    Played the 2 £110s

    Roller: had 41k with 90 left. Blinds 600/1200. Open AJ 2400. Opponent peals from a 12ish BB stack. J hi flop, cbet get it in. He has JQ and obviously the river is a Queen. This guy then runs 66 into AA and suddenly hes got 80k. Hello sky bot how you doing must be alright to be the worst poker but be you. I then fell short and jammed 77 for about 15bigs to an opponent from big stack. He had 10s and I dont catch. So yeah decent.

    £110 BH. Was 1st for ages going well. Started playing bad as soon as I went out of the roller. Ended up giving my chips away.

    Played the 2 £24 sats - lost

    Played 2 £22 BHs. FLOPPED THE NUT STRAIGHT got it all in and got runner runnered flush BOTH TIMES.

    Won on 100nl 4 tabling and 1 tabling for a while during roller. Not sure exactly how much roughly £200ish. Dont even know why im writing all motivation is gone.

    Roll £1940.

    In general ive ran pretty good. Just never when it matters. GL Bronx I think you been chosen by the sky lords xxxxxxx

    I have 6700 points. I need 3300 in 3 days. Does anyone know how many hours+tables roughly I'd need to play of 20nl/30nl/50nl/100nl to get priority?

    a lot players say dym`s are good for building up points with your roll you could play say £22+ but if you are thinking cash I would say 50nl+.

    don`t know exactly how many tables but say 4+ playing 4-5hrs a day and play your normal mtts at night think that may be enough

    In Response to Bankroll Challenge. £1500-£5000. By April 1st. £2157 : some chance on this site the way its playing since they were sorry to inconvenience us but they were making changes.....absolutely no big hands are holding up....well....exaggeration....1 out of 12 maybe....absolutely disgusted having pkt kings or ace king pushed all in by 6 3 suited or the like and constantly turned over to fly in the face of the laws of the universe and therefore the law of average...been playing well....so knowing that I keep telling myself ur just being unlucky......for the third month......maybe I don't put in enough money?...maybe when I reach a quota expected by sky i'll start winning.....it's baffling how for most of last year it was hard to keep me out of a decent place money in tourneys.....and now i'm lucky if I don't get blinded out by sitting for perhaps an hour or more without a playable hand...meanwhile at the table the worst players I ever seen are raking it in.....I'm not surprised I don't see the same regulars in these tourney's that were stalwarts last year.....they just quit before me.....I confidently predict an exodus of long time regulars from sky poker this year....me.....I like the numbers and the format god help me....i'll keep playing the odd one til' I can't take the insult anymore......cos I've already comfortably covered my loses and more under a different user name on a different site......

    Scrapping the challenge people.

    Come to assess the important things in life. And im afraid poker is not one of these. I have enough £ to get me through to summer now so im thankful to the old skypoker for this. But its way to time consuming for me at the moment and I have to pass uni. Ive been offered a work placement at the Royal Bank of Scotland on condition that I get a 2:1 minimum in order to get this - if i continue to write more words in a blog lol than my work then I will be failing - for the sake of a potential £5k roll, hense not worth it. I'll be hitting the "cool-off" for the next week and will dabble in and out of games there after. I will still be playing but the volume will not be big and neither will the games. Ill probably just be playing the odd main and 20nl so as to make effective use of time. But as soon as the 31st May comes I will be back properly and playing consistently daily. I wish I could fast forward to the 31st of May because I love poker so much haha but poker isnt going anywhere Ill just come back and give it a real shot over summer.

    Pretty sick... it's the dreaded curse of the diary!! Seriously anyone who starts a diary is doomed lol. I think sometimes I've suffered with my game when I've been too eager to win so I can post a good result in the diary that I stop playing my best.

    Either way, that's all irrelevant now. Crack on with uni, get your 2:1 and I'm sure you'll come back and crush in the summer. Good luck!
