Ok, update from my last thread. I was playing 60p PLO DYM's and treading water. My roll was varying between £1 and £3 depending on variance and how badly I was playing when last night I had a little bink 
. I regged for the mini freeroll and got a seat in the mini despite my best attempts to get 11th. There were so many rebuys and addons that top 10 got a seat worth £5.50 and 11th got £14 in cash. As my roll was £1.51 it was a no brainer, go for 11th! I tried my hardest and failed gallently. I raise folded on the bubble twice to leave myself less then a bb and I was in the bb next hand. I was dealt the awesome 24 off and................. I got a f*****g walk! Not what I wanted at all! I jammed next hand with J2 off and got 2 callers. Of course I hit my J and won just as someone on the other table bust 
. Oh well onto the mini. I was totally card dead for the first few levels which, TBH helped as I wasn't tempted to play anything. I also had a fun table with flyingdagg and slipwater there to keep me entertained. I started picking up a few hands here and there and hitting a few draws keeping my stack about the 20bb level for the second hour and getting close to the bubble. It paid 55 but I wanted at least top 30 as that would give me over £14 . Well, I cashed and kept picking up hands, my bluffs were getting through and when I needed to hit I did, this hand being a prime example

Anyway, long story short, well shortish I came 3rd for just over £200. I have taken £100 out as it's my girls birthdays in the next few days and I want to get them something nice which leaves me with a roll of £104.04 so about 50 buy ins for the £2 level of MTT's so, as before, you decide which ones I play BH, Deepstacks, £1 rebuys, 2p/4p cash or a combination of the MTT's. it is up to you again. Choose wisely fellow players and good luck on the tables.

I'd definatly go for that!
If playing mtts, i'd play a good mixture.
The 7:15 and 7:45 deepstack games, would be a great way to boost your bankroll.
Very well done chavvy, great story.
In your spot I'd play whatever I most enjoy, & I'd try to make the dream last as long as possible.
You are effectively freerolling for a long time at the levels you play - no better feeling. Make it last.
Easy game:)
