    I wouldn't worry too much about the MTT results Timmy. If you're only playing the main and mini every night, that's just 14 MTTs a week so volume is very low and can see you potentially go weeks without a decent run.

    If they are concerning you, why not sack them off for a bit? DYMs are your bread and butter and looks like they are going very well at the moment, so maybe just focus all your efforts into them and forget about tournaments for a bit?

    All the best.

    Don't often say this but I agree with hhy!

    MTTs are all about volume. Also are you playing MTTs at the same time as DYMs? It might be easier to stick to one form rather than mix DYMs and MTTs at the same time. Just a thought

    Hi buddy thanks for your advice. Yeah I don't play to many online tourneys so maybe I shouldn't worry to much I think im gonna give it to the end of the month. But then In March only play the main if I sat into it so maybe try 2 sats a day.
    What u think?

    Yeah, maybe try a couple of sats before you start your DYM grind. They are a little lower variance than standard MTTs, so you should bink a couple of seats here and there I would've thought.

    Couple of 1/5 sats for the £33 mains, and a £12 sat for the £55 9pm BH, is only about a £25 outlay....you'll win that back in DYM's easy enough no problem :)

    Edit....and then only play the mini if you sat into the main, otherwise I don't think its worth your time.

    Hi ya Mattbates thanks for post always nice to have a SKY LEGEND on here.
    On my dym girnd I play from 1-8 tables but when the main and mini start I reduce to 4 tables.

    Quality diary, always like people posting results whether good or bad,and it shows the discipline and down swings that can happen in poker. glad to see the recent upswing in dym results and daily profits.Good luck in the sky/dtd ukpc event.

    Cheers Dave.

    Really enjoying reading this :)

    I see you as one of the best DYM players and to see you still have negative days just proves you should never beat yourself up over odd negative run.

    Really hope you break your final table duck at the UKPC :) 

    Run well

    Hi all been away from the diary since Wednesday don't worry I haven't gone skint things are well these are my monthly figures.

    February 2015 Results :

    Online

    Dym = + £1755
    Tourney = - £845
    Promo = + £136
    Points = 30047
    Points Bonus = + £633
    Stars = - £30
    DTD Stats = - £202
    Staking = + £270

    Live

    Tourney = - £245
    Cash = + £186
    Expenses = - £113


    Hours = 193 

    TOTAL = + £1545

    So after all I was quite happy with the month started pretty bad being - £500 - £550 down but then turned it around and had some solid weeks.

    HIGHS :
    Had a quality month on Dym's one of my best ever. This was my 1st month staking my friend KGEE and he had a really nice 1st month making + £540 so a nice + £270 each. Hes been grinding £5 Dyms and £3-£11 tourneys.

    Lows :
    Online tourneys were really bad losing - £845 didn't cash in many or either remember any deep runs. Playing in the UKPC was a high but not making Day2 was a big low don't think I did to much wrong but a really nice experience playing in a high buy event so be nice to get my self into some more UKIPT GUKPT and GENTING obviously sating in not direct buy ins.


    Targets for March :

    Having a + month on Online tourneys.
    Try sats for Dusk till dawn grand prix.
    Play some cash in BARCELONA.
    Make 30k in Points.


    Good luck with your months everyone.

    Thanks for February! Really enjoyed it! Happy your making the targets, on for a decent tax-free  year! Your always going to do well, you've taught a monkey to play (me) and make a few quid. I'm sure you will have a MTT result soon. Well done mate keep the hard work up!!

    I did think you had gone skint!! no update and you hadn`t told me your monthly figures!! I even popped into the jobcentre in my lunch hour to see if you was in there.....
  • edited March 2015
    Good results and i think with varience of tourneys and cashing in them, a big result is hopefully just on the horizon. Which would make your other great monthly figures be even more impressive.
    Keep going good luck,

     Cheers Dave.
