Been playing with £5 all month and max i was upto was £68 then went down to 30p back upto £35 then back down to 70p and back upto £30 now im bust lol. So my origional target of turning £5 bonus into £100 will still apply when i get it on wed hopfully. Bankroll management will be my priority for this challenge but still confident i can do it
Best acheivement for April was to be ranked in top 10 - 5-6 seater sit n go turbo leaderboard on sharkscope so im happy
just made a great and early boost to my £50 starting bankroll, finished 5th in the 5k gtd open, feel unlucky i havent finished higher as had a decent stack, but pushed all in on sb with a8 suited, snap called by the chips leader with kings, no help by the board although not a bad exit as i won £250ish for 5th, therefore my br for today is 315 which is a nice profit , only 185 now to go to get to m target of 500 gl all loza
edit: my exact account balance is now at £312.96 for the great results table from machka
edit 2: BR: £335.88 - small successful cash session day 1 has been a great success

Thanks m8, will try try try my best...................expect to be out the semi by 5.15 though, but hey-ho there's always the primo
On my Mastercash BR I lost £36.64 of my starting £200. Worse still due to the changes in the show there was no TV tarting. I might knock this challenge on the head but I'll sleep on it for a few days, was gonna be a bit of a laugh but with so few live hands now being shown I'm going to have a think about it.
On my main BR Challenge the DYM streak ended on 15. In May I've played 12 £22 DYM and cashed in 11.
Well I joined this little challenge to try and help me controll my bankroll a little better, so when i logged on with £28 this morningi was gonig to be sensible and grind it up.
So first thing i do is join a £11 dym and loose lol didnt do much wrong, 5 players left blinds 150/300everybody short stacked all on about the same, i was just the short stack. On the button have kj suited big blind is sat out so i pushed small blind folds, big blind sits back in just in time and calls with a9 i think and it holds up.
The iload up a cash tbl 4p/8p, play aces teribble after hitting my set on the flop win very little, a few hands later end up getting it all in pre flop with 66 (dont ask) vil has aj, he doesnt hit either but unfortunate the flop and turn come 7 10 10 7 anmd he takes the pot down.
I join a fivers head up tourny and do mange to win that, so my roll now stands at £15.29 so lost just about half of it this morning.
Just gonig to take the kids mcdonalds, then ill be abck to loose the last of it.
Day 1 started spectacularly badly for me. I started playing whilst I was in the office and going through the show script- so perhaps in hindsight, wasn't giving it my full concentration.
Nevertheless I ran my AK into an ultra-loose player who re-raised me all-in and I called, expecting to be either dominating him or in a coin flip.
He had AA!
That was £10 down within 10 mins of my challenge.
Then, on tilt, I piled in my second tenner, with pocket 8s on a 10-6-4 flop. Strangely enough, my opponent called me with his pocket 6s!
So after 30 mins of play I was 20% down.
A disastrous start.
Luckily, I managed to recuperate one pull-up just before the show began at 7.55pm, when my KKs held up against JJs and then after I got home last night at 1 in the morning, I grinded away on two 5p/10p tables and brought my deficit back up to minus £8.

So 8% down as I write, but it was lot worse. I'm expecting to do better from here on in... Hoping to play later this evening on Day 2... Posted by RICHORFORD
Ah, the old "I was reading a show script" isn't that the oldest excuse in the book?
