    In Response to Re: *****OCTOBER PROFIT CHALLENGE THREAD***** : Fine day today to more than make up for yesterday's disappointment. I felt I ran really well, definitely on the right end of some sick beats today. Best/worst one I remember villain had flopped a house, I called 2 streets with overpair to paired board and hit a 2-outer for a bigger house. Another one, heads-up with stacks almost exactly equal, I flopped top set on a very wet board, villain turned the nut straight (I made a lower straight) and I then filled up on the river. So sick. There also was a 3-way chop with 2 pair, 3-way all-in and everyone had AA99. Never seen that before. Only major hand I got unlucky was the final hand in the £20gtd, heads-up I got my chips in as a 2:1 fav with top pair and straight and flush draws and lost to 2 pair. Difference between 1st and 2nd was £20, so from that point of view this was the most important hand of the day. In detail I played: 4 PLO bounty hunters: 1 win, 1 3rd 3 £1.10 PLO8: 1 win, 1 3rd PLO freeroll 15th £3.30 PLO didn't cash £20gtd PLO 2nd £3.30 PLO8 1st In total 7 cashes out of 11, daily balance +£25.94, MTD balance £71.64. I'm also currently 7th in the MTT league. I don't expect to stay up there, but who knows, maybe I get into the next TSP playoff, and if I somehow run like god and bink my way onto the team I could be the first member who has a sub-£1k bankroll and no clue how to play Hold'em or Cash. Wouldn't that be fun?

    finally got round to attempting to play again, played 30 £5 dyms, inc 3 or 4 turbo's whilst I was waiting for the normal ones to fill. only played 3 or 4 at once as i've barely seen a computer for 3 weeks n just felt like i needed to get back in2 the right habits / mindset, basically learning again where the fold button is! managed to run ok and turned a £65 profit and obv 150 pts, will be stepping up the grind ova the nxt few days!
    Posted by SHANXTA
    played a mixture of £5 /£10 dyms, then a little bit of nl20/30 late on, tiny loss on cash, but profit on the dyms left me £82 up for the day.

    Month so far:

    + £147
    643 pts

    Realised that I've mis-calculated my starting balance yesterday, and I was nowhere near +589 for the day!!!!!!

    I was actually +246 on the day

    That makes me + 573 for the month !!!!!

    Aghhhhhh, Im used to waking up on Sunday mornings disappointed with my Saturday poker session but this is different gravy!! loooool

    Was looking forward to slacking for a few weeks, guess the hard work is still to come. fml

    First ever session at NL20 today and got to say it's very different to NL10, probably like 75% REGs on average at each table so fish hunting is pretty tough lol. Did have one table where there was a first class nutter had loads of chanced to stack him but he never quite put the whole lot in just lots of flesh wounds which was a shame. Still, I didn't finish with a loss so could be worse.

    One thing that is brilliant about NL20 is the points, I only played 2 tables to just get settled in and actually made the most points ever in one session so far this month, so if I could just stay level for a few weeks it will help C4P no end.

    Start BR - £290.54

    Session - £2.64

    Current BR - £437.63

    Points - 556

    ------------------------

    Another small sesh in terms of hands as again just 2 tabling but much more reads noted down which is good long term. One losing pot 20bb+ TPTK on turn beat by str8 draw, a few winning pots but I think I could have got more in some spots if I played it slower. Again points are so easy to get once in that second bracket lol

    Start BR - £290.54

    Session - £16.21

    Current BR - £453.84

    Points - 605

    Variance swung back the other way a bit today. Didn't get many good hands and kept losing key hands on the river, but that happens in Omaha. Overall cashed 1 of 6 PLO bounty hunters and 2 of 3 PLO8 MTTs. All cashes I finished second.

    Todays moment of hold'em fail came when in the League Stars freeroll I ran top 2 pairs into a straight. At least it didn't cost me anything.

    3 cashes out of 9, daily balance -£0.66, MTD balance +£70.98. 4th in the MTT league.

    Didnt play much today either.

    Played 4-5 £100nl tables this morning all standard apart from one moment of madness v a guy who couldnt fold t/p 2 kicker for his stack which cost me a buyin but my notes should have stoped me doing what i did so my fault entirely = -£119.70

    Played 2 hu stts v my mate score 1-1 but i won the £100 one and he only won the £20 one so beers on him lol = +£74

    MTTs played main and mini + one sat into main but really should play once im feeling tired cos always end up doing stupid things and didnt last long in any of them = -£72.50

    Just came off from playing 6 £100nl tables before typing this and made a small profit = +£51.84

    Cash games on day = -£67.86
    MTTs on day = -£72.50
    STTs on day = +£74 (thanks daft lad :) )

    Monthly running total = +£1969.55

    Might go back onto cash after a cuppa but will put any p/l on tomorrows update

    Just found this thread...I currently have a bankroll of £45 and am playing NL4 6max tables.A few years back I turned a similar bankroll into 2k on this very site..not sure if the games are still as loose as they used to be? Id also like to pick up some c4p along the way but not sure how much I can expect to get at the lower levels. GL guys
