£119 well done craig! great roll to be playing them games with and enjoying the updates. Seems as though you are on a permenant heater against tintin lol btw great call on the last hand you posted.

craigcu12

as for winning well i did manage some decent wins
this villian should learn that min raising preflop is just another way of limping
so what happens i get the straight flush while he had the J10s

well today has been a good day for myself in BH i managed to with £67 finishing 6th with 4 head prizes

craigcu12

as for my bankroll well it is now £190

bearlyther

Well done on tournaments nice result.

Dont 3x tho after blinds go upto 50/100 minimum raising is best at this stage.  Also when someone3xs out of a 10bb stack dont flat call with q9 were not deep enough against their stack size and we cant 3 bet jam as we have no fold equity.  Nice results today tho.

craigcu12

today i managed to finish 3rd in a 350 BH and managed to win 28 which included 3 Heads what was best was this was my first ever time i got onto a final table.

1281

i've played against you many times and know you're improving.

good luck pal

benc

Well done on your results last few days craig, bankroll going in the right direction which is good.

TINTIN

i see your adding a few tourneys into your game now. good luck with them. a few decent results so far.

as your relatively new to them, i think you should look out for the DTD tourneys on a monday. its 3 tourneys altogether for total cost of £5.50 with added prizes for the overall winner (its like a league type thing with your best 2 finishes out of 3 counting on the night) they attract decent sized fields of about 200 with decent prizes up top in each event for small outlay.
 
its just a suggestion, theres a thread which normally goes up on a sunday with all the details. ive started playing them recently and there good fun. its also a welcome break for cash poker every niight lol

keep up what your doing, its all going in the right direction 

Lambert180

Good to see your results improving, things seem to be going very well for you, keep it up!

well my bablance today is £296 thanks to a prize of 81.10 and 62.11 in the 4K BH which i entered through finishing 2nd in a sat which won me 49.50 so i decided to add the 5.50 which would have been used on a 5p action table
as for my cash tables today
i got losses of
2.38, 4 0.85 but then after a break i went back on at 8pm for an hour before the BH and it was better for me that time although i still suffered losses i got some profits
my losses that were 0.32 and 3.27 but i made up for them losses with profits of 2, 0.57, 2.78 and 5.22.
but my biggest prize today was winning 143.71 in the 4K BH for entry of £11.50

bearlyther

Nice cashes craig well done.

craigcu12

again after some bad luck in my cash table this morning i made a great recovery in a £700 BH for entry of £11 i managed to finish 5th with 6 head prizes so my total winning was 25.31 HP with 30.58 for finishing 5th
i was close to finishing 1tth but thanks to the perfect timing of QQ i managed trebled my 5000 chips to move 5th out of 11

well just before bed i decided to try some timed tourney and they seem to be good for me i won £19 on one and £13 on another.
as for my overall balance it stand at 213 as i suffered some heavy losses on4p/8p tables also i probably took myself a step to far with sats and spent twice as much on them as it would have cost me to just enter the 15KBH!
what i might do from now on is rather than play them sats i think i might be more better to just play in a cheaper BH or some timed tourneys and use them as my buy in for the mains as 3.60 sat is not much differant to a 5.50BH

craigcu12

well today started of badly with tourneys and cash tables but became good this evening
my cash tables got me
profits of £1.50 0.44 0.34
losses 0.31 1.18 1.88
while i lost 25.52 in tourneys
but then came a turnaround and i made
profits 3.21 0.46 2.85 0.39 4.18 3.90 4.70 and didn't make any losses in that session on cash tables
in tourneys i lost19.35
but i managed to win44.07 in the micro BH
so i lost 6.30 over all in tourneys today but thanks to my cash i got profit

craigcu12

this evening seems to be a very unlucky for me.
twice my set failed to win

calcalfold

Just found this forum

I think I have played you at 4nl cash

craigcu12

well after another day of sky poker i have managed to get some money back with a balance today of £222 of course it could have been another great still have them sets not lost out to flushes.
as for my tourneys yet again i manage to win £39.70 in another 2K BH for entry of £11 finishing 18th with 6 head prizes

Craig you are doing great in the bountys are you buying into them regularly now? The level of detail and all the hands you post up is really good and makes for a really good read.  Keep up the good work!

Posted by loololollo

the way i do it is after i pasted my first hand i then press enter as if i am creating a new paragraph then will paste my next hand

craigcu12

this afternoons cash games didn't give much as my winnings in one game just made up for losses in another
over all i won 4.59 on an action table and 0.79 on a nl4 but i lost 4.44 and 1.53 on two nl4p
my hand profits above £1
3.31
£2
£1-£2 4 hands
my losses
3.18
2.18
1.43
1.40
1.08

craigcu12

well after what i lost today in tourneys i think i'll just play that mini tourney event as i might have been getting carried away also with me only really playing on one at a time i either get bored or will mix up my tourney play with my cash table play overall my balance is now £170

craigcu12

as for my cash games they were still ok
overall this evenings sessions got me losses of
£5 £3.24
but i got winnings of
£4.02 £3.92 £8.04 0.01 so it's clear i loose lots through tourney

craigcu12

i did suffer some heavy losses today
how this villian calls the flop i don't know

Hi Craig thought you might post this last one (44vAA).!!
Sat on that table for a long while card dead or running 2 prs into straights etc. Thought I would try and take you off what I assumed was an overpair, but it didn't work. Hey Ho !
You keep finding those AA's against me - stacked my QQ and folded another QQ when I knew I was beat.
Well played  - it seems to be getting harder to avoid quite a few Regs on NL4. I think it's time TINTIN moved up a level !

calcalfold

I think the both of you should move up a level, plus slackalice more like nitalice

calcalfold

Craig why do you not top up your stack?

Missing so much profit when you have moster hands against bad players.

lol, it wont be anytime soon im afraid. kinda glad im at nl4 atm because the cards aint been to kind to me and progress has been slow. lots and lots of 70/30 hands going against me and a lot of underpair binking v my over pair allin pre etc. cant wait to run normal never mind hot.

oh and i keep running kings into craigs aces
