I say find a new poker site sky poker is a joke. . Register an wen the game starts table won't open.!! Wtf Posted by zobo996
Thanks for your input - I can assure you if you take your time you will end up enjoying the site.
Small update on last night small amount of volume again ended -35 mainly due to bricking a bunch of MTTs but hopefully can rectify that tonight.
I was not playing very good at all last night so probably a good thing volume was low. I found myself trying to force things instead of letting plays develop naturally and with logical reasoning behing them.... something to work on today.
so today was a good day got much better volume and took my rakeback over £50 for the week. Ended the day +£365 with £180 coming from the £220 DYM and the rest as more modest stakes playing HU cash, 6max PLO and Hyper turbo HU.
Had a little battle at 200PL HU vs CELTICFAN which ended up roughly break even... He left the game & I was thinking the same also as it was getting a little nitty pre flop when out of position.
Aston villa drew when only wins will do.
But all in all happy with today but my eyes are turning square so thats enough for the day.
Have a great night and my the poker gods be with you
Before I start tonight session (I will no longer be calling it a grind) I will give you a fact about me so you can get to know me more and I can hopefully get to know you better. I am a lifelong Aston Villa fan.... rib away Posted by Itsover4u
Well done Danny, pleased to hear that.
It's not an expression that does poker any favours, Heaven knows what outsiders & newbies must think when they see poker referred to as a "grind".
Well done on that £220 DYM win. How often do they run?

Gotta feel for the lad who was "AWAY". Oucho.
When we play a DYM with an Away player, quite apart from it being quite sad for Mr Away, it introduces quite a complex new dynamic, as everyone vies to nick his Blinds, & our position can make such a difference, especially if sat to his immediate left.
4 handed, of course, if everyone is being sensible, it gets somewhat easier......

Usually this is the case...weirdly in the £200 it only appeared to be me trying to attack the dead blind which i found strange.
Not a great day today -£96 playing various games.
Played okay so not overly aggrivated.
work tomorrow so going to watch the last quater of the NFL then hit the sack... night
short session today but made decent points with the x2 promo.
Played pretty average to begin with I felt really good was laying down aq at the right time etc etc but tailed off towards the end so have decided to call it a night there.
+£57 for the session so all heading in the right direction
Up and down the last few days (mostly down) I have been playing a fair amount of HU cash ranging from 50nl to 500nl and I have definitely come off the worst.
I spent a fair chunk of yesterday analysing some hands and although at the time I convinced myself I was playing ok I was definitely making some frustrated calls that on other days I would have spotted as an easy lay down.
The main thing is I can say I have took positives out of the sessions as I have plugged some leaks.
Started last night grinding back up playing dyms and hu hypers which are turning into my bread and butter game. The regs in the lobby continue to reg with me even though some are taking a bit of a beating which is making the games tougher for now.... but I dont mind playing regs, maybe I am old school and just want to play the best rather than wait around all day looking for easy money.
If you want to get to the top I believe you have to be able to beat the best at each stake level and you need to take sensible shots.
in total I am down around -£350 the last few days but the bleeding has stopped and we are back on the incline.
quick update things have been going pretty well up around £600 the last few days and my sharkscope graph has gonr verticle which is great.
Played my first priority freeroll and came 4th for £160 ish which is great... another fantastic little gift from sky. I have made priority before but have always forgot to reg.
I made a pretty marginal 3 bet shove at the final table... I need to run the numbers im not sure it was correct.
Looking forward to trying to qualify into the UKPC tomorrow!!
Pretty tired so time to call it a night good luck to those still grinding
ok so MASSIVE dissapointment tonight (hence the caps in the word massive)
I finished 5th in the ukpc priority freeroll after getting it in ak v k6 pre short stacked.... my only hope being that one of the other 4 already qualified via promo as the terms got changed

Oucho, that's gotta hurt.
Do you know the names of the 4 players that finished above you? I can't find the results anywhere, so I have no idea if they were previously qualified.
Ignore the above, I've found the 4 names, & it looks to me that none of them had previously qualified. I'm not 100% certain on that, & will try & find out for you later.
