    Thank you for the bump Alan.

    I kept intending to bump the diary myself and do a long post explaining where I was, how I got on at different SPT's etc. Still may well do this if there is sufficient interest.

    I have won about 3k ish at mtts/sngs this year (mainly small mtts, I have not played the main that much) Very happy with my consistency and steady graph! 

    I have not donked it on cash, if anything I have probably won a small amount at cash this year too.

    The bottom line is that I didn't stick to my plan to keep the money as i have withdrawn it an spent it on things such as going to SPT Dublin and the Notts 6 max, Also spent it on important life stuff.

    The dream for Brazil is probably over now. Unless i win 9k (apparently that's how much it would cost) within the next couple of months, But i do have some other potential holiday's lined up for 2014

    Watch this space :)

    year to date all games graph

    Very nice graph Greg. 

    You've been winning consistantly all year so you have no excuse for not posting more! 

    After the first 500 games, itooks like a sng players graph rather than an MTT graph though and we know that aside from dyms & standard ones that never run, sngs are 'not your natural game'. 

    So how have you made it look like that?

    Greg - I'm looking into going to Brazil with a mate and the 9k you talk about is way off the mark. Obviously if you're looking to stay in 4/5* jobbys and really live it up then you'll need more money but it can be done cheaper. You can fly for the group stages for less than £1k with one change in Madrid and you can get a reasonable 2* place close to the centre of Rio for £200 per person per week. Local beer is apparently £1.90 a pint and food slightly more expensive than here. Tickets you can apply for online and CAT 3 tickets for the group games are about £55 each face value. Internal flights really varey but none are more than £300 return from Rio with the closer venues being cheaper. I'm not 100% going and will possibly not book anything until the draw, if I do go it'll probably just be for the groups but just don't be fooled by these 9k amounts the press are throwing around!
