    Yep
    Very happy with £360
    I laddered £120 without knowing as well
    I think Graham most have gone out the hand before

    Just a bit disappointed with that amount up top but i obv ran well to not bubble and then move up

    Great promo

    Enjoyed the stackbuilder last night
    A freeroll for that kind of money is fantastic
    It’s a great promotion as it gives everyone a chance.

    I got nowhere the first week but have since cashed for £105 and £360
    Maybe next week I can go further :)

    I’ve managed to turn the month around quite well after being down a lot right at the start of the month
    £858 up for the month now and I’ve made a fair bit in rakeback

    It’s going to be very tough to make priority now. Last night after I bust I couldn’t face playing a bunch more of £3s and £5s
    I’d had Harry all day and I was shattered too

    I’ve got 7510 points now and 4 more nights when I can play. One of those is tonight and I have Harry again so I won’t be able to start until later.
    It’d be a shame having got this far not to make it though so I’ll have a bash.
    Just hope I can get a lot more games above £11 to run

    You get a lot of different characters at the tables

    The vast majority are really good guys
    The Dym player pool is pretty small so we play each other time and again
    Timmy is obv a gent, as is JohnMonty

    @oldbelter hasn’t been around that long but is a good winning reg
    A little while ago he was away at a table. Easy to do when multitabling. I obviously let him know
    He returned the favour last night which i appreciated. Of course it could have been that he thought the table may be softer if i was actually there ;)
    He did bubble me too which was maybe karma. He had the temerity to call my shove with 64hh with a better hand!

    There are exceptions but they’re few and far between
    That obnoxious Nuggy guy manufactured me bubbling last night when a player was away in a £5 by folding to the away guy and limping in and then open folding to him
    It’s not going to tilt me in a £5 :)
    Luckily we don’t see him being horrible on the forum much these days

    Sneapy is another
    He likes to say “lol mug” whenever he wins a hand. Although tbf it’s rare he gets the chance to write that

    I’m out tonight for a birthday so no poker
    Tomorrow i’ll be busy after work playing as i still need another 702 points for priority
    Should make it.
    I’ll play the stack builder on Sunday but then i think i’ll drop my volume considerably

    I have no idea how these guys smash priority every month
    It’s hard work ;)

    Blimey Grumps, you put some volume in yesterday - almost 100 DYM's up to midnight, then another handful in the early hours.

    Impressive stuff.

    GL in Sunday's Stacky thing.

    Pretty sure you'll nail Prio.

    "...folding to the away guy and limping in and then open folding to him...."

    Honest to God, what sort of mind must one have to take pleasure from that sort of thing?

    Very strange.

    You off to Pride Park next Thursday?

    Sky Sports are covering the game & have been bigging it up non-stop, but always along the lines of "Rooney's Derby County...."

    Not once have they mentioned Derby County without mention of Rooney.

    I'm quite a Rooney fanboy, but it's all a bit OTT, & if I was another Rams player I think I'd get a little peeved by all the Wayne talk.

    Massive hourly too ;)

    The night before i lost every £33 i played and most of the £22s
    I was down a couple of hundred which is quite hard to do at Dyms

    Smartly i then loaded up a 100nl table

    Finishing the night £13 down has never felt so good
    This helped :)

    No, i’ve been an armchair fan this season.
    Same last season with Frank Lampards Derby County :)

    I know what you mean but i doubt there’s any problems
    He’s been fantastic on the pitch for us and from what we can gather has been very good with the other players too. O

    Amazing that Q popped out, even more that you found that extra 10.

    What a game poker is.

    Fun day

    Worked from 6 until 13.30

    Played poker from 16.00 until Midnight

    Knackered

    Good news is that I made priority
    Bad news was that I lost on the day so it was hardly worth the effort today 😊

    In the end it was more the challenge of getting there so I’m pleased in a way that I did do it.

    It’s very hard nowadays with regular Dyms
    Without playing a fair bit of cash and horrid turbo Dyms this last week I wouldn’t have managed it
    My average stake is dropping by the week as the £22s and £33s barely run
    One £22 in 8 hours!

    I know nothing will change anytime soon but a small gripe
    Sky crashed on me 7 times today
    It loaded straight back up again each time but trying to click “I’m back” on 11 tables is a pain
    Inevitably I was on the bubble on some of the occasions and so it definitely cost me money

    Need sleep :)

    Had a scare on Sunday when i looked at my account and it said that i’d only got 9992 points for February
    I’d taken a screenshot on Saturday night of me making 10000 so i wasn’t too concerned

    I spoke to Sky and the priority money was in my account 10 minutes later
    Probably just a small glitch on Sunday. I doubt that there’s another site where i could get something cleared up that quickly

    Taking it easy this week
    I have 49 points so far :)

    I won’t be playing tonight either as i’m staying at a friends and tomorrow it’s the FA Cup
    I don’t hold out much hope for that and think we might get tonked as Utd seem to have found a bit of form

    Bought a new Bulova watch yesterday as a treat for last months work
    I love watches

    A bit concerned about my trip to Pisa at the end of the month
    Hopefully we’ll be able to go

    That's why I saw you in a £2 Turbo DYM at the weekend.
    Just scraping over the line?

    GL to WRDCFC against Utd.

    Decided whole bankroll on line at mtts tonight was a good plan

    Came 2nd £2rebuy (KK v AQ to bust :( ) which meant i was freerollinv the night which was good

    Was flying in £33bh but then had two bad beats to bust, took a head though so something small out of it

    Satted into roller by folding KK on the bubble. It would have been really really bad to have called a shove there ;)
    I played the late reg one so i couldn’t take the money as i usually do if i get in :)

    Was looking forward to it and then inexplicably i played like a buffoon (well, even more of a buffoon than normal)

    So now we have just the mini left. Got £1200 golf club fees to pay so winning it would be rather useful towards that.
    Just got to get through another 110 players and i’ll be teeing up again this summer

    Have a strong feeling they’ll be more spew before long though. One tabling is dull

    Ended up going to the game on Thursday as i got given a ticket
    I like Cocu but the side he put out was really disappointing

    Watched us again today against the pitiful Blackburn (Hi @goldnballz :) )

    Somehow the play offs are a small possibility now
    So frustrating that we lost to Luton and drew v Huddersfield a couple of weeks back

    This is the way forward. Playing with your whole roll spread across however-many-tables is exhilarating.

    Well, i messed up
    Got through 100 players but forgot about the other 10

    £32 up on the night so at least that a green fee at the local council pitch and putt
