Not sure what to play today - Getting bored with playing so much cash. I think i might do a different challenge next month and play DYM,s satelites amd MTT,s but will look at my results before then and try and find out where my best chances of winning are
EDIT : As it was during the happy hour had a quick 60 min sessiuon 3 x 5p action and 1 x 10p action - pretty qieut really

Nxt session lasted abit longer than i thougt. After been down about a tenner i ran deep in the £250GTD and had a half an hour battle HU where the chip lead changed hands numerous times but after missing 2 flushes to win game and finally got aces which got busted in big pot by a flush. Still happy with a 2nd (61 players) but it wudda been nice to win it

Was going to play earlier but after a last minute decision ended up playing at local snooker club in the 2nd week of the Nutz Leaugue where i came joint 1st from 14 players for £60 and got the pts for the win after a turnover.
Unfornately this was the Thursday league as the last time i went a cpl of weeks back i came 4th from about 20+ which i would have picked up some more points for, but the Friday leaugue is a seperate one although you can qualify from both.The points system seems quite complicated for this leaugue. Tonight i got 30% of 2800pts - 14 players x2k pts - winner 30% - 2nd 20% etc for FT and 80 pts just for turning up so got the best part of 900 pts
Haven,t played in any of these reginal finals yet but with that many pubs in Preston now running these leagues its something to aim for as well as our local pubs own final every 3 months BR £175.28 PTS 653
Day 18 - Another day off
Been out all day but just managed to catch the last game at my local- 14 players - £5 in - 3rd for £10. Was quite interesting tho as the guy to my right who i,d not seen in there before and came 2nd turned out to be one of the high stakes regs on here so hopefully see him a bit more and try to pick his brains a bit as he,s certainly a lot better than me, by looking at his stats
Didn,t play yesterday so up to Day 21 now. Gonna have a little session tonight tho. Might play some timed tourneys and some satelites for a change. Will probably try some of the micro sats to the UKOPS as well as i,ve never played a UKOPS main event before (would normally play the DTD but missed the start)
DAY 21 BR £167.17 PTS 707
Played the £3 rebuy incl. a rebuy and add on and bubbled the cash in 5th place. After reading whacko,s thread - saying he was going to be playing low stakes MTT,s i thought i might bump into him at some point and sure did when i ran my a 10 s into his kk on the BB to crip ple my stack . also played the micro sat for UKOPS and played well and got into semi but spewed off most off my chips in first level - down to 140 - manged to get back to 1k but still alot of work to do EDIT : 1 minute later - ran my kk into aces and out in UKOPS semi
-14.50
Bad session - Taking half an hour out before i carry on
On Day 22 - Didn,t play much but when i did play i din,t feel i was playing my A game. Tried 5 tabling but just felt i was clicking buttons on auto pilot , taking the fun out of it and not been able to get enough reads or really think out situations properly, so i won,t be be going past 4 again until i can get used to it.
This resulted in another losing day and won,t be able to play much in the next few days as i,m playing live tonight in local pub and live again tommorow in local snooker club for the Nuts leaugue Also going away Saturday morning and won,t be back until Tuesday night so thats 4 days out as well
Day 23

(Must admit i am really enjoying playing live at the moment. Feel like i,m learning more and of course you get to meet a lot of new of new friends with whom you can discuss poker with. This always comes up as "one of the top tips" - to have friends you can discuss hands with etc and think its a gr8 tip for anyone wanting to improve their game)
Ended up playing in Nuts league at Hendrys Thursday night league - Only 12 players but a 2nd was a decent result after my 1st there last week putting me in overall lead in week 3 ( missed week 1). Just need to turn up now for the other 10 weeks and also aim for top 3 as it gives you 2 choices at regionals i think
Preston is buzzing with live games at the moment with more every week - own leagues, nuts and the other one i cant remember the name off - see a lot of the same faces about and also in the Casinos in Bpool - Preston could do with a casino tho - unfornately can,t see it
EDIT - As i,m playing at least 2 nights live as week thought i,d show a track of my live results
4 days with no poker now as i,m off to visit family - Need it
Hi Paul. Hope you've enjoyed your days off. Do you find that after taking time off you don't have the urge to get back into it the same, or is it just me? Looking forward to reading your next installment. Have fun. Jacqui

Thx - appreciate it
Thoroughly enjoyed it ( stayed an extra night so i could watch my neices and nephew do their taikwondo classes )and no poker for a week - didn,t even miss it, but now i,m back i,m ready to go again more than ever . I played live in nuts league again tonight but got outplayed, but i,ll be back online tommorow.
In anser to your question -I suppose it could be th reason your taking time off. Is it because you,ve been tilting , or losing interest or goin on holiday/break?
Lost track of day number but will be updating again tommorow Paul
