Noticed no one else had started it yet so decided to do so myself as find it really useful and a good way of working towards a goal.

Unfortunately won't be actually posting any profit in this first one as had usualy losing session to start month. Only 2 negative hands over 20bbs, ironically against the same calling station awful player, 1st AK raise pre after limp K93r flop, I bet 3 streets they call down with 2pr 93o :), 2nd AA raise pre again bigger this time A46ddd flop, bet flop strong 8 turn bet again, 10 river bet again call shove they have 79o :D.

Start BR - £414.49

Session - -£14.29

Current BR - £400.23

Points - 39

Good luck everyone :)

    Hey guys,

    Not managed to get much volume in today. Had a PLO SnG with some of the forum regs last night, but it was after midnight so its goes in my spreadsheet (and here) as 1st November. Just a regular SnG for £2.20 and I came 2nd for a massive profit of 80p.

    Apart from that, still cracking on with my DYMs, played 8 tonight and won 6 so my month looks a bit like this...


    Start BR - £197.38

    Current BR - £214.18

    Profit - £16.80

    Points - 42

    I am due £15 C4P some day soon as well but I'll mention when that is added to my BR.

    Good luck all!

    2 tabled some heads up for about an hour earlier while watching wsop main event on pokertube.

    despite there being loads of regs waiting for hu action i was lucky enough to get a weak player to drop 3 buy ins to me at 50nl and a couple of other easy spots.

    +184.23 so far and waiting for cash for points to come in.

    anyone know whether i will get a decent cash for points return if i stick to playing heads up?

    You playing HU cash? I heard you can get really good C4P on HU SnGs and I know you can get good C4P in DYMs

    Today was a rollercoaster of a day.
    My first goal was to get into UKOPS #2. After failing at 2 of the frenzy sats I bought into the semi. After making it to the bubble I got a double-up when I raised from the button with AAJJ, villain played back at me with QQxx, I guess he thought I was just stealing. After this I cruised to the finish. Overall I spent about £25 on sats for the £55 seat, so I consider this a success.
    First proper tourney was OHL #1. I went out pretty early on 2 bad beats/coolers, first one I flopped top set, villain turned quads, second one I turned nut straight, villain rivered house.
    In UKOPS #2 I just kept my head down early and got up to about 11k early in the second hour. As I'm not rolled for £55 re-buys or add-ons I was always below average, but I was doing ok. Then I got my aces cracked aipf against a short stack, a few hands later I went out with a flopped set against a rivered flush.
    Last one was OHL #2. I was still tilted from my UKOPS exit early so I did nothing for the first few levels. The whole way through I was always pretty short, but I managed to survive. At bubble time I was 11/11, but I made it. Early on the final table I was down to just over 2bb, but I managed to pick up chips and stay alive. 3-handed I got a treble-up when I made a full house QQQ55 with AAQ5, and I won it all on the first hand of heads-up. I'm so happy I finally got another good result in a bigger PLO tourney.

    I hope this will be the start to a great month.

    2 cashes (incl sat) out of 6, daily balance +£45.75.

    Thought i'd try and update this thred as much as possible this month.

    Started yesterday by playing 6 tabling NL10, Every hand i raised i'd miss the flop by a mile was getting quite tilted and playing bad so decided to play a £55DYM as you do, which of course I went on to not cash in!

    Went on to 6/7 table 5 + 10 DYM, when the lag was getting so bad I was unable to see my hold cards before I was timed out played 2 MTT's 

    Opening balance: £300

    Session: -£45

    Closing: £245

    C4P: 249

    A break even day other then the £55 DYM, oh well I'll never learn!

    2 sessions yesterday - up £3.06 overall
    points 109.
    2nd sessions was the bad one with me being almost 3 BIs down at one point, but managed to grind up to break even after managing to meet a couple of people whose only button seemed to be allin!

    good luck all

    well first session at nl8 - only one table due to limited number running so went on a nl4 aswell.
    up £2.08 on nl4, down £3 on nl8.
    thought i was doing well at nl8 - then ran 10s in to the monster of 52 of. flop 853rainbow reraised him allin after £1 bet, he called and turn was a 5!. had raised i think 3bb pre aswell. £10 pot!
    so there are similar players at nl8 as nl4. just a lot less tables!
    couldn't believe how few there were and how many were short stacking as well.
    they were more agressive than nl4 though or mabe that was just my table?

    so up for month £2.14 now
    points 150

    good luck all

    Well that was quite rough, only early but looks like being a pretty tough month. Started early dropping a BI after guy played big hand really badly making me think he was weak and ended up all in pre and didn't improve, next Q4 in BB I flop top 2pr against set of 4's bet all 3 street,s luckily donkey only minraised river when hit full house, 3rd one over 20bbs A10 vs 45bb stack raise pre A high flop bet flop and turn call shove they have AJ, last one to compound it was one I might have tilted in slightly and ended up dropping yet another BI. One of those nights I guess also made worse by zero winning hands over 20bbs all big hands either hit too hard or not at all. Been here before though and no it can change in an instant jut need an ounce of run good.

    Start BR - £414.52

    Session - -£35.32

    Current BR - £364.91

    Points - 71

    Awww I thought I was having a bad night Dude lol. I'll post my progress up when I finish the session but unless I got on a decent run of wins, I'm probably gonna be down for the night. Only won 6 from 16 so far.... But I've had a couple of runs of 9 in a row since I started this thread so I know I'm more than capable of turning it round.
