Getting the most ridiculous calls today and having them get lucky against me. The next person who limps then calls an all in for half their stack with K3 and hits, or the next person who calls an all in with J5 and hits need shooting. 4 moronic (harsh, but that's the only word to describe it, really) calls by opponents, all on the bubble have cost me £22 altogether. p#@*ed off is an understatement. Don't mind running my pocket jacks into AA twice, that's poker, but when people play bingo in DYM's, it kills their profitability and that of the person they're calling, too, then it's just infuriating.
Hoping I bink an iPad for my troubles... >_>
£2.25 DYM - W5 L6, -£4.75
£3.30 DYM - W1 L3, -£7.20
£5.50 DYM - W0 L1, -£5.50
£5.50 Timed Donkfest - 99 vs AK AIPF, flop = QJT...Sigh.
EDIT: Played a couple of orbits on an NL4 table, +£0.61
Bankroll: £93.84 (Including C4P Due and £50 deposit)
Didn't play yesterday, lost a £3.30 DYM (Client freaked out and Customer Care didn't want to give my money back) so stopped playing tonight - Might play some NL4 later though, just to build up my bankroll as much as anything. Still need to put in some serious volume if I want to get to my targets for this month.
Oh, and I binked an SPT Brighton seat on the live show competition Always seem to win stuff when James is presenting and there's a competition, 2/2 now
Saw a very soft £16.50 DYM, which I was so tempted to reg for, as it had 2 guys who I consider to be weaker regulars @ £1.15, but decided against it with my BR. Played NL4 instead.
£1.15 DYM - W0 L1, -£1.15
00:50 - 02:23, 8 x NL4: +£1.79 (Was 4-5 tables most of the time due to being sat out on several tables, don't think I was ever playing 8 tables all at once)
03:30 - 04:35, 5 x NL4: +£8.49
(13 C4P during that time, pretty farcical tbh)
9am, £25 GTD (Rebuy) - 32/44, 3 rebuys, -£4.40, don't think I've ever been on a more clueless table in my life. And they only had fold buttons when I picked up pocket aces, pocket jacks, or flopped a straight. Everything else? Family pot, or they can't fold because you don't have a hand and you're stealing the big blind from the away player. Sigh.
Sunday Survivor - Qualified for Monday
League Stars Freeroll - 122/197, Got up to about 6k chips, before AQ < KQ on a Q high board, 4 hearts, opponent had the king of hearts, pretty sick. Short stacked UTG+1, 3 bet shoved over the top of Gliterbabe with AT and ran into someone else behind me with TT (probably a mistake). Then had no other choice other than to go all in with K3 in the big blind a couple of hands later, up against KJ, game over.
Bankroll: £104.16 (Including C4P Due and £50 deposit)
Today : +£3.73
C4P: 255
February C4P Target: 3000 (£42)...Err, this isn't going to happen, is it? lol
He was playing the board ! lol Posted by Dudeskin8
I didn't even notice that until you posted, even better lol.

Monday 13th February:
£1.15 DYM - W1 L0, +£0.85
1 x NL4, 5 hands: +£0.60 - Saw someone go all in 4 hands in a row, joined table, they didn't reload but took 60p from the other guy at the table anyway, before leaving.
8 x NL4, 10:33 - 12:27, 957 hands: +£0.32 - Lessons learnt: Turn facebook chat off when playing that many tables. And 34 C4P? Pretty rubbish tbh.
Monday Survivor: Out (Fell asleep, didn't play a hand, lol)
Bankroll: £105.93 (Including C4P Due and £50 deposit)
Opened up 8 x NL4 tables, spent most of the session clicking the "Get chips" button. Some really sick outdraws, although I had a couple of FH vs FH hands go my way too. Besides, opponents getting their money in on the flop with 4% equity = printing money. Seemed to have this weird thing where I hit loads of sets, but nobody wanted to pay me off when I had one.
8 x NL4, 10:08 - 13:56, 1966 hands, -£11.36 (+87 C4P, including happy hour) - Pretty swingy session - Started off going £15 down, then back to about £5 profit, before going down to -£15, coming back to break even, then going down to -£15 for a third time. Got back to -£11, but was getting tired so decided to leave before spewing any more money.
Will probably leave cash alone for a few days, not sure if it's a good idea to be playing so many tables with not much of a bankroll. I hit about a million sets but don't think I stacked anyone with a set all day, might just have been one of them days, but more likely that I need to look at how I'm playing small pairs pre flop, and figure out why I'm not stacking people.
Don't think I played particularly well either, not because of the number of tables but just playing hands that I shouldn't have been playing, so need to reassess what hands I'm playing and from which position.
Will also post some of the bigger pots in here either later if I'm watching the live show tonight.
Bankroll: £94.57 (Including C4P Due and £50 deposit) Today : -£11.36 C4P: 388 February C4P Target: 3000 (£42)
Jesus, 8 tables of NL4 for 2 hours and just 34 C4P that's insane, I remember getting around 36 with 4 tables for the same amount of time...... Posted by Dudeskin8
It was 2 points per 20 raked hands, now it's 1 lol
hi Evil, regarding number of tables u r playing. i went through a spell about a year ago where i was playing 8 -10 tables@nl4 and simply not able 2 win. i was coming out of sessions level which at that time,i was happy with. as i was making around £75-£100 on c4p each month. i am now playing 6 tables@nl4 and am winning. think it is almost certainly due to my play has improved,but i find just playing the 6 i can also focus more on what each player is up to,rather than simply playing my 2 cards, as i deffo did back then. it,s just a thought, might be worth a try!
as Dude says, the c4p is only half what it used 2 b @nl4 i used to get about 4 points per table per hour. 6 tablesx4 hours,was nearly 100 pts now it,s alot less. haven,t even bothered 2 work out what i,m on now, but sure it,s only 1/2.

Just out of interest how can you be playing dodgy hands when 8-tabling, surely you 8-table so it's basic rock ABC style ?
Posting some the hands where I won or lost a pot bigger than £1 in yesterday's session - There's 34 of them altogether, so I'll post the ones that aren't just standard AA vs KK AIPF type hands.
