still only 85p down so i know it could be worse. just a bit frustrated as so much bad run atm. i know everyone gets it,so i,m not complaining., just be nice to get a couple of half decent days in. never mind,c4p looking pretty good. still happy with my game, although the results would suggest otherwise.
into week 2 tomorrow, so lets see what fun & games that brings. :-) devon
sorry I couldn't nip in with my support yesterday Ian
Just read your last couple of updates, these ups and downs are quite normal in dym games. As Ryan quite rightly said "you are a very solid player" so over time, I'm sure all will come good. Big profit from playing dym's might take some time Ian but you keep getting your chips in ahead of your opponents and you will be a winning player.
We played again yesterday & glad to say this time we both cashed :-)
Do me a favour Dev & stay off a table if i am on it in the lobby lol, These Dym's are hard enough to beat without having players as good as you at the table.
I don't know whether yesterday was made tougher with it being a bank holiday & there were more recreational players playing.
Just a thought mate but looking at your recent results, you seem to have a better return playing the £2.25 Dym's, had you thought about trying 1 day at say just that level?
As Lorraine said keep getting your chips in ahead & keep playing well m8 ;-)
hi lorraine, lovely post as always.!!! :-) x hi again mike, did we both cash... that must be a 1st.... well 4 me anyway...lol sorry m8,i don,t look in the lobby, i simply re-load any old table atm...lol so if i am on your table.... make the most of it....easy money i,d say, lol yes, you may be right about the £2.25,s but i genuinely think that it,s "all on the day" as they say.anyway i will keep an eye on it, thanks 4 pointing it out to me.
feels like i,m running up a hill with a gale force wind in my face atm...lol but i,m still hopefull things will change. think i,ll play just about every day on this challenge. i am now fully commited to my poker as up until 5 weeks ago i also played bowls,which was time consuming. just found that i simply wasn,t enjoying it as much as i used to so made the dificult decision to stop playing altogether. not an easy one though as i,d been playing for the past 12 years. still,all things come to an end eventually don,t they?
so anyway, i can now place all my efforts into my poker and more specifically,...mission impossible. i will play until the end of this month and re-assess the situation. if i feel i,m simply wasting my time i will/may have to pull the plug on this particular mission. but that is 24 days away,so along way from that,i guess. even if i only break even from my play which is the case atm,with the c4points building up quite nicely i,m sure to be in profit. at the end of the month. if you get the impression that i am feeling a bit down atm then you would be right,i am. a weeks work 4 no return just isn,t cricket,is it. i said i would be posting after each session both good and bad, as i have,now i,m even posting b4 i,ve played, what,s going on? i wish everyone the very best with there own poker,and i hope that you are all running alot better than yours truly. all4 now, back later, :-( lol devon
Come on mate - don't get down about it :-) I'm running pretty bad at the moment too. Slightly up on the £1 tables and slightly down on the £2 ones (not fogetting the rake !!!) lol
chin up devon a football team whos in the relagation zone or up near the bottom of the league never gives up after one season they fight on to try for promotion the next season. A Draw is better than a loss and eventualy those wins come and so does the glory Breaking even or even a small loss is fine and happens in this game, next month or even yet this month you could be on your way up the tables. Just chant 'Come on you Devonfish! 'Come on you Devonfish! 'Come on you Devonfish! feel the crowd roar
thanks JINGLES, hope your luck changes too m8, how many tables u playing atm,? i,m playing 9. :-) thanks mick, yeh,just on a low at the mo, not thrown in the towel just yet buddy. hope your luck changes 2 :-) dev Posted by devonfish5
I hope so2!
I'm doing 12@tm, I've tried 15 but it's2many on just1screen so I've ordered another monitor - should arrive later this week. I'm taking a break2day, but will play in the priority freeroll in a bit.
Keep going mate - u've clearly got the drive2succeed, stay positive and don't lose belief - u'll get there I'm sure!
thanks Daz, lol :-) that,s ok..... but will anybody hear me?
cheers Jingles, yeh,just on a low day, but i,m sure it will pass. 12 is good m8 is that dym,s u r playing or cash? i have been trying 10/11/12 but keep making mistakes when around the bubble on say 6/7. but 2b fair only been playing 9 4 a little while, so i suppose it,ll come. besy wishes, dev ********************************

