    This thread is a good read.

    Pretty swingy last few sessions for me, pretty redic really, but i cant fold so its my own fault.

    15k cash for points for month and £6,200 up total.

    Need to grind to 16k points before wed as im off on hol. No doubt will drop £6k to get the extra £150 CFP.

    Why does that always happen???

    18th September has to be one of the swingiest days ive ever had, started off losing 4 pound to AA being called by MPGK and hitting his 2 pair on the river, another 5 pound was lost, when a board came up 3 6 9 guy puts me all in purely cus he thinks i have 2 over cards, hes holding 4 4, i call with QQ, he thinks oh no, then gets a 4 on the turn, then again lost another 3 pound holding AA when i was forced all in pre by J9 who managed to hit j and 9 on the community board, and then i lost when i bet 3 streets against a guy who had called my raise, i had hit top pair top kicker, he called with BPBK and somehow managed to get a full house by the end of his hand
    All that being said, i am now back up to £22.28, which i must of forgotten to update the 17th cus its actually an increase not a decrease xD i think i had £19 when i finally stopped on the 17th

    Work commitments meant last week, I wasn't able to continue my strategy of focusing on main events and satellites into main event, played a few £5mt's and sng's each day, until Saturday where I bought into the £22bh and crashed out fairly quickly.

    The remainder of Saturday evening and then Sunday was all about trying to qualify for the SPT even, Sunday Roller and Primo, net result was a relatively expensive failure.

    Decided to pay the buy in for the mini roller, flopped a set of 3's early on in a 3 way pot, other 2 players went raise to reraise on the 10 high flop, one player had pocket over pair Queens, other had hit his set of 10's.

    Left me shortstacked, managed a double up, but was out when I was dealt Pocket Aces, all in pre flop and got a caller who had AK.

    Tuesday 13th - Sunday 20th loss - £149.96

    September Profit + £1,677.27

    September Points = 1,871

    DTD and extender tonight

    Not updated for a few days so here goes.

    Played 2 mains and 2 minis i think in that time and also some £100nl, £200nl and a short spell of £300nl.

    My account has £574.33 more in it now than it had when last posting on here 3 or 4 days ago and most of that has come from £200nl hitting set v set when both pretty deep.

    September total now +£777.14

    Very best of luck to everyone who posts on here.

    didn't play at weekend - "dad's taxi" in full use!!
    had a good session today helped by the fact that I set mined a couple of times and got paid off.
    nice when that happens.
    up £5.32 on day, so up £24.56 on month.

    good luck

    PS dantb10 - if you ever wanted to drop some of that £6k (BLIMEY!)on nl4 while getting those points I am sure I could accomodate!!!!LOL!!!
    NO!!? Ah well wishful thinking I guess along with everyone else?!

    In Response to Re: **** SEPTEMBER PROFIT CHALLENGE THREAD **** : Had some more wild swings on the hypers then hit gold and won 100 quid in a short space of time on the 20 quidders. Total profit now £437. Cash for points 4.9k. 11 days to make the holy grail...... One thing I have learnt this month is my most profitable game is hu sngs, should never have lost focus and tried other things like dyms. My cash game has however improved from being a donk to a semi donk, so at least some progress there.   
    Posted by ACEGOONER
    Had another barn storming day, played a bit of cash, but mainly £10 hypers today managed an roi of 29% which I know is not sustainable but very nice! Total profit for the month now £646 meaning I have made over 200 quid today playing lower stakes. Cash for points 5.3k.

    Tomorrow need to get those points beyond 6k to have a hope of maintaining priority status.

