    after a losing run of about 8 days ( with a few days off inbetween) i am feelin confident of turning it around as the end of the month gets closer - just got to re-focus as i start a new session and not play to many MTT,s


    starting BR - £27

    starting day with £56, although was up to nearly £200 at one point

    Great stuff chaps and chappesses- real progress from most and real determination from the few who aren't having things go their way !

    I am holding steady on £110 off my £100. So 10% up on my new challenge. But of course aiming to improve...

    I may have got a bit excited and 'accidently'  jumped a few levels to £11 DYMs.. it would seem that this was not the way forward :( 

    £94.30 from £100 *sigh*  Onwards and upwards!!

    Not a good update but an honest one!

    OPENING BALANCE = £101.66

    Been playing a lot of different games over the week but not quite getting that extra little bit of luck to cash big ATM.

    I have just cashed in a B/H 12th/120 and finished a very credible 5th/52 in the tikay deepstack the other night. If it wasnt for these two results and another couple of minor cashes, I think I could well be looking at a minus figure. I need to focus over the week end and the upcoming last week or I will consider my challenge a failure :(

    CLOSING BALANCE =     £52.60

    Just a quick little update...

    Been a bit stagnant the past week, only result of note was a top 20 in the Open (got in on a satellite). So my (mini)roll currently stands at....


    £57.42

    Must try harder and sort out my DYM game....

    Haven't been playing loads recently due to uni exam revision.

    I kinda changed my BR challenge halfway thorugh due to getting fed up of DYM's ! I restarted it on £50 and up £9.60 to £59.60, only single tabling so progress is fairly slow lol.

    Got slaughtered yesterday for most of the night, blew a great position in the 9pm 1k, a few ridiC decisions/shoves on cash, my fave was shoving with 9 high on the turn as I had my oppo on a draw, yup he had a draw, and wudnt fold it, his jack high beat my 9 high for £150 on 20p/40p lol.

    **** the star!!

    Turned to some heads up to get me out of jail after midnight - played an Irish fella, who said he was busy studying form, and the 3 buy ins I took from him are nothing compared to what he bets on each race.

    He gave me 'Johannas - 3.40 York' - 5/1 joint favourite.

    Anway from being -180 I ended - 34

    1,070.20 - 34 = 1,036.20

    3 losing sessions in a week - wont look bak at it as one of my best!!

    GL all.

    Yep. DYM's can be hard to maintain focus and stick to the 'strategy' plus I am only one tabling and two tabling every now and then as I find it keeps me more interested and stops me making stupid moves!

    Alrighty then.

    Main BR Challenege:  After losing half of my profit this month I've managed to claw it back, mainly through a good run on Omaha Hi/Lo.

    Main BR Currently:  1408.89, profit of 904.89

    TV Tart Bankroll

    Sadly my social life seems to have been revived this month and I have been unable to play much on a Saturday night.  However, I squeezed in an hour's play and managed to turn around this bankroll a little and move into the black.

    TV Tart BR:  224.97, profit of 24.97
