    Okay so have now got the time to keep updating this thread. Sunday was not the best day for me, qualified through a sat (second attempt) into the primo but went out pretty early, through my own bad play, but i think the was an element of bad luck involved there too! I then played another £22 BH and had another good result, coming third for £101 :)

    Monday was a bad day, it was a day where i really shouldnt of been playing due to various reasons but went for it anyway, i ended up playing 6 tournaments (7.15 deepie, 7.30 omahartigan BH, 7.45 cheapstack, 8pm main, 8.30 TOTTY and the 9pm TSP classic. I only cashed in 2 of these and made a £13 pound loss out of the day, which wasnt so bad considering. 

    Il post some hands up and see what you guys think :) My profit has in fact increased since my last session.


    Profit.... £203.83    Im interested to see how my results will differ when i dont have university and a girlfriend that obviously limit my time to play.

    Okay so this is where my primo basically went down the drain. I knew the sharks range was very very wide so saw this as a chance of doubling back up, but maybe it was the wrong move, i still feel asif it was a bit unlucky but who knows.

    Good luck with this wacko...I will be following it with interest . You are lethal when you have a good stack.I heard a rumour from Tikay that there were a few pots you didnt raise last week! Seriously I would like to know the percentage of pots you raise preflop.

    Correct, Tony, & I got it checked out - apparently he had disconnected.

    I think "RAISE" is the only word he knows.

    Can you imagine him getting married, & he's at the Alter in the Chruch, & the Vicar bloke says....
     
    and Wacko, do you take this woman to be your wife?

    RAISE

    In sickness & in health?

    RAISE

    For richer or poorer?

    I iz gonna 4 bet

    Till death do us part

    ALL-IN

    Thoughts on this please? I think my limp pre was poor, i think my call of the re raise pre was poor. However, i had raised with KJ a few hands before and got a re shove which i couldnt call, so didnt want to risk the same thing happening again, hence the limp. The bet on the flop puzzled me, 1200 was the minimum into the pot, i though it represented stength but  didnt put him on aces, maybe 10s or 9s. Then with the Q coming i bet it strong, if only i had used my brain...

    And in case someone gets whooshed.....

    I've never met Wacko, probz never will, but I love the way he works at his game, he's amongst the most improved young players on Sky Poker (& there are a few of them) & he plays the game in exactly the right spirit. Top, top, bloke, imo.

    I hope he wins the world.

    RAISE

    I shall be attending an spt in the very near future, so i fear that it is very possible that our paths may cross! :) And thank you for your kind words, still a lot of work to do yet though! As you can see by my posted hands! 

    Btw i do have a rather good sense of humour, so pretty much any joke about me will get a laugh out of me so dont hold back :)

    RAISE FTW!

    Wacko limp/calling from the sb with KQ!!!!

    y?

    Ahhhh just seen the explanation below the hand. Thought you might have a read or something, limp to induce then shove over the top?

    UL to run into aces bvb like that,

    I bet that was the first sb you hadn't raised when un-opened too, and the guy has aces, rubbing his hands together thinking THIS TIME!!!

    And u limp! lol.

    Once you get to the turn, you go broke.

    But was weird how you got there, his bet on the flop was clearly to induce you're usual raise, wd for smelling a rat, not sure what else you can do though, can't rly fold for a min bet on that flop?

    Pre flop.....make your normal raise I guess, and go from there.

    Hi Dave,

    Could you tell us how much you started your BR with and how much you are up overall so far on Sky? I think your rise through the MTT's has been an inspiration to us all and I do respect your game (but not your shoves on me, obv!). If you do not wish to state specific amounts, no problem, but give some ball park figures or %'s if you wish.
    One more thing.....you got any piccys of the g/f? :))

    Cheers,

    Alan

    Wacko - I've had an idea. Do NOT answer that Q from Alan - YET.

    I've sent you a PM.

    Might be a daft idea, but you never know......

    Whatever the figure is, at least £70 of it came directly from my bankroll, via 7x HU sngs in like half an hour.

    I didn't know what to do.

    Brutal.

    That £70 must have gotten me a 0.001% stake in the wackster surely.

    Skope ftw btw.
