If anyone has a SS subscription it'd be great if you could post a DYM graph/stats for me either for today or for all of January. Even better if you could break it down by stakes :P (I've played 3s, 5s (turbo and regular), 11s, 16.50s, and 22s)
So if you are not really just bumhunting me, then please stop flopping quads.
Otherwise, GL.

Beautiful.
I've only been playing MTTs this past week cos been doing a lot of stuff round the house in the daytime, redecorating etc. so points have slowed down. I'll probably do cash in the mornings for this coming week cos of double points, then for the last week, I can take my pick of SnGs or cash. Still comfortable for Prio.
Did you enjoy Double Guarantee week, Paul? Think the overlay bill was something like £18,000.
It repeats next week, too.
I assume most of those £33 tournies are daily 8-00pm Main Events? If so 158 games is still a small sample in a tournament that averages well over 300 runners.
It's a horrible ROI, but it can definitely be explained as just a quirk of MTT variance. I once had a similar run in £5.75s with much smaller fields. Sooner or later it should/will even out. Good luck.
It will turn.
I was having a couple of day's off over the weekend anyway because it was Emma's birthday, so that was a good chance to have a break from the game which felt much need and I've since spoke to a few of the lads on Skype, mostly Bates and Perc and had some very solid advice.
I just gotta try and remember, I had a decent year on Sky last year and I'm sure I had loads of awful patches throughout the year but it ended up alright in the end, so just gotta keep ploughing on with the volume and know that it'll come good in the end.
Feels a bit disjointed this post but just wrote what came to mind, prob doesn't even make sense but I need bed now.
Just a reminder to take a look in the Prio Board Paul, as there are some changes & additions to the Prio Freerols this month.
The Priority Board is HERE
I won't be posting on the diary throughout this month cos I'm going into 'lockdown', trying my hand at DYMs and putting all my focus into that and volumeeee.
So that's just the poker stuff out the way which actually in the grand scheme of things isn't so bad. For anyone who is mates with me or keeps up to date with my diary, you'll know that one of my daughters (Lily) who has just turned 8 has had a multitude of hurdles since she was born, too many for me to list them all, but she has some physical disabilities along with EDS and has recently been diagnosed with austism too. As of late, the 'symptoms' of which have escalated vvrapidly, she's becoming generally more unhappy, more angry, progressivly more violent/physically aggressive, she's often refusing to eat, refusing to sleep, she is swearing (seemingly involuntarily) at pretty much everyone, me, Emma, the teachers, other kids in her class, her sister Leah (5yr old) who is also becoming really upset by this whole situation. Naturally other parents at school are hearing about this behaviour and 'comments' have been made to the teachers apparently, although they made a point of saying they were comments and not complaints. The teachers are struggling to cope and hints have already been made (imo) at her being excluded/expelled from the school, which would be awful for Lily because she is SO reliant on routine etc that a whole different school would probably make her lose the plot.
So inbetween all of that, and poker I'm just losing the plot lol!
Not really sure how to end this, cos I'm not really sure where I'm going atm but I really wanted to vent it all. I know this is pretty much not poker related at all, but it felt like a good place to get it out (for me).
