just spotted this diary tonight,very funny read and do you know what the funny thing is its as if im reading about myself the only differance is, any money i win at poker i blow on the horses.. My last blow up was just before the ukpc in the summer, 7 days before going to nottingham i blew my whole bankroll at the time was 3.7k this all happened in the space of 4hrs on a sat afternoon . Moral of the story dont chase your losses by better bigger on the next race,just a bit like yourself jumping up the levels anyway keep it going and gl at the tables.. Posted by neil1970
I try only to bet on boxing which I am ahead over my betting lifetime + a small acca on a saturday.
It may be hard to believe with my suicidal tendencies but I actually do ok at poker and recently was lucky enough to hit my first 5 figure score but my roles are segregated and out of personal principals (I wont divulge why) I wont be playing unless I get in this way.... which hurts as I have never had a big live bink.
but we shall see what the night brings.... if i get to 500 I am going straight to 500nl again but maybe 6 max this time
so good session where we were sitting with over £300 at a 50 plo table around 600 left to make from the original £33 at the start of the night. If I were the bookies odds would be in from 10s to 4s and I would be offerd a cashout 0f £810.... which i would snap reject Night Posted by Itsover4u

I hope so... I tell you one thing going to work on 5 hours sleep is not good! Reminds of when I was 18 and would go out pretty much every night.
Tonight is going to be pretty crazy it is going to go one way or the other preety quickly. I am going to have to load 2 x PLO tables and 2 x NLHU tables and hope I get decent action.... failing that It will be the long dark road to 500NL
Loving this tale. Can only wish I could find this much gamble in me to try spins even close to this. Really hope you manage to make it, some proof that luck does fortune the brave. Probably enough degens in this forum to let you take the 4/1 on making it! Run golden. Posted by shakinaces
Haha I am glad you are enjoying it.... for me it is just painful.
IF by miracle I can make this I am preety much feel destined to ship the UKOPS....

I'm not surprised tbf.
That's why I'm such a bankroll nit... stepping up just one level above my regular games and losing a buy-in brings me out in a cold sweat... I'd pass out before I could log on and whack my whole Sky Poker roll in to one high stakes spin

Haha I never put my whole role on the line... I have a poker bank account and the majority of my finds are held there. I am not rolled to play 500NL or 1000NL (not even close) but when you see me playing at those limits it is always from amounts I have won by playing 50nl or £20 hu hypers... In short I take shots with my profit.
The negative side of doing that is when you take a week to grind money then lose it in 1 x 3 minute session... it is brutal and on many occasions make me want to insta quit poker... for at least 24 hours. But the truth is I love the game and when I am tuned in a have a knack for it.... If we were comparing poker players to footballers I would be Paul Merson... Moments of genius mixed in with a massive self destruct button.... But I am a winning player so I consider myself blesse to make a few pound here and there from something I love.
But all jokes aside I need to get home in 1 hours time and make £600 as quick as possible.
Do you think Tikay would be able to get me a buy in from my poker account? I know they did something for percival earlier but potentially to late now
Great Diary, hope its good news and not busto for the late update.Good luck at the tables. Posted by Any2Suited
Not Busto but we did fall short unfortnately... On the plus side from the £33 left after crashing and burning at 500nl we have x 20+ which is a pretty decent effort in 24 hours.
So back to online I will be playing a few big online MTTs to drown my sorrows including a $320 on a certain site.
It was a fun ride and ultimately I am dissapointed not to make it... but I can look myself in the mirror and say I gave it my best shot, which historically is not something I have always done as a person
great try mate whats your next goal vegas Posted by weecheez1
Hi Mate I am already off to Vegas with the girlfriend this year so wont be going for this promo. Although It will be incredible for whoever wins!
So I thought I would do a little update... swings and roundabouts really. Unlike me I have been playing pretty steady of late and have managed to stay away from the higher stakes tables....
But as we know just because I am playing stakes I know beat that does not mean I am going to beat them over any given period.
So I have been playing mostly 11, 22 & 33 DYMS but due to a mostly breakeven run and some close calls in MTTs I am sown around £20... although I have made around £40 in RB.
Breakeven patches are the worst for me I can feel myself getting anxious and wanting to jump higher... but I havent as of yet.... although I probably will!
Had a 4 figure MTT score on the other site to ease my pain a little.
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
Mate come up the M6 and follow the mighty Stoke u know it makes sense lol.
