Well done buddy. Pretty stacked final 10 with TommyD, Bolly, Macmonster and Ryg amongst others! So to take that down, I tip my hat sir. Whats the secret to binking BH's? Cos I can't cash for $h1t in them! Posted by hhyftrftdr
Cheers pal.
Secret to binking BHs? Wish I knew. Play like an idiot and get lucky?
Main didnt go well tonight........ several times. Tried to be aggressive to build a stack... wasnt to be my night. Ran A4 into AQ on AQ4 flop. K10 got done by 43s on Ks 10s x flop. KQ got done by 109 after KQ4 flop brought a J turn. Ran like rubbish in summary! Probably didnt play too well either but luck definitely wasnt on my side tonight.
Oh and mini first hand started QQ v AA v 33 AIP. That really set the tone for the mini too.
No cashes.
The downside of Rebuys is that they can cost way more ££££££££££ than you intended. Woops.
Hmmmmm maybe should have posted that update at the end of my session. I decided to play slightly later and I ended the day £150 down. Just ask Ivanovic how that happened
Anyway I had deep runs in the main and mini tonight but couldnt capitalise with a decent cash. However cash tables today has been very good and I can report near enough a +£500 day almost entirely thanks to 50nl.
In fact most of it was on a single table I was playing earlier where I left after a couple of hours with a stack of £480. Must be some sort of record
Yeah it was a pretty sigh moment when I did it. In those brief seconds I was like 'Please don't have an Ace.... pleaaasee dont have an Ace'.
He didn't. Just the flopped full house. Sigh. Surprisingly he did take a few seconds to call. Definitely no slow roll though... probably just completely surprised by the shove.
I mentioned I quit smoking for my New Years Resolution. I went completely cold turkey but ever since ive been coughing, sneezing, experiencing dizziness and just generally feeling like rubbish. Typical eh? Quit smoking, feel bad.
Anyway I went to the Doctor today to get myself sorted. Turns out quitting smoking can actually make you ill. Who knew? She mentioned something about smoking that actually masks illnesses and surpresses coughs, so smokers dont get as ill as others might do. Something about nose hairs working again after smoking - then they decide to shift mucus around for no apparent reason. Nice!
Apparently on top of this i've managed to get myself a chest infection. Amoxicillin here I come! Here's hoping I feel better just in time for my birthday on Thursday
Havent really been updating this much. Looks like it hasnt really been missed though. Sigh.
Just a quick update. I've been having a lot of deep runs in Mains recently, however missing out on cashing a few times getting a bit overly aggressive/spewy near the bubble. Go for the win I always say but perhaps I need to pick my spots better. Nothing worse than having a big comfortable stack covering the table then being out an orbit later...
Either way I've managed to keep my roll going due to small sessions on cash. About half 3 last night i decide to play two tables of 100nl for about 20 minutes before going to bed. Idea was to not do anything crazy or get involved in big pots, but just see if I can make a little bit of money. Either way I managed to do the opposite... but left the table a fair bit in profit so all is good
Oh... and im finishing my amoxicillin course tomorrow. Feeling roughly 75% of my normal self... Not sure its knocked this infection on the head. I may have to go back to the doctor... sigh.
In fact, since my ME bink i've been on a little downswing. However this time im trying to just power through without the moaning and complaining like I usually blather out on this thread
Yesterday I was down about £200. Not great. A mix of playing bad with running awful is a recipe for disaster, especially when you are as stubborn as me.
In fact my biggest losing hand of yesterday is so embarrassing I cant bring myself to post it... I'll just get annihilated by the regs.
So lets focus on today instead. I played A LOT better today. I was a lot less spewy and played pretty solidly throughout despite one or two hiccups. Im about £250 up on cash today... mainly from 40nl. Pretty pleased with that, although I did get some help from the deck:

Playing a few MTTs tonight. Heres hoping my fortune in those can turn around too!
Come on, we all wanna see that hand Posted by hhyftrftdr
Ohhhhh nononononono. Gotta decline!
It is one of the worst cash hands i have ever played... and thats saying something.
All streets were wrong. Remarkably I had a fair few outs on the river which I missed... but I would have lost about 5-10% of what I actually lost if I had played it optimally...

I've been playing a bit like a moron today too.
However a 7 hour day of poker culminates in 42p profit.
Get in!

Officially stopping for the day.... maybe.
42p! Imagine how many penny sweets you could buy for that (hang on, give me a minute to work it out
USED TO GET 8 FOR A PENNY IN MY DAY!!!
