    I DO realise that i’m just ranting here
    I’m making misterpj look sane

    Time for a break from poker and here too methinks

    Gl all

    Edit
    I was kind of hoping for the moan it in mtt bink
    Short stack just shoved 4K in mega stack and guy isolated with a huge shove. He’d been pretty erratic
    I had QQ and called for chiplead pot. He was stronger than I thought and had AK

    We waited until the turn for the inevitable

    If it's any consolation, your epic runbad is making my playing 22 hours of DYMs this week to lose 90 quid but hopefully get 30 quid back in a promo look solid.

    Hope it turns soon mate

    We've all had days like that.

    Yesterday was fairly brutal for me too. Just to mention my 2 biggest MTTs yesterday:

    Grosvenor £110. Started fine. Then someone raised, I 3-bet, they called.
    Flop J 10 3r. All the money went in. I thought my JJ was good. The river thought otherwise.

    GG $150. Going quite well. Had about 16-17k chips (start 10k). Then a good player lost a big hand and went down to 1k. He put all his chips in the next 5 hands, and knocked me out. That was (my hand 1st):-
    77 lost to Q7; 77 lost to 98; KK lost to QQ; AK lost to KQ; 99 lost to KJ.

    No poker for me til tomorrow. Like to watch Only Connect with my Wife & Kids anyway.

    Hope the move goes smoothly, and you see your son soon.

    Phil

    Hi Jac
    Isolating when you have to pack everything for the move sounds very convenient.
    Not seeing Harry open his presents sounds totally the opposite.

    As for the poker, I know you always doubt your ability when you have a few bad days..
    It's just bad luck and variance. It will turn.
    Just look at the profit you make every year.
    You are consistently one of the best DYM players on the site.

    Ignore eon about PLO8. He just wants your money.😁
    He takes everyone's.
    PLO8 is fun though.

    WRDCFC- No,sorry. Nothing positive to say.

    Good luck.

    Only 4 points behind Forest, with a game in hand.
    Not that is necessarily a ringing endorsement...

    One night constitutes a rest, doesn't it?

    Thought i'd have one last bash of 4mtts with my money from rakeback and premiership

    £11bh - played terribly and got it in with a flush draw and didn't get there
    £5 MINI - AK v 99, obv didn't win
    £11bh - I moan a lot but don't normally post beats. Thought this was a bit ridiculous though. I absolutely can't play poker anymore as it is without these things happening

    Bust 15th

    At least i didn’t make a mistake with my exit hand

    Good news is that it’s my best night for ages
    Only lost £24

    Bad news is i have zero confidence ans haven’t a clue what i’m doing
    Bad news is that i’m also running bad
    Bad news is that currently i’m totally hating poker
    Bad news is that i like to supplement my income playing poker and currently that’s not happening and i’m losing and hating the game at the same time

    Difficult. Don’t really know what to do

    Def going to take a break now for a little while. Honest

    Hi Paul.
    Sorry to see you are going through a tough time on the tables at present, there’s certainly an element of weird plays which have a wtf happened there, and why.

    You are much better than I at the game so I can’t really offer any advice on play, but the mental part is something I’m coming to terms with, not always .. but it does help to focus on what we have to be thankful for, especially in these strange times, please don’t read this as “ He thinks I’m not thankful for past wins, past good times” ( we try to read between the lines sometimes ey 😉)

    I’m confident that this is merely a blip, and over times the cream ALWAYS rises to the top, us fish guarantee that, was ‘good’ to share a table with you last night, sorry for no hi on the table but I was binge watching a series on Netflix at the time, takes my mind off the brutality of beats, it works for me 😊.

    Good luck on the house front, and Harry is a credit to good parenting. Tc.

    Hey @Jac35 dont underestimate either your poker ability or the ability you have to influence others.

    I dont often post on your thread, but its a regular read for me.

    Seeing how you cope with some of the cr4p that lifes thrown at you does really help others to focus positively on their own difficult times.

    Just thought you should know.

    Morning all

    House completed on Monday

    I used to be at work in less than 10 minutes. I now have the joy of a 60 mile round trip each day until Melissa’s completes.

    Big win for the Mighty Rams on Tuesday just scraping past the Mighty Wycombe

    Shown the boy the new house and he likes it a lot. Likes the garden and the fields behind it. Asked if he’s allowed to shoot the sheep with his nerf gun. Said yes obv

    Poker is still rigged. Had a little go on Tuesday night and it was a little more successful. Only lost £4. Mtts are def the most rigged of all the rigggedness on Sky but tried the £3rebuy anyway. Got someone to put 42bbs in pre with 10 9. Knew i was doomed when i saw the 6 7 2 flop. The river proved me right

    Might have a try again tonight with my £25.32 bankroll

    Hello

    It’s been a while.
    Last post on here as things move on and other than Tikays wonderful results thread and promo information I don’t think people really look in on the forum these days

    So standard bollockks from me before signing off

    Finally in the new house. Moved in last Friday. We absolutely love it.

    Golf is back under way and I’ve started the season well. Back to 8 handicap and hopefully will get that cut.

    Still have some teeth left

    Derby looking good for chasing promotion next season. In League 1

    Poker has gone well with the little I’ve played this month. With moving I only really played on Sunday for a few hours. I never follow my streaks and so I was pleased to find out on Monday I’d got 2nd in the £3.30 leaderboard. Less pleased when I realised I had a active 11 streak. Wp me


    Margerat the sheep and Brian the lamb come to see us most mornings







    Right
    I’m off to the tip with more of Mels junk whilst she’s out and then going to collect the little monster from school

    Hi Guys. Hope you are all well. Been away from the game for a while but decided to come back and start playing again.

    I was just popping into any game that was opening, without much success. Decided I needed something to focus on so set myself a challenge.

    Deposit £5 and spin it up to £500 playing just £2, £3 & £5 DYM

    Deposited £5 on 17th March, as we speak just short of £300.

    Must admit the DYM Streak promotion has made it a bit harder, a lot of good players have been hitting the lower levels.

    Anyway, hello to all the guys and girls I used to play with regularly. Really enjoying playing again, I'll keep an update of how I'm doing with the challenge

    Good Luck on the tables
