Runbad Diary SNG/MTT --- £70 -> £1070 (£148.98)

edited July 2012 in Poker Chat
Good luck

If you get tilted, honestly the best thing to do is just turn your computer off for an hour or so,   or maybe even overnight.   Return fresh and ready with a clear mind.

    Main aim of this is to prove whether I run ridiculusly bad, or I'm just over-reacting and just go through normal variance, I'm probably the biggest tilt monkey to ever play poker, if I get a bad beat on say a £5 hyper I'll automatically open up a £10 and if I lose that I'll open £20 so on until I either get even or bust. I tried a cash diary however didn't get very far made around £50 profit but I realised I'm more suited to SNG's/MTT's, really want this to work as I consider myself to be a good player it's just I tilt too much I need to realise I won't win every game.

    • Strictly NO heads up games
    • Stick to BRM
    • No tilting after badbeats

    Starting off with £70 will be playing bounty hunters, deep stacks, normal guarantees, and SNG's I will only be playing DYM's, the BRM I will be using will be 40 Buyin's for MTT's and 30 Buyin's for SNG's. Will update this thread daily. Need to stop tilting as my sharkscope graph and stats look disgusting.

    True, it's shocking how bad I tilt though, feels I need to get even everytime I lose when I shouldn't have and it's just destructive, because I really think if I had no tilt issues I would be a good player.

    Yeah that's very true haha thanks :) suppose losing is bound to happen as it's poker, it just REALLY annoys me sometimes but I have to stop tilting and I think by creating this diary would stop me tilting and I can just post the badbeat hands here just to calm down a bit, will be starting the challenge tommorow as gf is here atm zzzz haha

    Day 1 (£148.98 -- £78 profit)

    Didn't have much time to play today could only play during the evening, started off okay took early chip leads in 2 tournies and busted one quite early, few off the money when I raised KK and some brain dead (herbie) or something who I constantly see making useless plays obv calls, I plan on shoving any flop and it seemed a good flop until he turned over 108hearts (2 hearts on board) and he rivers runner runner straight, so I load up another tournie, anyway in the other tournie I pretty much min cashed which obv wasn't what I was looking for but was better than bubbling I suppose.

    Last tournie of the day I get off to a massive chip leader, made a few good plays which sometimes seems impossible in bounty hunters, got money in behind once which I think was standard, got down to final two tables took a pretty bad beat but shook it off whereas before I probs would have opened shoved and got knocked out. Got to final table was playing well picked up hands when I needed to, held perfectly (which is rare) got heads up against some guy who also seemed brain dead too, anyway took ez chip lead n won it 1/223. Was only for £85 but the stakes I'm playing I consider it a pretty good start.

    Hand that gave me a massive chip lead, dunno what he was thinking

    well pleased i'm sure. Nice cash, but it does undermine your "always runs bad on Sky" idea.

    We all make unguarded comments at times but please don't refer to people as "brain dead".
    If you're going to post hands questioning your opponents' play, at least exclude their aliases.

    I wish you luck with your spin-up. "Day 1: Won a 223 runner tournament" is a pretty good start. lol

    Yeah true I suppose it doesn't show how bad I run at times it just feels as if sometimes I run bad during the later stages of tournaments, yeah sorry I won't insult them again I suppose you want them to make them dumb plays at times as they're what makes sky poker good. Hmm thanks maybe I don't run that bad after all. Thanks for comments, will be able to play a little today but won't be able to put much volume in again, but I will defo will be able to play loads tommorow after being made to watch ice age 4 zzzz
