    when you say an amount of money you always go 10 pounds not pounds 10.

    therefore 10£ is the correct way, is it not?

    Hi all
    Im always looking at the forums , occasionally getting involved in comps etc.
    Have no idea how i have missed these threads but think they are a great idea so will also be getting involved.
    Will do the same as i do each month , start with C4P which is £15 this month coming to me on the 6th i believe.
    Donk that off in a day or 2 then deposit £50 on payday (mid month), grind DYM and low stakes MTT and hopefully have something to cash out end of month !!!
    Will post progress as i go along

    NL4/NL8/NL10

    +£3 
    Experiencing some cold decks, just need to identify where the easy money is at NL8/10, so this should be a learning 1st week. I may just play 2 tables of NL8 and see if I can get something going.
    Playing badly in DYM's didn't help my profit for the session. Still making plays that are more suited to MTT's.


    C4P 170

    mixed session last night but ended up £5.89( £1.81 on nl4 and £4.08 on nl8). so up £8.03 on month, points 202.
    annoyed with myself in that I didn't stand up earlier when the profit was roughly double, but you know how it is - your feeling good and think you have the table sussed. this time it was KK v 45 who hit 2 pair on turn with money allin. His range had been super wide. never mind notes made and hope to see him again.
    still think nl8 is more agressive than nl4.

    good luck

    Hit the crossbar last night. Only played 3 MTTs & nothing else, was to busy watching Man C for the 1st hour & half.

    Played 2 UKOPS turbo sats finished 2nd in the 1st won the 2nd : £ -3.50

    UKOPS 10K DS : finished 10th was CL with about 18 left, lost 2 massive flips, didnt need to get involved but was going for the win : £ +£210

    4K 8pm DS : close but no cigar, finished 12th : £ +26.45

    2K 9pm GTD : Not sure where i finished, but min cashed : £ -1.40

    Feeling abit gutted this morning + very tired, could not sleep for what seemed like hours (all i could see was cards when i shut me eyes lol) but managed to wake the wife up for some jiggy jiggy & fell asleep quite quick after that.

    Start BR = £470

    MTTs = +£231.55

    End balance = £701.55

    Just hope i have saved some run good for tonight.

    Bit more calmer today, no big daddy losing pots which certainly prevented any more major damage. First losing over 20bb KQss flop 2nd nut flush 8910, bet get raised smooth call turn pairs board they shove I call 97o they river str8 flush, 2nd AK 3bet aggro psycho they flat I miss flop obvz, cbet they call then shove J turn I sigh fold, last one not sure on, it's in clinic. Much more winning hands though including last one hit set and probably played it too fast and lost value which is a darn shame.

    In Response to Re: ******NOVEMBER PROFIT CHALLENGE THREAD*******:
    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.

    Only played the Rich Orford heads-up free-roll yesterday. Did alright for a while, but a top 2 finish was never realistic.

    Really good night tonight, all the tourneys were really good fun and high level of play. I didn't cash a PLO bounty hunter and a £3.30 PLO8, finished runner-up in a £20gtd PLO and won the £3.30 PLO.

    2 cashes out of 4, daily balance +£11.10, MTD balance +£56.85.

    Last update (2 days ago) had £375.29 on the 4th I played for an hour, 4-tabling NL20 for £25ish profit.

    Yesterday started with a nasty beat for a loss of £50 at NL50, managed to grind it back and more for a profit of about £50, was 3/4 tabling mainly NL20 with a bit of NL30,40 and 50 thrown in.

    I have withdrawn my £30 C4P as that was earnt through last months play.

    End BR:£453.40
    Points:759 (I never realised how good cash was for C4P!)
    Month to date profit: £121.40
