not even one card could save this villian Any heart on river would of given him the flush fwiw. Posted by MAXALLY
yes but that was because he got his first card on the turn when he shoved on the flop with K high and a raggy rainbow board he needed two cards at the time
Some bad bts there but i had a similar run on NL10 last night-eventually my luck changed - got some back and won a 5 quid tourney for £67 (thin brag) - As long as your getting it in - in front you,ll be fine - GL with it
well after getting carried away with myself and loosing £14 from a positive tilt. their is nothing better to finish positive than getting free entry into a mini BH on thursday

These skills will help you improve at poker then!
Good start with the diary, keep it up and good luck!
Goes to show that in the grand scheme of things the beats don't matter too much. As long as you continue to outplay your opponents you'll overcome the luck factor over time.
well after a horrendous day yesterday evening i managed to gain some back today as for my points total well i'm trying as hard as i can to try and get to the 2000 mark by the 31st i have 1.6K so fard, although i do wonder if i will even have access to my pc tomorrow and tuesday as someone is fitting a new combe into my house and the old heating system is near my pc finally it's a suprise to be in another tourney for free in just one week.
after having a bad afternoon i seem to have turned myself round again during the evening and starting to show real aggression again. on sunday i think i managed to get about 3 pots big in comparison to over 15 big pot losses today i might have suffered some big losses including an AA which lost to 96 but my three biggest losses came from the decent hands. today I did make more hero calls than I have been.
it's been a good afternoon on the table today for me and i've had some big pots i did loose £6 on one but that nothing when i managed to gain £5 £7 and £14 on three tables. it probably was helped a lot because of the no. of maniac shoves done
i might be good on cash tables but MMT don't seem to be good at the minute the one i entered for free i went out quickly and i bought into one and again was not long before going out
well in the first month playing poker after getting a better understanding of the game i've managed to get a BR of £100 and my points total came to over 2K did suffer some bad beats along the way but this time i managed to still recover a lot of the time. what i was suprised with is the amount of straight flush draw i got this month after not getting 1 last year.
the times i had slips last month seemed to be at simular time to when i was playing in tournements so what i think could have happened is i was getting my play mixed up and also entering too many tournements. bounty hunter i am starting to think are much harder to play than others, i sometime think because of head prizes being chased, people including myself are looser and call more often. Twice i've did very well in a regular tournement where i just need to stay in until the bubble and continue progress from their.
im amazed at the number of hands that you post that im involved in lol, im sure there will be one more along when you nxt update, you know what one im on about i flopped the nuts, and because of action on other tables i missed betting the flop, giving you free card to pick a draw up. you played it well with the check raise on the river, which i should never be calling but being a massive fish of late i did. i can prob make some BS excuse but i wont. wp in advance
Good progress, a promising first month, well played. I never comment on cash hands because I'm a tournament only guy.
Regarding your comments on the Bounty Hunters; in my opinion the looseness of the calls made is what makes them so profitable. If the most of the field are making this error it's very easy to adjust and expoit them. A winning Bounty Hunter player should focus on winning the tournament, not gambing in the hope of taking a head prize. First place always wins more money than anybody else irrespective of how many heads he/she takes on the way. Personally I can't wait to get back in them.

the nut flush hand i decided to leave as i was quite lucky, the C/R i did on the river was based upon the fact that guy like yourself don't act scared just because of a flush now on the board most villians i would have just bet right away. the pocket 10's well that hand was just a post that proves the site isn't rigged i was probably lucky to win it myself as you had 14 cards that could win plus another 3 that would have split pot but i avoided them all
Your hand with the set of 9s definately cbet the flop and bet way bigger than 5p on the turn how are we supposed to get value. The hand with the ak 3 bet more oop to around 32p pre and when you cbet the flop cbet 3/4 of the pot. Your cbet of 20p into 48p on the j76 board wasnt big enough for him to fold.
Good read craig keep up the good work, any plans to move up stakes in future? Posted by benc
i could attempt to move up to the 8p when i read a target of between £150-£200 at the minute i have £61 and do about 5 tables at once it's just a case of hoping the fish avoid getting the card they chase.
thanks to some very good hands i've managed to make a good recovery today reaching a total of £75 now my biggest win was that AJ flush i had but i still had lots which didn't need the luck.
the number of decent hands overall that i gained at least a pound were £7.75 £6.94 £4.10 £2-£3 5 hands £1-£2 13 hands as for losses well 4.66 lost with that maniac who shoved with A10 3.02 lost when i misclicked a shove £1-£2 lost 4 hands two of them due to a better kicker on the villian
will you please stop getting aces when i have kings. nh tho. i hope its in my favour nxt time but knowing the way im running in this particular situation you'd be bound to spike the king:)

think how lucky i was myself to thankfully get that 3rd A otherwise yet again the worst of the lot that 53 would have stole most the pot with two pair i might be destroying your KK with my AA but atleast it isn't a stupid hand that is getting you KK destroyed, who knows next time i might have QQ lol.
well yet another hour and a half has made my bankroll become £98 and in this 1.5 hours i did 7 tables including 2 action tables the outcome on the 7 tables were 5 profits and 2 losses my profits were 2.57 1.83 4.33 6.33 and on one of the two action tables i left with12.39 profit as for the losses well i lost 3.95 and 0.69 over all i got £5.22 £4.83 £3-£4 4 hands £2-£3 2 hands £1-£2 7 hands as for losses well they weren't that bad hands my biggest loss was probably

i had two pair but due to the concentration on other tables i got timed out so missed out on a possible good hand i did have to check AA on one of my hands too because it was almost timed out so basically i nearly folded the hand you would never want to fold preflop
well another day of poker and now i have £119+ the tables today i got some good profits one of them alone got me £11 another got me £9 i did suffer a heavy loss on one action taable of £7.06 but that's not much of a worry when i make £11 on another
as for my losses well today a lot of my losses were natural i suffered two bad losses i guess any pair is good enough for some people, having pot bet my decent hand on a board F986 T4, he still doesn't give up his 63 and overall I win £7.77 holding a full house.
over all i got losses £4-£5 two £3-£4 two £2-£3 seven £1-£2 16 times
