BR challenge was £2483 to £3500. Was up £60 last night in the hour I got to play and also got my £30 cash for points which takes me to £2572. Posted by CLIOKID
Huh??? If u made that much in May, surely ur cash for points would be considerably more than £30???

Nope.
Only had about 2000 cash points last month.
Thats what surprised me the most about my winnings last month I didn't actually get to play all that much but pretty much every 50nl table I played I doubled up on. Had a couple of spews but less than normal.
I didn't have any spectacular sessions or anything just steady £70-£120 gains pretty much every session I played...
Ok This is going to be a tough challenge, ive decided to start with £100 and play OMAHA.
I shall be playing micro cash and stt. The reason it will be tough is im a complete novice at omaha, I have played a handfull of tounies in TKO and some low cash when it started on sky poker. I hope to complete the month, with out giving up so let the challenge begin.
I shall try to double the £100 but if i make any profit ill be over the moon
After going bust last month, i turned cash from frerolls into £110, so target was £220.
By the end of June 1st I was upto around £160 and thoguht id do it no problem.
Yesterday wasnt to good tho, and after several bad beats or "variance" i started chasing the money as i always do and found myself on a £33 dym. It was bubble time big chip leader and 3 of had about the same, player a pushes i look at kk so push and for soem reason the thrid player gets involved, if he had left us to battle one of us would have been down to 1/4 of a bb, but he went with a10, i hit a k on flop unfortunately there was a j and a q as well.
This tilted me further so i registered for a £55 dym, needed to cash here and played scared poker, didnt make a raise all game untill the hand i went out trips v full house.
I woke up today with £50 and just donked it off throughout the day ending in the £22 bounty hunter lost most of my chips when i had nut straigh ton the flop but he wasnt gonig to fold his 2 pair and hit full house on river.
You'd think id learn by now, was going to say at least id stayed away from vegas but not true, when i was down to 16 i put it on red and doubled up.
Oh well good luck to everyone else, ill see you at the tables tomorrow once ive reloaded
End of day 3 for me - early finish Start BR £100 target £200 Day 1 +£6.50 Day 2 +£2.00 (includes £7 cost for Primo Sat - qualified for Sunday) Day 3 +£8.80 Total +£17.30
Oh well, didn't play well today at all. Always seemed to pick wrong time to shove or reraise and let people in. Started at £41.54 at beginning of month. Now £49.95 so not a bad start, but could have been better.
Did the same as you last month 35suited.. Well i started playing in the last week of May with a tenner managed to get that upto 150, chased the money on a 33dym, had AA i was 3/4 position and pushed, big chip leaders calls with j2.. Board 109Q K 4.. Made me tilt pretty badly and ended up with just a 30 pound profit which i withdrew.
Started again on wednesday as i got the 15 pound bonus.
Played 2 days and i have managed to turn it into 140. Mainly due to a good run in a £400 bounty hunter.
But withdrew most + put bets on for world cup, starting again on 20 pound this morning. Upto 36 atm and i am targetting hitting the 100 mark again.
