always thought u had good game wp n1 sir

Friday 16th March:
Having won the Sky Roller yesterday, I decided that the best cash level to have a go at was NL30. After all, I'd never felt out of my depth the couple of times I'd played at NL20 before. In the second hand, I decided it would be a good idea to get my money in with TT pre-flop. Ended up against KK and binked a 10 to put me up a buy-in. Bled a few quid by making pretty bad mistakes, including "value betting" a set when the river bought a 3rd spade and I'd put my opponent on a flush draw and he checked to me on the river. Played for about 45 minutes on 4 tables, and despite my early double-up, I ended the session £5 down.
Tbh, I found NL30 quite difficult, not because the standard of Poker is particularly high, but because it's just such a mixed bag. You've got some players who could probably play NL200 if they were rolled for it, some players who are playing at NL30 because it's the right level for them, and some people limp/calling and should probably be at an NL4 table (Not that I'm complaining!). Think the most challenging thing was not having any notes on anyone, not knowing who the regs are (My fault for forgetting that "Find a Player" exists), and generally spewing as I went along.
Only withdrawal so far is my deposit of £50, so all the money in my account now is winnings, not really sure what to do with the rest atm :S
Also played a couple of DYM's.
£11 DYM - W0 L1, -£11.00
£22 DYM - W1 L1. -£4.00
As it's the start of the new F1 season, I had a few bets on this weekend's qualifying:
1) Kovalainen to Out-qualify Petrov, £3 @ Evens - Kovalainen has been very impressive in the last 2 seasons despite being in a poor car near the back of the grid, whereas Petrov, while solid, hasn't really impressed me that much since coming into F1. Kovalainen has been with the team for 2 years, whereas Petrov is a newcomer, which will surely give Kovalainen an edge, so 1/1 is pretty decent.
2) Michael Schumacher to Out-qualify Nico Rosberg, £2 @ 11/4 - In testing and practice (Yes, I know it rained yesterday), Schumacher has actually looked the quicker of the two. An 11/4 cert IMO, can't get much better than that!

spend £1000 on something you need/want or get in your bank account )
play NL10/20 - around that level and skim your winnings off each month
beat these levels for a while then think about moving up

The daily grind is so much more fun when you can win significant amounts of money, as opposed to playing for hours and only getting £5 and a few Poker Points. Stepped up to £11 DYM's now, but playing any games up to £33 if they're not full of regs, and I don't really feel out of my comfort zone doing so.
Need to find out if I'll be home over Easter, if so, I'll definitely be having a go at a few of the Super Roller satellites. Also tempted to try qualifying for SPT Cardiff, loved SPT Brighton and want to play live again. Gutted it's not sooner though as Leeds are playing away vs. Cardiff the week before the SPT...Sigh.

GL
It was bound to happen eventually...
Master Cash 7, -£113.71, played badly and ran even worse, had flush vs. flush for about £40, and Q9 vs. KK where I put my opponent on a flush draw on a 9 high, monochrome board. I was sort of right, but he had another king to go with his flush draw, lol.

These Cry Baby's on site really are just making fools of themselves. Why can't they at least put it down to variance for a bad beat, welcome a bad play as info for the future on a player or just reccognise that they're are probably just tilting themselves.
Maybe we should start a thread for Cry Baby putdowns.
I saw a lovely one whe i first started playing on site 9 months ago.........
........
.........it just said "Taxi!!" and i could just imagine all others at the table giggling as Mr Cry Baby ran off andkicked his cat!!......priceless!
Hope2c more of u on the DYM's, bring some friends - playing me is like taking candy from a baby atm!
