No need Tikay lad,
It seems, there are a few people that can't spell, the word champ.
It is quite easy if remember the phrase...
C = Cheeky
H = Happy
A = Adorable
M = Magnificent
P = Plopper
Failing that , there is always spell checker. ( try it Tikay, you never know :-)..)
UL last night - couldn't really put you on a hand as strong as AA36 with a suited pair in b v b at that level. As a great champ once said it's not how you start its how you finish and I got there with a rivered wheel.

No problem, phantom lad.
It seems in the last couple of weeks,
that I have been constantly battered by the river card.
( and I am not forgetting it's helped me )
Top tip from the champ,
if you haven't got the absolute nuts by the turn,
No point in crying, moaning, if you get beat by the river card.
It's a drawing game, you hit, I didn't.
The explosion, no I didn't hear it,
I think I had my head phones on at the time.
It must have been some explosion to wipe out those buildings.
I will update this thread on the weekend,
to update my progress on becoming a winning player,
I haven't totted it up yet, I use 1 for a win and 0 for a loss
A quick scan at looks like, 50/50 at the mo. (I know, it's edge of your seat stuff lol)
I thought I would give you all an update for April, before we get to the end of May.I was on a downswing, the backend of March, which continued for the first couple of weeks into April. I was starting to doubt my ability in these games, I just couldn’t get over the finishing line in front.
For example, in the £3 dym’s I played 7 0 games in April, and only on 3 occasions, did I manage to win 2 games in a row. My br was taking a right beating, by the middle of the month, it dipped down to £20.
I was on the verge of going busto, actually if it was not for the tourneys, I would have gone broke. Second, half of the month, things started to go better, I got some descent cash’s in a few tourneys, and took my br over the magic number £100 happy days.
Then came ukops, played 1 £4.80 sats and 5 £1.20 all in sats for the PLO tourney and managed to bink the last all in, so got in a little cheaper than the £22 asking price ,
didn’t manage to cash. It was the same story for the PLO8 failed to sat into it , so bought in direct for £22. Cannot remember how long I lasted.
I could not wait to see the end of April, my confidence was very low, I started to question myself in every game I played. Seriously, I do not think I have been on such a bad run in the dym’s. Every time I won a game, I thought this is it, back to winning,
but it was false hope. All the winning games were followed by loses of up 2 or3 games. By the end of the month, my br went back down, to around £30. Anyway here are the stats for April.
DYM’s
£2.20 played 1 won 1…. Lost 0
£3.30 played 70 won 25.. lost 50
£5.50 played 12 won 6…. Lost 6
£11.00 played won 0 …… lost 2
MTT’s
£1 played 4……….. cashed 1 = £7-50
£2 played 1……….cashed 0 = £0
£3 played 14……...cashed 7 = £81.15
£5 played 11………cashed 4 = £115-70
Plus £59.69 from holdem including £32 from freerolls
Really must do better in May, need to get my confidence and discipline back.
Hi AJ sorry not a member of scope anymore so cant look up your stats. Not been playing much myself maybe get back into it again sometime. Posted by stuarty117
No worries Stu lad, I know you would if you could m8.
Well, the April shower is finally over. With confidence still low, in the first week or so in May, It was time to knuckle down, and stop feeling sorry for myself.
Off to a shaky start, the £3 dym’s are still killing my br, broke even for the first week or so, then started to go downhill again. I think I’ll start playing less of these games. ( played 66 ..Won 31 so far)
The £5 dym’s played 16 won 12, I somehow feel a lot more comfortable playing at these stakes, It does seem to me to be a steadier game, for grown-ups, if you will. Unless it’s my imagination, maybe It’s higher buy-in, that makes me focus more. I took a couple of shots at the £11 and a shot at the £16 games , and managed to win all 3, I know I was 100% focused on those games .
I was only able to take a shot at those games because of the cashes in the tourneys, I should be playing dym’s to fund the tourney’s. but, it seems to be the other way around. Cashed for a £113.55 in the £3 games and £171.25 in the £5 games.
So May, so far has been a great month, my br reached the giddy heights of, £216-00. Considering I was on the bones of my whotsit at the end of April with £30 in my br, I have to say my confidence and discipline has returned, although I am still making mistakes (but aware of them ) I intend to hold onto my br and try my best to keep it north of£200, at least until the end of the month.
Update time, what a glorious month May was. As stated in my last post, the aim was to keep my br above £200. Well I managed to do it. My br peaked at £236 but finished the month on £229. Happy days.
Still struggling with the £3 dym’s although, I played more in May than in April , I did stop playing them for the last week of the month, and concentrated on the £5 games. Which did pay dividends, I managed to win 10 £5 plo8 dym’s on the bounce, that with the £11 and £16 wins gave my br a much needed boost, not to mention my confidence.
It is great to hear that Sky, are bringing back the SPT. I will of course be trying to bink a seat via the sats, when they start later in the month. Even more reason to beef up the br. I may even try and get the 200 points I need for the last ticket to Vegas. Anyway stats for May.
DYM’s
£3.30 played 75 won 36.. lost 39
£5.50 played 44 won 28…. Lost 16
£11.00 played 3 won 3 …… lost 0
£16.00 played 1 won 1……. Lost 0
MTT’s
£1 played 7……….. cashed 0 =
£2 played 3……….cashed 2 = £24.34
£3 played 26……...cashed 7 = £130.09
£5 played 13………cashed 6 = £171-25
Plus £49.00 from holdem freerolls

Results for March
DYM’s
£3.30 played 106 won 51.. lost 55
£5.50 played 20 won 12…. Lost 8
£11.00 played 4 won 2 …… lost 2
I’m slightly down compared to Jan and Feb figures, for the dym’s
But I’m not to worried at the moment still early days.
MTT’s
Total buy-in for tourney’s = £40.30
Total cash’s =£114-55
Haven’t really played that many this month, as a matter of fact £55 of the cash’s
Have come from free rolls, and £36 from a second place in a Vegas sat.
I do intend to play a lot more MTT’s in April, I do prefer the tourney’s Rather than the dym’s ,
but I thought playing the dym’s would be a bit easier, with them being a bit more variance friendly. (hummm lets see what April brings)
I was planning on a more, in-depth analysis of my games, but time as got the better of me.
If anyone ha sharkscope to verify the results that would be smashing (stuarty17 old buddy old pal)

Nice turnaround AJ keep it up m8. In fact , as good a U-turn as Teresa May's.