Your going well.C4Ps will be a really nice bonus at the end of the month.I have only got to play a few tables with you as I'm struggling to get the games in.I can only do four tables at a time on my laptop top.I feel comfortable playing that many, I don't think I could handle any more.The drawback is I cannot get the volume of games I want in.I will hit 100 games since the first of May today sometime have being keeeping a log of them.Will let you know how I'm going.
hi Pat, try adding a 5th m8, it ,s not that much more dificult, then in time u will be able to play 6.... trust me. i.m up to 9 atm and slowly adding 10 & 11. it seems fast to start with but your brain will soon catch up and you will look back in a months time and think what was all the fuss about. JingleMa is playing 12/15 atm and looking 2 increase to 18 when he gets his 2nd monitor, so as u can see,you can always add more. best wishes buddy, :-) dev
I notice a few people are mentioning your C4P's and this is good. The new widget thingy is great for showing us exactly where we are up to. Your CASH4P's is there, can't be taken away from you and just waiting for you to scoop it all up at the end of the month. It also shows your reward for all your hard work and dedication so it wouldn't be wrong for you to be now including this ever-increasing figure as part of your bankroll. Just a thought to help keep up your motivation ......
Dev playing four at full screen, am going to give five a go later on.Do you play with the mini view or normally with the tables coming to the front when action is on you.
thanks Lorraine, yes u r quite right about the c4p building up quite nicely. never even thought about including it into my b/roll. do you think i should ? or should i wait until nxt month,when it arrives & then i,d be in a position to possibly move up a level. also i feel it,s not really mine until i get it, if that makes sense. ian :-)
thanks mike, think u r right m8. i will only play a limited no. of higher level games and if i can get a 3/1 start or even poss a 2/2,as y,day i will stop there as atm i cannot afford to lose a big % of my roll.
nice going there Pat, great stuff :-) as Jingle says mini-view, u soon get used to it also as there is no chat box on mini i find this a big + as u don,t get distracted by them, even though they are good fun they imo have a negative effect on my game. best wishes dev
hi mick, tell me about them. a few days ago things were just so grim 4 me, but played through it and touch wood seem 2 have come out the other side. have a day or 2 off and as u say come back refreshed. i would recomend dropping down a level while u r struggeling and go back up when it,s over, don,t get to down with it, it will turn back your way soon. :-)

had a thought about c4p think i,ll add it on when i get it as it will be a day 2 look 4ward 2. hopefully,if all goes well.... should be able 2 move up a level too, if not b4.
thanks again 4 all the support & kind words from everyone, it really really does help,especially when things aren,t going so well.!!! back tomorrow :-) devon
Yes I think you're right to only include your c4p in your b/roll updates to us following your progress when you actually get it, I was only thinking that you should keep it in your mind as the month continues. A special bonus to look forward to.
thanks Lorraine, yes, i can,t wait until c4p nxt month only neg is i won,t receive it until the 11th due 2 bank holiday mon so it seems a long way off atm. will be moving up a level then 4 sure i think.!!!
Couldn't resist the draw. lol Just played a £3 table and cashed so maybe my luck is about to change :-) Mind you, doubling up with a set in the 2nd hand helped !! Mick

Hi Day4,
Looks like ur doing great! Obv it's only a v.tiny sample but 68% win rate is brilliant and u've only dropped this to 61% on £3/£5 tables so far.
I would recommend mini-view - I'm gud @ multi-tabling on these, just gotta learn how to win on em now lol.
Keep going & gl!
Priyesh / Jingle.
yes u r quite right about the c4p building up quite nicely.
never even thought about including it into my b/roll.
do you think i should ?
or should i wait until nxt month,when it arrives
& then i,d be in a position to possibly move up a level.
also i feel it,s not really mine until i get it,
if that makes sense.
