample size is obviously quite small at the moment, theres no reason for me to think this cant continue.

Craig - I really like the way you have set out that "table" of results.
I may "borrow" that, if you don't mind.
ops, sorry.
I have no idea why I did that.
There you go Bus Bloke, the results of the MTT challenge are HERE
