I always feel when I try to sat into an event that I am prepared/rolled to play for then I will set a % of BI to invest in sats. If no joy then I will BI or if I go above that % then that is that. As for you, you are professional so if its something you realy want to play then do it, you only get so mant shots at that 'big' score and you have the perfect oppertunity to 'invest' that promo money you have won as it was something that you got from just playing your normal games. Best of luck. Posted by CraigSG1
Hi craig thanks for the advice. Yeah i like the idea oh having a % of the buy in for the sats then i either buy in on that amount or just stop and yeah that promo is kind of like free money. So just going to have a think about it this week then make a decison.
Hi all as you can see a very solid start to the week 3 nice + days on Dym's. My biggest winning month this year was £3349 in July so if i dont beat that this month I will be disapointed and I would really like to hit a + £4k month so there my little targets to end the month lets see if we can acheive them.
One option would be to set aside any money over a certain amount for a MTT shot fund. Say anything above £2k a month gets set aside and you use that for bigger comps, whether it be roller, UKOPS HR or sats for a £1k etc. That way your not risking your wage and you have some chances of big money. You can obviously use some of your shot fund and sell some if you want. Given you play DYMs I would have thought you would be able to sat into a lot of stuff on the cheap.

Hi Bates yeah i like that idea putting money aside for bigger comps etc. On Monday im going to try and again for some more sats into the 500wpt £200 Budget if i fail im going to give the tourney a miss.
Hi all hope your all had a good weekend. So over the last 4 days we grinded a solid profit of + £217 on Dym's on course to have my best month on Dym's ever best at the minute is + £1757 in August. Played some tourney's on sky saturday and last nite as UKOPS is just round the corner no FT'S but did manage to sat into the roller but sadly go knocked out 5 off the money KK>A10 gg enjoyed the tourney's thou so really looking forward to giving UKOPS a good go. As Im pretty happy with how my month is going I decided to flick in the sunday millon on stars and some other tourney's and we also flicked in another $109 for the WPT500 as they were 50 seats GTD but we just missed out coming 70th. So this week I'm just going to be grinding my Dym's I mite go DTD friday nite and play some £1/£2 cash and then mite be going to play the WPT500 on Sunday.
Hi all hope your having a good week ? Thanks for the comments Donttelmum. So ive had a really solid start to the week 3 + days on Dym's making + £433 and then we took another shot on Monday for the WPT500 as DTD where doing 50 seats GTD had 2 bullets but we finally got a seat after all my attempts it cost me £541 wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii - £14 discount obvioulsy i would of liked to of got it for a lot cheaper but were In now and there's not many £1m GTD tourneys for £500 so it was a tourney i was always looking to play. Two more days online and then i will head to Nottingham Saturday to play day1 of the WPT500 and then that's October done.
Well done, and good luck in Nottingham. Always enjoy reading the thread. Have you found doing the thread has focussed the mind or been a distraction? Wondered if you had plans to keep thread going next year as well? Posted by Brrrrrrr
Hi ya Brrrrrr thanks for your kind comments really do appreciate it. Hmmm obvioulsy i really put my self out there by doing this diary setting my targets etc but it has really focused me and kept my game really tight and disclipned. It's the best year i've had so the diary is defiantly helping and yeah I think I will do another year.

Ive just finsished a 14 hour grind on Dym's 8-12 tabling it was the last day of Priority Daily points race so with it being double points on all Sng's I thought I would try smash in a big points day so i played 272 games £5-£55 levels and i got 8755 with a small profit of + £7. Wow what a grind that was the longest ive done only breaks i had was nipping to the toliet most points ive ever made in 1 day so I'm hoping that was enough to win the £250 1st prize for most points in the day. So I'm going to get some sleep now as im going to play the WPT500 at DTD 2morrow playing the 5.00pm flght.

FML it is £550 so only a £9 discount.
Also, when DTM says he respects the grind ethic you know your doing well!
