60p first and lost 1010 into kk £1.10 won £2.25 won £2.20 won 30p lost ajsuited into aa
So back down to a run of 0 but at least its keeping me away from the horses and vegas for a little while
Always seem to do worse at the lowest level ones, use to think it was because i didnt care playing for 30p/60p but have really tried in all the ones ive played today yet still didnt cash in them.

Gareth you refer to something I've wondered about having only played up and down the lower levels (30p - £3.30)
Hence my request to Greg if he could find time to report his findings if he goes all the way along the food chain.
Edit - I don't mean "if" .... I mean "after" of course.

Funny you should say this - in more affluent times, I have played £11 dyms and higher and have tended to do better than when I've been playing £2 & £3 recently. I came to the conclusion that once the play gets four handed, the inevitable light shove is more effective at the higher levels, because players are better and recognise the gap concept. At micro levels, players are weak enough that they will call off with kj/kq etc, which is not good when you are shoving with air - just my opinion anyway

Thanks darich.
That's the sort of stuff I was hoping for. I reckon we could all benefit from this month's challenge if the postings even at this early stage are anything to go by.
Lost my 6th one 1 £2.20 had 88 flop 855 slow played it, turn blank pot bet called, river jack, i bet pot again he goes all in had jj, my fault for slow playing doubt he would have folded tho anyway.
So cashed in 3 out of 6 (that sucks) but a whooping £1.20 up

If you flopped quad 8s and lost to a boat, I'd ring customer services :-)

and yes ill play the £110 instead, so it will still be a run of 12 games if i get that far!
If you get the chance/time some sort of comparison as to how the different levels play would be v interesting.

Great idea Greg, good luck. BRM rules forbid me from playing over a tenner.
