Well our first to £500 race is over and I have been given the honours of creating the brag post.
Things started off slow and it felt as if benc had it in the bag after taking an early lead - however Sunday and today have been pretty insane days and earlier I just passed the £500 mark since the start date which was the 16th of Feb. Managed to find a nice rhythm of two tabling - one £10 turbo coupled with one £5 hyper. I can autopilot the hyper and focus on the turbo while still getting good volume in. Safe to say I ran pretty good as well with an ROI for the week around 20%. Will post a picture of the stats at the bottom and give a summary of the month over the weekend.
Very much looking forward to a night out with my drinks on the RTV team. Especially looking forward to duonross getting the first round in.
Finally would like to say congrats to sky for an extremely successful weekend at DTD. Even though I did not attend just railing the threads on here was great entertainment and congrats to everyone who cashed and took part.
Insanely impressive profit from Nickd to take it down, well played fella. Pretty tilting that the rest of our earnings will go on your extravagent insistence on only drinking moet and cristal when we go out, however it is well deserved. Duonross and thoich insist on only drinking vkd blues when they go out so defo -ev for the team that nickd took it down but the bet will be honoured.
Overall figure for all 4 of us was £1087 from 2165 games (husng only)
Having a break from the Hu grind for an hour or so at the moment and just have the one table open as i'm playing the mini so thought rather than dust off my stack playing every pot regging 100's of all in sats for the megaroller i'd come and write in here.
Last month went well HUSNG Games:1046 Profit: £528 roi: 5.6%. Having transitioned to playing alot more hypers and a bit of a brutal spell early on i was very pleased to turn a decent profit. Aside from poker our 7 aside team (which duonross is a part of and nickd and thoich have had cameos with) took down the league title staying unbeaten and west ham decided to turn into a hybrid of barcelona and real madrid so all in all quite a pleasing month.
Aims This month i'm going for priority for the first time, with the promo that is running giving me an extra bit of motivation. Mainly i'll be grinding £10 hypers with the odd shot here and there if i see someone i think is worth playing at 21s, two-three tabling post work (worked out i need to average 64 games a day average at £10.50 to make it). I'm hoping it will be doable, i think the biggest challenge will be grinding out the volume when dealing with the horrid losing streaks you can go through when grinding alot of hypers but i'm suitably rolled and seem to be dealing with the mental challenge alot better this year possibly because i have an income from work and am not a poor student so money in my bankroll isn't nessecarily money i see as being able to make a huge difference. Preferably i'll hit somewhere around the 3-4% roi mark which added to the rakeback would be a good month.
Having seen how successful the ukpc was i will definitely be looking into going to the next spt and getting involved, still never even been to a casino, my brother lives 5 minutes away from aspers so planning some kind of big night during the easter break.
Anyone interested in HU go to husng.com and take advantage of all the free content they offer, the videos are really good and having never paid for coaching or videos have to say they have helped me when i've had a few doubts about my own game.
Right back to the grind, will try update with how the prio grind is going in the near future.

Not sure how I missed this update, must have been drunk or something.
Well played Nickd.
I'd ask how the 'free' night out went, but if you maximised your free drink equity, you probably have no idea.
At the beggining of last month i decided to attempt to hit priority for the first ever time, mainly playing hypers, having done well and got in alot of volume since the start of the year this felt like an attainable but challenging goal at the stakes i play especially whilst balancing work life/social life. My only concern at the start of the month was whether i would be able to deal mentally with the swings of playing so many hypers and the inevitable -10bi and +10bi downswings day in day out without getting carried away in both a positive or negative manner. The month started very well i heatered for the first week which set me up nicely for the rest of the month, it's alot easier to deal with long breakeven stretches/downswings when you already have the profit behind you. I began mainly multitabling 10s then climbed and played alot of 21's but would drop up and down based on how i felt i was playing, the edge i had and how a session was going. I hit priority on the final day of the month and was really pleased to have hit that milestone for the first time, added to some cash from the promos throughout the month and prio rakeback it was probably my best ever month of poker.
03/01/2014-03/31/2014 Games: 1,471 Average Profit: £0.84 Average stake: £12.95 ROI: 5.6% Total profit: £1,242.
I have barely played this week, but now have a two week break off work (easter) so hoping to still get some decent volume in for the month probably sticking to £10 hypers. Profits are currently going towards living costs/ saving for the possibility of travelling through asia but i am ensuring i always have 100bi for £10 hypers and will probably stick to them as my main game for the timebeing. Vegas is still very much in my thinking for the future though. I have yet to go aspers but plan on going with the rest of the group at some point, still yet to play in a casino am hoping an spt is announced for the coming months as would definitely be interested in doing that this time around.
Gl all on the grinds anyone interested in HU and likes to discuss strategy or whatever pm me and can add on fb or skype always good to hear other opinions and ideas.
