In Response to Re: Build A Bankroll 2014: next session WEDNESDAY 12TH FEB 8pm- midnight : Hmmm, does limping in UTG with a marginal hand or making up in the SB with 7-4 offsuit and then smashing the flop both times...count as trapping? Yours, not bitterly, Rich ;-) Posted by RICHORFORD
Yeahhhhh totally agree Richard.
Harry is just jealous he couldnt run as deep as us.

Good solid session. I only lost one hand over £5 with AK vs a set of aces on a low board. Otherwise, I managed to river my straight with 45s and bust a set of 3's but mostly I stuck to big hands in big pots.
Will be back after lunchtime....aiming to end the day at least 5 buy-ins up.
Session 24 (1 hrs x 6tabs) -£7.77 bankroll = £432.07 Lost a bit mucking about. Might be on later for another push towards breakeven at £500. Points rewards building steadily.
I,m going to start my own little challenge off this week
I won,t be starting with a set amount as i,ve already got my own BR challenge on another thread so will take the money from that
This will be purely a DYM challenge mainly playing £3-£5 DYMs in NLH, PLO and NLO and maybe even PLO8 if i can learn how to play it. I will be aiming for 100pts + a day without losing any money. I,ll start tommorow and update daily .
Session 26 (2hrs x 6tables) -£11.47 Bankroll = 402.97
Battling session. No luck with any sets etc and lost one big pot after one player called me down with 2nd pair/no draw and got lucky hitting 2 pair on the river. Of course, he then beat me with a slightly higher kicker in the next pot and proceeded to tell me that 'I need to learn how to play the game'. Unfortunately I could only get into one more pot with the opponent before the end of my session.
Another forum reg who posts in his own diary was on a few of my tables and making life difficult 3betting a lot of my opens, but I managed to keep afloat and picked up a few hands to defend with.
Dissapointed to lose another buyin and working a lot until thursday when I intend to play A LOT.

Good luck Paul. And remember, if the DYMs aren't working out for you, DEFECT NOW! ;-)

lol . You must have got sick of saying that
I was aiming to start about 6pm but missed my bus back from lancaster and din,t start til after 8.30pm
Got off to a good start in first 4 games - being 3-1 up and could have been 4-0 if i hadn,t made a bad call in last game 2nd set of games - not so good . lost 3-1
£5 DYMs Won 1 Lost 1 £3 DYM,s Won 3 Lost 3
Pts 28
Gonna have a short brk and have a cpl more sessions
EDIT : Another round and 2-2 this time . Lost on aces vs QQ when i had nearly 5k and lost that one and 10 -10 vs A 10 . Could have been 4 from 4 if it wasn,t for those hands
£5 DYM,s Won 2 Lost 2 £3 DYM,s Won 4 Lost 4 Pts 44 = -£4.40 EDIT : Going from bad to worse. Thinking i,m playing to many hands early on and the bad beats keep coming. Lost the next round 1-3 and could have quite easily been a white wash
£5 DYM,s Won 3 Lost 3 £3 DYM,s Won 4 Lost 6 Pts 60 = -£11.20
EDIT - Another round of games and a 3-1 win this time. very much needed
£5 DYM,s Won 5 Lost 3 £3 DYM,s Won 5 Lost 7 Pts 76
= -£2.80
The traffic has slowed right down now so just gonna play last 2 for tonight . A £2 and £5 and hope i can finsih with a 2-0
EDIT - Sigh _ Another bad bt after agrro oppononent shoves with k6 in level 4 with a decent stack, so i go all in over the top with A9 S to get beat and never really recovered. The £2.25 game seemd a lot easier. 1-1 on that round but another loss
£5 DYM,s Won 5 Lost 4 £3 DYM,s Won 5 lost 7 £2 DYM,s Won 1 Lost 0
= - £6.55
I knew the rake was going to be hard to beat playing DYM,s and so its proving. Would help if i can win more than i,m losing tho
Pts 83
EDIT - Sigh. decided to stay on and try and reach 100pts but just gone out of anothe £3 one as i coundnt recover after getting my KK all in pre vs 68 , but gonna stay on till i,ve got my 100pts
EDIT : Pulled it back a little bit to get a 2-2 round, but still losing out to the rake. I having been picking my games off SS and theres probably some games i should be avoiding as they,re 4 or 5 winnimg players in each game. not quite reached my 100 pt mark but can,t get much closer. Will just have to start a little earlier tommorow
£5 DYM,s Won 6 Lost 5 £3 DYM,s Won 6 Lost 8 £2 DYM,s Won 1 Lost 0 Pts 99 -EDIT - Got 606 pts (started the day with 506 so did get 100pts . Not sure where i,ve added it wrong and far to tired to go over it for 1pt)
Back tonight- playing the main and the mini and then having a crack at the 5p/10p tables if there's time. No time last week, as I didn't finish the mini till 1am ;-) (Thinly disguised brag post) Hoping for a bigger cash this week though. See you all there! Posted by RicOrford
...not really sure how that constitutes a 'thin' brag, Rich
