Welcome back Ian I hope you're not rusty, looking at only £33 in your account must be a bit scary. I'm sure you'll be fine once you get some upwards momentum going, good luck. Posted by GaryQQQ
Thanks Gary,
I am a bit rusty mate... struggling on just 9 tables at the moment
yes as you know it's the start that is always the tricky bit.
GL dev I auctually found 5.50s a little easier dunno why. But BRM is the key as last week I had a horrible session and lost around 10 in a row. As you already know 1.15 and 2.25 eat the rake. Posted by stuarty117
Hi mate,
yes it's a real killer when those bad runs come along, isn't it.
stick with it, even dropping down to the £3's is never a bad thing.
funny old game at times dym's, i crushed the £3's last time out, but never made the same impact at the £5 level.
if and it's if i play them again, i'll deffo be playing way less tables than last time, maybe just 1 or 2.
only problem is i am so used to multi-tabling now, it is hard to break the habit.

Yes. I keep hearing about that. You should try playing with a very limited BR Like I have got just shy of £11 which I'm using to play the 60p DYM's.
However, even still I get 40p profit for each "Cash/Win" so I still feel I can build a BR at this level, I am sure that Devonfish can do the same!

Well I couldn't, I played a right few 30p, 60p, 1.15 dyms and couldn't make money at them.
Now even with my bad run last week I have a healthy profit from 5.50s, ok profit at 3s and 2s.
Rake it just too much on this site at micro stakes.
I hovered around a £50 BR for a long while then just decided to try 2.25s and 3.30s and never looked back.

Hi mate,
yes it is possible to beat the 60p level, i did start there...for a day or so
I also used the 60p & £1 dym's to practise multi-tabling.

Once I get myself upto around £20 which is around 20 buy-ins, be a while yet, but not too long if I keep up the form that I've displayed tonight. Im currently 3/3 and my win-streak is four, inc my last DYM of the night on friday & no play saturday.
In Response to Re: £40 to £1,040 dev's DYM challenge...no.2 (current b/r £33.00) : Cheers mate, all makes sense. I think where i went wrong was trying to play too many tables. how many tables are you playing now? thanks, dev Posted by devonfish5
Im just playing 2 tables at the moment 1 £5 table and 1 £10 one

thanks spinky,
good luck with it. please let me know how it's going for you, from time to time.
Good luck with this dev will be reading with interest, i'm sure as soon as you get a bit more of a roll behind you the profit will start rolling in regularly.

Are you coming across the same players a lot? If so, are you taking notes? Posted by VespaPX
Hi Mick,
yes, there are a few regs obviously, but not many that i remember from last time, so i am making the odd note here & there, but it's tricky when playing 9 tables or so, as i have been.
today i only played 3 tables at a time, so i was making more notes on each table, only simple stuff like who was limping, and who would check then fold to my flop bet, who was slow playing(i make them go pink in colour), etc.
nothing very exciting i'm afraid, but it does all help for sure, i think.
i think at the £3 and under levels you can play them two ways;
1, multi-table as many tables as you can cope with, which will eliminate variance, certainly over each month anyway.
or 2, play 2or 3 tables and make much more detailed notes on every player you come across, which should give you enough edge to grind out a profit.

Cheers for the reply Ian, Option 2 is my preference as my laptop struggles with multitabling. When i moved over to PLO8 DYM's i spent more time taking notes than actually playing for the first couple of weeks, but has paid off on many occasion.
