echo what Jakally and GB are saying too. part of the reason I'm doing this it that there is a clear goal to aim for. I just hope that Sky don't decide to run something like this every month! Posted by scotty77
Any sustainable growth model Sky had, has now been irreparably damaged.

you listen to browndog?! god you really are a fishstick
In Response to Re: January Cash 4 Points thread..... : I'm not saying he does, but according to GLifULose's HUD across 4.2k hands he was. That's if that screenie wasn't fake of course. Posted by NColley
GLifuL doesn't play the same stakes as LOlraise, the sample will be of Lolraise on nl50/100 tables when he is playing lots of tables and most likely has nl200/300/400/500 games open on the side and so is focusing more on those.
So it isnt just me spewing money then, ive totally lost my discipline and focus over the last few days. 60k was never a realistic target but i set myself a personal goal of 18k.
Just broke through 10k, if I dont play again this month im 25 buyins up plus around 300 quid cash for points. Im not sure if I need a break or should just play through the pain barrier.
Ive never won a lot more than 1k in a month at poker (best month was sept 2011 around a grand), if I can make 2k this month at nl40/hypers it will be very satisfying, but a big ask.
Much better day for me today. Made between 3 and 4 buy ins. Only had 1 big pot of £100 which I won, but apart from that it was a bit of a grind.
Couldn't get many tables loaded, I try and stay on 40nl as much as possible as its a lot softer than 50nl, but I had to add a few 50's because nobody was joining the tables I was making at 40, so most of the time I was only playing 7 or 8 tables
Well not wanting to feel left out i have decided to post my situatio on here.
Due to having a small roll and having a computer that is ready to breakdown if i even think of loading up a second table i have only ever broken 500 points twice.But am now on a crusade to make it 3 this i will be doing by occasionally 1 tabling NL10 and playing occasional small tournies.
A good day at the DYM tables today: played 37 games between £22 and £75 and cashed in 26 of them. Feel I played well too and avoided a lot of the typical carnage that can occur. have got the little silver star back on ss and am now aiming for a gold one!
Had a really good last session today..... for the first time in a few days, felt like I was thinking it through better, and making more solid decisions.
Must be psychological boost of entering the post-40,000 pts, 'it's all downhill from here' stage.
The only thing that's been downhill the last few days has been the bankroll, but hopefully corners have been turned.
The thread has gone quiet today ! Is it because........ ?
You are all far too busy grinding away. OR You have a mutually agreed day off. OR Are you all suffering from Beanehs Mouse Hand Syndrome OR Do we have some of the top guys slumped exhausted over their computers
at 53,500 was going to go for 80k, but due to being stuck a fair amount and being very mentally drained im just gonna take a day off chill out and 9table few hours in the evenings and stroll over the 60k line

We've all downed tools to help the Bean-man in his search for a mouse operator.
Allegedly, Sky have said it's got to be someone of a similar, or lesser, skill level than the account holder..... so it's going to be a tougher task than we first thought.
Suffered a constant stream of internet problems (suppose 'constant stream' is the last thing that I had today).
Kept having to give up, as I couldn't trust it when decent amounts of money were involved. That reminds me, need to speak to the Wife about something, in the morning.
A non-losing day today, but largely thanks to a new strategy of getting there on the river. Can't imagine why I didn't try it before.

A winning day! I think i've won 6 of the last 7 sessions during the course of which i'm way down, i'm pretty clever like that
I built two 700BBs at 1/2 but lost a lot at 1/3 and 2/4 not helped by that lol_raise fish calling me all in on the turn with ace high and being good vs my 6 high
Went out the bounty hunter in 14thish was a shame and never got going in the sky roller at all before losing with an under set
Had a small winning day today. Well it would have been more but once again I thru away about 200 or so on tournies. Playing really bad in them atm and don't really know why. Think I'm making a lot of wrong choices when 15-20bb deep.
But yeah I passed the 40k mark and suddently it feels a lot, lot close to when I was on 39k....weird psychological reason like retail price points....seems a lot more attainable now so thats given my mood a bit of a boost...hopefully I can run well in the next few days. I'm still about breakevn for the month, so would be nice to end in profit too but like I said earlier, a breakeven month at this insane volume would be welcome.
