DYM Diary

edited December 2011 in Poker Chat
I've recently had some confidence/tilt issues and am trying to build another bankroll while my current bankroll takes a rest.  I've withdrawn everything barring a pound and plan to turn it into £100 playing DYMs only.  I've done it before and it took me about 3 months.  I've often wondered how much of me doing it the first time was down to run-good.  If I can do it a second time it would really improve my confidence in my game.  This thread is mainly for me to keep track and probably won't be very entertaining, but hey ho.

    I plan to move up when I have 20 BIs for the next level and move down immediately after I fall below that threshold.  Don't know how many games I'll be playing.  The last time I tried it I was putting in at least a couple hours a day for the first month and I got up to about £35.  I won't be able to play so much this time around, I'll probably have the odd hour spare in the week and then put in more volume at the weekends.

    Hi Wilhelm, I wish you the very best of luck with this challenge and really hope you succeed. I will follow with interest. Starting with a pound is a bit low, though, in my opinion. You could easily lose that without putting a foot wrong, especially with the rake in the micros. Really hope you don't though and you have great success!

    Thank you, sir.  A pound is a tad shallow, but I've done it before and want to see if I can do it again.
