you only started this in April, not even done your six months yet !
Bearing in mind Gary done it in 8 months
don't know about JC
but thats some volume fella - pat yourself on the back - get to £1000 and take a holiday )
your laptop might not cope with playing more than 6 tables m8,but your brain is a marvellous thing and can cope with an awful lot.
you deffo need a new pc as i realised i did,and tbh it's the best thing i've ever bought myself,and has paid for itself already.(only bought it this March i think. £580 in total).
it's like everything i guess,if you want to do something, try and do it well,that's my motto.
my brother Mark annoys me,he's just got so much talent but he never does anything 100% like he should.
he could make twice as much as me,if he wanted to.
anyway,
"food for thought"
dev
yes,i would pat myself on the back....
but i've only got short arms. lol
tbh,and it's easy with hind sight,but if i hadn't played the £5 and obviously that 1 night the £11's,)
and just concentrated on the £3 level(once my b/roll allowed me to),which i am now doing...
this challenge would be over now and i'd probably be on to the next one???? lol
as for a holiday...
i don't really have them....
to ****** busy playing poker,aren't i.
no seriously,there's nowhere that i'd really like to go....
been Cornwall a few times as a kid.
got lost around Bournemouth a few years ago and in Bath too.
lost my car in Bristol once...
wen't there to meet this girl that i met on holiday up at 'Sandy Bay' holiday park in Exmouth...
somehow managed to find her house....
wish i hadn't, she dumped me. lol.
not to mention took me 3 hours trying to find my car,
would have been nearly as quick walking home lol.
i once was going to go 'deep sea fishing' with my brother,dad and his friend,who's boat it was....
we got as far as the 'clock tower' along Exmouth sea front,about 200 yds or so from where we set off,
and i was 'sea sick'.
and it was quite a nice 'calm day'
so we returned to Exmouth docks,got the 'eggs & bacon' on...and i felt fine then!!! lol
so,no i just think i'm a home bird,(no nothing like that...)
and travellings not for me.
(oh,and as a kid,i used to get 'car sickness' just travelling to Exeter,....about 10 miles!!! lol)
you gotta laugh,haven't you!!!

Nice going son , i've been too busy with the house move and decorating to play much in the last month or so but been reading your posts regularly.
Really impressive stuff.
Didn't we have a little wager earlier that you would buy the beers when you hit £1000?? lol
Keep it up buddy
Hopefully i'll get chance to play a bit more soon.
Regards
Mick
i really can't take the credit for it as i copied it from Johnconnor when he did his DYM challenge,a little while ago.
it is a very aggressive strategy,and for me anyway,probably to much so for my liking.
i did manage to keep to it up until i reached the £5 level,but from there on it no longer worked,for me anyway.
johnconnor was able to carry the plan through though,to a very successfully conclusion.(22 buy-ins each level,i think)
that's why still to this day, i call him 'the master' and my self 'the apprentise' lol
gl with it if you decide to 'go with it'
dev
ty m8.
hope the decorating 's going better than your poker 'used to' lol
if you can get down to Exmouth sometime buddy,i'll be more than happy getting you that pint that i think did say i would get you once getting to £1000.
in fact i am meeting up with GaryQQQ very soon for a pint,just waiting for him to phone me now,in fact.
keep in touch m8,
and look forward to playing against you again very soon.
be lucky

sunday
16/912
night off....
just got back from having a pint (&1/2 actually) with GaryQQQ & his partner Lea.
it was very nice meeting up with them both,with most of the talk being about poker,it was a nice way to spend a Sunday evening,away from my normal 2 poker screens looking back at me.
with Gary & Lea also being an mtt player, it was interesting to hear their take on things.
the one thing that struck me was just how competent & knowledgeable Gary was about his poker,and his passion and love of the game was very obvious to me,and the same can be said for Lea too.
i wish them both all the very best of luck.
anyway,
back tomorrow,
best wishes everone,

not really m8,
just wanted to see £1000 looking back at me,and not £40.
i know i've said it b4,but it's the truth.
i'll just take it 1 day at a time & see where we go from here.

tuesday 18'9'12
won £35.40
b/roll £976.78
c4p 126
total 1917 = £19.17 to come
tbh ran pretty rubbish all night,apart from the finish where i won something like last 6 games from 7.
so another decent win.the finish line is in my sights now and i'm hoping i can find a bit more stamina from somewhere, and with some run good we are home and dry.