    20th September, i started my first day at DYM's only did a £1 one where my kings got done by Q 7, after a raised flop, some people just dont get the rules of DYMs lol, and a £3 were i won :) i got a lil luck on my side, ended up being pot committed against the chip leader pre flop holding AQ, he put me all in with KK but hit the Ace on the flop,  the rest was easy, one guy kept bluffing to try and take out the last man, he ended up getting himself knocked out hahaFound myself in a hospital bed today, past out in front of the doctor, blood tests revealed Glanjula Fever, no wonder i been feeling so worn down :(

    DTD and Extender night, contribruted to me playing 9 MT's on Monday, which is probably twice as many as normal for me, day's loss was - £11.67, which doesn't really feel like a loss as I didn't feel as if I was on my game or getting the cards, though I think the subdued feeling I was getting was due to playing on mini view for much of the night, something I still struggle to adjust to.

    ended up £6.88 on the day
    lost a buy in pretty quick when they hit at the end.
    seems to be the way at the moment for me with sessions starting with a buy in or so down then having to grind it back.
    did 3 tables for a while as well. not sure about it as I made a silly fold in one when i was in a big pot on another. lost out on a big pot. wasn't paying that table the attention i should have.

    balance up for month £31.44

    good luck

    Knew it was gonna be hard to resplicate yesterday, losing 7 hypers(most of which where coolers) in a row set the tone of the day. I just couldnt get going, at one stage I was 160 quid down for the day, through playing nl cash up to the 100 level I managed to claw back some of my losses and finally started winning some hypers this evening. In the end loss for the day was only £40, definately a case of damage limitation. 

    Total profit for he month £601, Cash for Points 5.7K.

    Played about 5 hours this morning on low stakes cash tables ( very badly ) so am quite pleased to have ended the session losing only £93.72

    Only played MTTs tonight ( also badly ) and didnt cash in any

    MTTs on day = -£36.30

    Total loss on day = -£130.02

    Monthly running total = +£5344.31

    Also well done to Dart and Jenny for getting so close ( think you were 7th and 8th ) in main, always frustrating getting so close to the big cash but still a good cash for you both and always got to be happy cashing.

    Good luck all

    21st September, not gonna play much today as i woke up and my Glandula fever is giving me bad problems :( but i did play a £2 DYM, it was actually quite amusing, first hand 1 guy went all in with JJ and he got a caller from 99 :S nice for the guy with JJ who doubled up very easily,  but he let the chips go to his head he got involved in every hand, with mediocre hands, and figured a full house KKKQQ was good when the flop and turn was QKKK, he ran into aces, i thought either one of em had the 4th king or they would split pot, but the other guy revealed his AA for a bigger full house, i said to the guy with aces well played but the other guy had a fit and asked me to shut up, said he was gonna switch off chat.Rule number 1 of DYMs, if you get ahead play less hands, if your falling behind play more hands, but make sure any hand you play is going to be good enough to take all the way to the end, he said he was new to poker and its know it alls like me that get on his nerves :S i wasnt claiming to be a know it all, i just offered him some friendly advice to take a look at the DYM forum post if he wanted to improve on his game, but he werent having any of it, however i am glad he was in that game, because everyone seemed to be getting involved, and so i could fold my way to victory, and it was his all in agression that took out 3 people, even if it was a total fluke for him :)

    Third proper session of the month. 

    Bubbled a £3 speed rebuy, which had 80 quid up top. That surprised me. I only entered it to kill abit of time, but will deffo play it again now. 

    The Thews @ 10 didnt go well, cost 22 sheets.

    But was playing a load of HU hypers, and had another winning session. Starting to get to know the regs now, alot of players I've never seen b4 btw!

    Really annoying thing happened. I reg'd for 2x £21 games. Went downstairs for a beer. Totally forgot, got talking, and came back to see I had 100 chips v 900 on both games.

    Soul destroying in these, as if they aren't swingy enough to start with!

    D'OHHHHHHHHHHHH

    Anyway my graph for the last week is below, happy with how it's going.

    Hopefully can still make it a 1k month.

    Attempted a session earlier but all the NL10 tables were proper nitted up so couldn't see much point trying to wait for AA/KK pre, amazingly though there were at least 3 tabels where I could see minimum 5 REGS a table, seriously had a good laugh at that lol.

    Instead went down to the dark depths of NL4, 4 tabling to churn through some hands, and boy was that different, so much table choice, so many fish, basically dream poker. Didn't get a massive profit compared to NL10 but at NL4 it is very good.
