Sit "n" Go Success Round 2

Hi guys, I've been playing for around 2 months now, about 1 month ago I posted about how I cashed in my first 10 30p DYM's which was a nice start. Since then I've been following the advice of only putting down 5% of my bankroll and it has been going very well.

It was hard work getting there but when I finally reached the £12 mark it gave me a real boost. Now I've moved onto £13.79 playing the 60p DYM's, ofcourse many will read this and think oh a measly 13 quid but when you have grafted hard, played well and stuck to the rules it feels very forfilling.

I had some sticky patches due to bad luck, for example I got to £11.99 and then went on to lose my next 5 which was pretty tough, but I then had a days break to clear my mind and then climbed back up. Although amazingly when I won 2 games to start moving back up, my internet went down for 10 days meaning I was doing good and had to go cold turkey when there was no need. lol

I would also say the main thing I've added to my game since last time is the continuation bet, which has been very successful. And my biggest advice never play when your angry. ;)

    Well done mate, stick to the grind. I am doing similar... working wonders and grinding up and up, but it is hard and you will get dips. The C bet is a nice weapon, just watch out for floaters;) oh errrrrrrr lol

    Trying to do the same as you guys but hit a bad patch (went on tilt then and lost all £7.62)

    But I'm on my way back. Got placed in the Community freeroll the other night and won 88p (Got my chips all-in first with QQ on the cut off and went out to the button holding KK)........

    Soooo..... Got  to grind my way back.

    See you at the tables...

    I had similar trouble in a DYM went all in with QQ on SB got called by AA, without that I'd be on 10 cash streak, but that's poker.
