Ok, I might be on then, if I am i'll just post up here again : )
Thnk you for the reply JJ/Dohhhhh. A very informative and detailed response.
Sooo we can multitable cash games four to five tables easily enough but to do it in Heads up would be a mistake, as a lot of decisons are player based n having a feeling.
I think I will 3 table SNG's but leave 4 tabling alone.
I read 'Heads Up No Limit Holde'em' by Collin Moshman after a poker pro said it was a very good read but found a lot of the advice/tips were common sense and that there was little insightful or useful information. Is there any books/blogs/forums u use for Heads up SNG's that u would advise?
If you can 3 table HU sngs thats very impressive imo, I think you should be happy with that and not look to push yourself much further......
With HU sngs you're gonna have diff oppo's in each game too, which wont help.
I've not read any books on HU play, most of my learning has been done via husng.com, there's some free videos there, although not much about hyper turbos.
Obviously theres 2+2 as well, they have a hu sng sub section on their forum (it's huge). Check the sticky threads theres tonnes of links to loads of literature & key threads & stuff.
I'm wanting to make some hu sng videos myself tomorrow, post them up & hopefully get some feedback. Todays job is to find a mic that'll let me do it ! ........... :S

Great thread, JJ. I would be very interested to watch any videos you make, good luck with that.
Played Fri instead of Sat this week, it turned out to be a good decision despite spunking 100 books when I had to employ the eye patch.
#rough.
Not much to say, think I'm playing really well atm, very confident of winning every hyper I play. It's a good feeling, & the complete opposite of how I felt half way through Jan.
Weekend full of sport now, then back playing on Monday.
I got a mic & camtasia working yest so should make a vid on Mon. I coulda made 1 yest but just spent all day abusing hoggers with my voice, rather than with text.

This mic is bad news, he was saying things like "hose me down" and "poker is a never ending game" as well as "I only told you to blow the bloody doors off!", name that film !
2 days offline after a terrible session on Thursday. I don't remember much about it and that's probably a good thing.
Once again chose to take cash shots at completely the wrong time, against completely the wrong type of players, in a terrible state. Donated obv.
The 1 consolation is I didn't spew on sngs, so my stats are still in tact. In fact I made a few quid playing them, which makes it even stranger that I would go and commit bankroll suicide.
Having blown a load on cash, I've whiped out all my cash profits almost to the penny, I'm still about 20 quid up for the month. lol.
I'm banning myself from cash tables, and gonna grind the hypers as much as poss in these last 2 sessions. 100 games a day. Prob start @ 5's as I'm abit fragile after Thurs!
Not far off the leaderboard now, I hope to be there at the end of the day.
I've been reading TommyD's diary, and have seen how successful it has been.
It's got me thinking, posting my results from 'last nights session' isn't really gonna interest that many people, so I might as well follow his lead and open up some other discussions....
My views normally go against the norm, so I'll start with something everyone can make a contribution to........................
It's all about inspiration........
I want to ask people who, or what inspires you? Not just at poker, but in life?
I normally just think that stuff like that is a load of boll ax!
.............
But then I watch the Gary Speed tribute game last night, and a football match brings a tear to my eye?
How? I'm not Welsh, I'm not a Leeds fan, I didn't even really appreciate his footballing abilities whilst he was with us.
But if/when you watch that kind of thing, all the above goes out of the window.
I was inspired by his Wife and Father standing on the pitch singing the national anthem, and his 2 young lads walking down the team line, shaking hands with the opponents & officials.
It takes alot to bring a tear to DOHH's eye, but the Speed family on Wed' night managed it.
There are more things that have and will inspire me, I might go in to them if the thread develops, but I'd like to know who/what inspires you to better yourself?
I once shed a tear watching titanic, but i was only 11
Football usually gets me going so does most sport, not in a tearful way but motivational one.
As for tears any close friend or bad stories which are close to home like when someone has cancer and the trauma their family goes through aswell as them.
Another thing is when Children or animals are harmed, they're probably loads of situations but never get emotional over my life no point

I've enjoyed following how your days play has went (and hope that you won't drop this from the thread) but I'm looking forward to seeing how this develops.
It will be hard for anyone trying to follow along the lines of TommyD's thread to match it, but you are one of the bigger forum personalities and this could be quite interesting.
I don't suppose it will attract the universal (and well deserved) love that Tommy's has attracted because of your more devisive style/views, but this is what will make it an intriguing alternative.
Agologies on behalf of Jean' et Alain for the minor dispute that crept on to the thread last week :P
At least 50% of the people directly involved in the incident have assured me that it wont return to the thread
The disappointing thing about the whole incident in my eyes is that I'm back below the 300 post mark! 275 of which are mine. sigh
Just a final, non-controversial (hopefully) thought on the whole thing....
Anyone who has got to know young gun via sky poker, either on twitter/facebook/forum or in my case msn will know he's prob one of the most honest, genuine guys around. I don't wanna go too much in to that, his head is already big enough, literally.
But just look at his Big Brother audition thing, both for proof of the size of his head, & how honest & open he is.
Do I think young gun would be daft/dopey enough to say the wrong thing at the wrong time?
Yes.
Do I think he would ever make a malicous, nasty, un-neccesserry comment intentionally and then lie about it?
Never.
Maybe trying to defend him by having a go at the person making the accusations wasn't the best way to go about it. People will make their own minds up in't end!
---------------
Anyway it's a poker day today, gonna continue trying to mix this thread up and post abit about how I prepare to play poker.
I'm gonna go prepare to play poker now tho, just to remind myself what to write :P
dont know what half of that last thread was about, but yg is probably one of the nicest guys on the forum. have met him a few times and has been nothing but a gent.
back on topic , it would be good to widen this thread to include the life of dohhhh, thoughts and feelings on life. from what i can tell we lead very different lives and have as much in common as say my thinking on brm and dudeskins!! but i think thats what makes "dohhhhh" more intriguing.
lol include life of dohhhh, eat a kebab, got drunk, played poker, rinse repeat in b4 thread close(joke) Cheers both for your kind words, shame JJ cant ever come out of that house and get to an SPT one day... Posted by YOUNG_GUN
In Response to Re: "Sit & DOHHHHHHH Diary" : I've been to 1 less SPT than you. Pot's n kettles innit! Posted by DOHHHHHHH
I'm considering driving to Doncaster to personally chauffeur you to the SPT Grand Final if you manage to qualify. I'd even wear a cap and pick up Young Gun on the way. This is a serious offer, please tell me if interested.
but if i had ur money id have gone to everyone since the one i went to tried couple for cheap and failed, once i get job sorted then i will try to go to them all... how many do i need to go to for u to come to one? Posted by YOUNG_GUN
This is the most ironic comment ever!!!!! looooool.
