    Another afternoon session and another very good one, only suffered two losing pots above 20bbs and both less than 30bb's whilst winning ones (five) were all above 30bb's and tbh if board had ran out better I could have scooped even more in one, set vs AA. This is my current highest ever bankroll so just praying i don't get another crazy losing run, fingers crossed :o.

    Start BR - £290.54

    Session - £18.60

    Current BR - £363.80

    Hi mate. Just wanted to say ive got the greatest admiration for you and your br management and the fact you make steady profits playing correctly at 4nl should be proof to anyone that if you put in the time and effort you will get your rewards.

    I sometimes go onto 4nl and do crazy things with my odd change in acc but the other day i actually sat at a table for about 30mins and tried to win and i couldnt, nothing i tried worked etc and they were calling 10bb pre with atc at times :)  so to win at a steady rate as a reg there i would say wd m8.

    Out of interest how much do you want your br to be before moving up ?

    Best of luck. Dave.

    Poker will start becoming alot more enjoyable and often stressful when you get to the next couple of levels....

    You have to start thinking though (albeit not very hard), dunno if you fancy that! lol.

    Cheers for the praise mate, but like Piano said I'm not at NL4 anymore, I'm a BR nit but not to those extremes lol. Yeah NL4 is tricky but I find it great, why wouldn't I want someone to call a 5/6/7x raise pre with rubbish and get stacked with 2nd pair that's swell by me.

    As for moving up still aiming for £400 before I take shots at NL20 but not setting any targets for when theat happens as I did that before and it didn't go great, This is the second time I've built back up after a collapse so just hoping I can maintain at least now.

    @ Dohh - Yh the thinking thing is a slight worry but it'll be something different :).

    Logged on to see change in account value (C4P bonus) so that was nice but mainly wanted to have another good session playing and at least break even. Started well early big pot QQ 8 high board against K8, K turn run better but lovely as I print money long term, also A9 vs turned gutshot str8, standard. Also some winning hands including a 130bb pot late on 88 set vs A3 who waited till river to hit Ace then got it in wiv 2pair Aces and 3's lol that was fun lolz.

    Getting scarily close now but it could still go t.i.t.s up.....

    Start BR - £290.54

    Session - £11.98

    C4P bonus - £15

    Update before I log off this time.

    I won a £200 gtd MTT wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.

    Still feel I'm running bad at hypers, but I'm not sure if I am or not....

    But the results are good, and I finished up 265 for the day total


    62 + 265 = £327

    1331 points

    In Response to Re: *****OCTOBER PROFIT CHALLENGE THREAD***** : Didn't play much over the last 2 days. Min-cashed a PLO bounty hunter yesterday that had the greatest luckbox I have ever seen. 3 big stacks aipf, luckbox has something like AKJx and hits running K on turn and river. He started 3 handed play with 32k out of 36k in play. Mbn. After that I somehow managed to miss registration for 2 £20gtd by seconds, so only played 2 £3.30 PLO8. Played bad, ran bad, no cashes. Today played 2 £20gtd, took down the first for a nice score (9 runners, so only 2 paid), but didn't cash the other one. Also finished 3rd in a £3.30 PLO8. Over 2 days 6 played, 3 cashes, balance +£21.35, MTD balance +£56.23
    Posted by Giant811
    Today was a bit of a mixed bag. I cashed 2 out of 3 bounty hunters and 1 out of 2 £3.30 PLO8, but unfortunately I didn't get many bounties and all cashes were small so I barely made a profit. Nothing really stood out, binked a few, got busted twice by river flushes against my flopped sets, pretty standard.

    3 cashes out of 5, daily balance +£1.57, MTD balance £57.80

    First down session in a while, mainly defined by one 50bb pot, AQ v J6, them calling 3x raise pre AJ6 flop, standard. Also no REALY big winning ones which was slightly annoying as had so many good situations like flopping set 5 way on A83 board and no callers.....

    Start BR - £290.54

    Session - -£7.64

    Current BR - £383.14

    Will do my update for yesterday now as i didnt get around to doing it last night because i fell asleep at the tables :)

    Didnt play alot yesterday but when i did play i played badly without doing too much damage and would have actually still showed a profit on the day if i hadnt had one of my non believer moments and lost a £400 pot v one of the sites serial buttons raisers who i know only fires 1 or 2 bullets max and was willing to put his entire stack in the middle in the pot in question, but like i say ive only myself to blame for paying him off.

    Played main and mini MTTs with no cashes in either and just a couple of heads in the mini.

    Cash games on day -£127.38
    Mtts on day -£31.46

    Total loss on day -£158.84

    Monthly running total = +£1163.64

    Good luck all. Dave(rentisdue)

    Yesterdays update before I play later tonight.  Made a small loss yesterday, pretty much all on one hand.  Raised pf with AJ, barrelled all streets OOP after J high flop for what I thought was for value but turned out they had a full house... don't think I did a lot wrong just not happy losing almost a BI with TPTK at NL4. 

    Starting Bankroll = £79.07

    Seesion = -£2.23

    Current Bankroll = £78.21

    Points = 163

    was that the hand v me Rentisdue?  fwiw I thought you played it really welland surely part of the reason that you flatted flop/checked turn was to underrep your hand.  just got unlucky tbh

    Another long overdue update, played hundreds of hypers this month soo far not so much cash. Had a good day today, made £149, increasing profits for the month to £347, c4p now 3k. Profit would have been more than more than £400 if JJ aka Dohhhhh hadnt hurt my feelings and called me a hyper donk yest, instantly making me tilt out !
     
    Found an old HU sng foe on NL50 cash. This is why I like playing him:
