    ty Garry, ive never really even considered doing the small freerolls on here as i guess the greed side of me always thought it was too much work for too little pay day. But there not and i would urge people to use there poker points they have earned to try them, for one its really good practice against the players that we so often call fish or donks which is a term i want to put out of my mind as they are just inexperienced players really, as the calling ranges are so big and helps you to put your mind into lots of situations that you would normaly complain about if playing in a payed for torny. Also theres no pressure and you can enjoy a game with no risk once in a while which to feel relaxed when playing poker means everything. I think i have proven already that it is possible even if i do go bust ill just start the exersise again from scratch. Its really making me feel very disceplined about the way im approaching this and although 10k is a pipe dream im in profit and its building daily which in turn is getting my mind right and making me play better and enjoy the game.

    My plan is to continue with freerolls until i hit the 100 mark before playin payed mtt's
    play only max 55p-£1.10 sit n goes
    Cash games 2/4p with a buy in of £2

    max 2 tables at a time as still having laptop problems.

    2 days of solid poker playing and only a little profit. Been winning a lot of 6 seater sit n goes but mainly getting 2nds, Cash games ive kinda broke evens but decided to play a couple of tornys which i ran deep in only to have been knocked out near the end by horrendous calls angainst bad playing luck boxes. Had too stop playing tonight as i have a spliting migrain and last game went on for so long i just wanted it to stop. Still profit is profit, on with the quest :)

    dym 30p  played 11    W 6    L 51.10 played 1      W 0    L 1
    sit n go
    30p   1st 0    2nd 1    L 055p   1st 8    2nd 3    L 121.10  1st 5    2nd 7    L 3

    This is the critical sage of this challenge IMO.  You now have enough to blow it on wine and women.  We all know of your past failings!  Don't let your usual weak willed old self talk you into it.  Keep the faith Fr Daz.

    2p TO GO TO THE £100 MARK

    I DID VISIT THE POPE LAST WEEK AND KISSED THE HOLY RING (on his finger before you ask) and he gave me a blessing to keep up the poker gods work as all proceeds go to a good cause.... Als bar the majority.

    I have been week in the past and ill try and stay on the path of good and punish all sinners who make bad calls. So far God willing its working and although ive had no sleep i cant stop now 0:)

    Ill post a more descriptive account of my journey so far when my brain dosnt feel like gooooo and im able to write something more intersting than just IM WINNING.

    GOD BLESS YOU ALL 0:)

    These are my stats for dym and sit n goes since i started, i got a couple of cashes in freerolls and 1mtt and made a profit in cash which i havnt kept a record of which i wish i did so will add that next month.

    Its been a bit frustrating getting a lot of 2nds which as you know dosnt pay much on the £1.10 level and i was chip leader on all of them but just had to call shoves with the best starting hands and they end up getting lucky and winning HU, nothing i can do there and i suppose its better than losing. Im not really interested in DYM if i am its only to top up a loss from a sit n go, i havnt the patience for DYM and nothing else.

    I will continue playing the 1.10, 2.20 sit n goes and 2/4p cash tables but dont think im gonna make the 500 CFP target this month as at this level its a struggle to get it and i only started 12 days ago only another 8 left.

    Im really happy with my performance though and the break i had has really helped, along with this challenge so i have something to focus on. too be honest i didnt think i would get this far so quickly and have hit my target of £100 today anything now is a Brucy bonus.

    Its also nice to see so many other regs on here making diarys or challenges and spurs me on to do well so gl to all you guys and gals doing yours.

    you may have noticed im not putting down losses and the reason for this is i only want to post when im up as this gives me something to aim for rather than yo yoing my br if i see what i did have i strive to get back to it or above and thinking positively i dont wanna see losses i wanna see profit. Im also not going to post many or any hands unless i feel i have made a mistake and could do with advise about it NO BAD BEAT STORIES, NO MOANING i wanna keep it as positive as i can so my game remains positive. Any BR advice would be gladly welcomed on this thread as this has always been my downfall over the years.

    p.s sorry about the spelling and grammer but im knackerd and the screen is fuzzy and my fingers hurt.

    dym 30p                  W 6      L555p HU             W 7      L21.10                 w0       L22.20                 W1       L03.30                 w6       L25.50                 W1       L1

    just came 33 out of 586 players in the £1200 mini bounty hunter tonight and got 5 bountys

    big stack on the table was basicaly raising everything even though they had nothing so was holding KQ he raises pre i call flop comes 696 i check he raises so i shove all in for a considerble amount he calls my all in with absolutely nothing apart from a Rag A8off. Was no need for the call he made and still pondering over it now. I could of just called or min raised him but this player would raise anything i did so i made a stand and lost the hand and made an exit. Not the best play from me but i certainly think it was worse from him, But still did ok an cashed so all is good.
