    @Spike4000

    Holding Ac-6C, & heads up for the win, how much did you enjoy that flop?

    Well done fella. Variance is such a wonderful thing.

    was all in pre. i shoved it and seeing k9 knowing its a 60/40 I've lost so many of this week but when you flop them almost dead it's a great feeling! was somewhat anticipating the runner runner full house though :D

    good effort buddy.......did you bust with bad luck or just run card dead?

    that hand looks really unlucky, how did it play out?

    did you bet all in on the flop and he called it off, or did you let him get there? also wonder why the other two players are sat out, looks a bit odd ;)

    so the mega stack £22 BH fizzled out..lost a few flips. got called for 40% of my stack i had QQ he had A5 and he got a straight on river so that knocked me down a bit. just lost every flip and wasnt meant to be. it happens!!!

    the A5 vs 68 was insane. i raised pre to which he called then donk shoved flop so i called. insanity!!!!!! 2 away players not sure why as was a £3.60 sat. @green_beer

    I've changed the name of the thread, i will start using this as a sort of journal diary thing? I am trying to become a winning player. I study and use solvers and also watch alot of professional online poker players. I want to better my game.

    Good luck, "subscribed" as the kids say.

    I'll be the first to admit my sharky graph is poor. very very poor.In the last 1471 games since i started trying i have clawed back a total of £207.
    This doesn't seem like much but its defnitely a start!

    I play stakes from about £2.20-£11. I also play the cheaper all in sats. I play alot of sats on here. I do sometimes play higher but for the last few months I have rarely played above the £22 mark. I am simply not good enough to be profitable at that level.

    I am not trying to make poker a full on full time thing but I wouldn't mind being able to class myself as a winning player.

    If you are bothered about this thread let me know and i might start doing daily updates on how games have gone? many thanks guys!!
