    Had a horrible start to the session tonight with 1 fish caling with almost any 2 and hitting big several times, was soon 3 BI's down. Kept at it and got a good chunk back off of him, plus hit quads on another table and got payed, and finished up only slightly down for the evening.

    Loss £1.07

    account £149.17

    points 450

    had a couple of hours session this afternoon
    not too bad - ended up £4.83
    would have been much better if I hadn't come across an "any 2" player who kept hitting!
    the best was QsQh v Ah3s - aipf - they get four hearts on board to win!! they couldn't miss. they even beat AA with Q5 after a large pre flop raise and they flopped  2 pair. hopefully i meet them again soon

    for the month up £34.90
    points 603

    good luck

    In Response to Re: *****OCTOBER PROFIT CHALLENGE THREAD***** : Another day that had disaster written all over it took a nice u-turn in the end. I bubbled the UKOPS #2 mini-sat after coming back from the dead twice, so only one week left. I definitely will not buy in directly, but I might convince myself to stretch brm rules and buy in into next weeks semi-finale if I fail at the mini-sat again. I did alright in the OHL tourneys, but didn't come close to cashing. What turned things around were the 2 £20gtd PLO mtts I played. I was short-stacked in both, but this time my good hands actually held up once in a while and I min-cashed the first and won the second after an epic heads-up duel with irishnige. At the end there were 13 big blinds on the table, so not much play left. 2 cashes out of 5, daily balance +£24.90, MTD balance £96.79. PS: I hope the academy noticed my efforts over the last few days to wrestle the biggest moaner community award away from spornybol. I would hate for all my hard work to go unnoticed and unrewarded.

    After a day off, played much better, picked some good tables with no regs and could have made much more if my cards held.  Got it in good a few times to get caught up.  Biggest loss with KK, got check raised on a 557 DS flop, thought they were drawing but had hit trips, FML.

    Starting Bankroll = £79.07

    Day = £0.68

    Current Bankroll = £61.58

    Points = 593

    Lousy session. Only one hand of any note at all. I had QQ v AA v 66, AA just flatted pre and it all went in on the flop with QQ & 66 hitting sets. Otherwise just really dull, didn't enjoy it at all and knocked it on the head early.

    weird session
    2 tables couldn't hit a flop for love nor money or if i did they hit better. had a couple of FH vFH with them gettting there on river. down 2/3 BI's at one point
    couple of other tables treaded water for a bt then hit a purple patch and got called by people who had A or K high. couldn't understand why they were in the hand!

    ended up £1.62 which was a relief!!
    for the month £36.52

    I aint got round to updating here at all this month but I'll just give my progress now cos I keep all my poker sessions in an Excel spreadsheet...

    BR as of 1st October   = £152.78

    BR as of 20th October = £230.88

    Only been playing DYMs this month, cos I've decided to grind them and nothing else for the next 3 months so I can grind up a BR, earn loads of C4P and get myself in the top 30 STTers and (hopefully) get into TSP.

    Poker Points = 969.

    Check out my DYM thread all :) All you non-believers who said I couldnt make any money from DYMs... I've made that almost £80 profit and I've put in very little volume for the month so far.

    Decent day, played mostly ok, except when I should've folded KKxx to a re-raise and 2 calls on an AKx flop. Won 1 PLO8 and min-cashed another + a £20gtd PLO. For my daily moan, in the PLO8 I min-cashed I got good aces twice when very short-stacked and lost both times ... to 2 pairs QQ33. Clearly rigged! :)

    3 cashes out of 5, daily balance +£2.80, MTD balance +£99.84.

    Played loads today and made plenty cash4points but that was all i made :(

    Cash games i played pretty much all day with very few breaks and aswell as a few bad plays on my part the badbeats were brutal and the good hands few and far between.

    Just seemed to be getting reraised all of the time from the type of players you know carnt do it without the goods and was having to fold monsters on turn or river what seemed like all day long.
    Did get lucky a couple of times but whenever that happened i would see some pathetic comment in chat but i just let them get on with it because they are prob just going through the same brutal carp i was.

    Played bounty hunter and ran JJ into AA when short with no bountys.

    Cash games on day = -£497.68
    MTTs on day = -£33

    Months running total = +£2287.23

    Another day another dollar and will prob go back on the tables now to start on todays score.

    Good luck all. Dave.

    What is your biggest single win in a day?
    And if you don't mind telling.. your biggest losing day?

    As a low stakes player it's pretty interesting seeing how swingy even the best players can be at times.
