So therefore ive decided to do this again.
Starting BR: £32.34
No targets as such keeping this as small targets, plan to get to £50 then £80 then £100 then work up from there. I think by seeing small targets ill be able to encourage myself a little better again as targets will often seem closer.
I've done it myself before and sometimes (obviously only if you're not completely disciplined) it can lead to chasing that money to meet your target. You don't want a situation where you end up thinking, "if I just call that river bet and win, that'll be me £10 up for today" if it's not the right decision, because inevitably you'll end up down.
Just make the right decisions, keep doing it consistently and you'll win loads at 4NL but I wouldn't give yourself time limited targets.
Also starting with only 8 BIs could be a bit risky.
I suggest you edit your post before the mods do
cracking post Dohhhhhh, lol!
P.S. BT bill paid until octoberr so no worries with that excuse.
P.S.S hungover will start tomorrow
Doh, if Carlsberg made forum posts... 8- />
Don - I'm not a cash player but I've messed around on nl4 - nl30 in the past and I would take heed of what Lambert has posted.
Why are you starting on such an arbitrary roll amount? If you enter into something in a slapdash way, your results will be the same (I've been guilty of this in the past many times so I'm speaking from experience).
Just deposit a ton and make a proper go at this. Stay disciplined, make a concerted effort and you can prove Doh wrong.
Good luck.
Gl to ya don m8y hope it works for ya BUT i would defo NOT start playin cash til ya have 15 buy-ins and im pretty sure ya could easily spin up ure £32 to £60 playin sng's xxx
As Dohhhh says we've been talking on and off the forum for some time and the main goal of that was me being sick of tourny variance and wanting to learn cash. However its meant finding more weaknesses in my game than i could count.
I think the benifits are starting to show, although its taken longer than both i and JJ would have liked. Tbh i think my tilt, tilts him.
At first it's hard as when you lose a BI in a standard hand it hurts quite a lot but once you get up to like £80+ they have hardly any effect on your mindset at all.
I could type my range down here again but I'm sure you've seen it a few times lol, it is ultra tight and will mean you play VERY few hands if any but it also 100% works
Massive good luck mate, you certainly have a lot of drive to succeed so can't see how you can fail.
Stay disciplined and you will crack it.
This helps discipline incase you wanna just keep playing forever if you're getting nasty beats.

So I was teaching her on her account last night and I said we'd just play 1 table for 1 hour just to introduce her, tell her about the opening range, bet sizing etc.
Something happened that has never happened to me ever when playing 1 table. We played for 1 hour and literally didn't get one hand that was worth of my standard 20p raise. So essentially we had just folded for 1 hour so our £4 was down to about £3.70 ish just through blinds. Now if this was the case and you said you'd play for 1 hour, would you just walk away with your 30p loss or would you carry on for a bit (it's not like I/we were tilted or anything) so you can actually play some poker?
In the end, we stuck around for another half hour, came across AK off, got up to £5.50 and called it a night (it was about 1am at this point). I was just wondering if you think this is a discipline problem or not because it's not like I carried on playing because I'd lost loads and was chasing my losses??
In your case if that happned to me I'd stand up and say a decent break even session make a note on Excel obvz then go do summit else but if you've got time to spare of course you can keep going.
I'm in the DTD again tonight so I'll see you there. Hopefully I'll see you on the final table again.
Good luck, TPT ftw.
