i managed to build a ok ish roll £500 from £85 but the poker gods turned on me yesterday and this morning lol see the area 51posts it happens so im going to take a few weeks off from sky
good luck to all the guys who i reg play against and to all the ones i havent

Yeah as above you get on a heater best to stay on it i know how it is kinda sucks i have done this alot in the past just next time stick playing same games and gradually move up, i hope u cashed some out at least?

i know what a way to crash and burn i sat at 25p 50p blinds as i think the standard of play is much better but hey thats poker i suppose

i really enjoyed the sky roller two of the last hands i posted earier where my mistake and exit hands cant grumble  hope to have a good crack again soon

A lot of people say this to justify playing at a higher level, but you should just stick at the lower levels where the play is poorer and continue to profit until our roll allows us to move up. I'm all for taking shots, and have been successful and very unsuccessful at doing so in the past but it needs to be against opponents we deem to be beatable, not the better ones. Playing unrolled at a level is -EV, playing unrolled and against good players is - -EV, and unfortunatley two negatives don't make a positive in this instance.

Always preserve your roll and if you take shots make sure its for the right reasons and you are comfortable about the prospect of losing and what it will leave you left. We all sometimes feel indestructible after a heater but it isn't the case, far from it sadly. GL for the future!
