Was in the hole for 750 at one point today. Managed to get that down to just a 350 loss.
Tables aren't the best at the minute.
Gonna grind a lot tomorrow. Got nothing on so can play for the whole day. Am a little disapointed with this. Wanted to get close to 7 by now but w/e try and get lots of hands in tomorrow.
4780 C4P after day 2, but it's been a hard grind, and given that I can only play about 27 days this month, and not all of them full days, it's odds against me getting anywhere near 60k.
Played pretty badly today as well, and had a losing day.
Tables pretty tough, and I ran fairly badly, particularly at £1.50/£3 (always sucks when you run worse at the highest limit you are playing).
Did 4 stacks in 20 minutes at one point this afternoon, with AK<AA, AK<QQ, 77 v JJ on a J7x flop, then flush over flush. Pretty tough to come back from, and I didn't play well enough to get it all back.
Playing 7 - 10 tables, which is at the absolute top end of my range, and felt a bit tired today which didn't help.
Will grind til end Thursday (short day tomorrow with looking after kids / family meal / 5 a side).
If I've got to 11k by the end of Thurs (and haven't done my nuts getting there),then I will still have an outside chance of making 60k, and will commit to another week of torture .
Yesterday played some NL100 and continued the DYM grind. Not exactly great, the cash session made me chuckle huge, didn't played great as well as losing in ridiculous fashion. DYMs went slightly better.
C4P now 2200 but as I'm typing this preparing to walk through a hurricane to work, that pace will not keep up.
Ok just had an afternoon snooze after a 4 hour session this morning thru to the first happy hour. Points now 1637, would be nice to get close to 2k by the end of today's poker.
On a seperate note, ive just realised there is no food in the house, this is what poker grinding does to you! Time to put that right before hitting the tables......
i admire all the pros on here.. probably scotty the most.... BUT
if i had enough of a roll to get 60k points in a month i wouldnt kill myself playing till i bled, just to get a few electricals.. id just go to the shop to buy them...
really enjoying this promotion and following the thread tho guys wd
omg 6k points after 2 days?? thats immense.. how long does it take to get 1k points playing 4 tables of 0.5/1?? average Posted by bigflop1
Assume you mean 100nl? I think that you get around 40 points/hour/table so that would be 160.
With regards to the electrial stuff...it is a good promo and has motivated me to play more. Like I said earlier, I was gonna make this month a big month anwyay cos of TSP/C4P. For example, if I hit 60k then I will get 3.6kC4P + 3.6k TSP and the 3ks worth of prizes....
There seem to be 6-8 well known regs going for it. I think that it will present an opportunity for some regs tho to exploit the more tables/longer grinds which will mean that bad play will leak into even the most solid reg just from being tired/burn out.
Played for an hour so far today. Had a solid session with a small win, nothing special...but if I could take every session with that kind of win for the rest of the month then I would gladly snap it off
Going to 1 table 10nl tomorrow, see if I can get to my aim of 500 points this month. Think it's going to be touch and go but I'm confident. More importantly I just want to beat the game though, any cash for points is a BONUS.
iv qualified for the £100 roller.. do you know if i still get the c4p for this game although i qualified for free?? if so it will help immensely to my target!!
ps any tips for an occasional £5 stt player playing the Thursday roller??

don't really know about any tips...I think the best way to enter into a freeroll like this is just to play your usual game and go for it, especially around the bubble period. I think you will get the 100 points, I can't see why not as the system should still 'think' that you ahve paid the 10 pounds rake.
0k points. Going to 1 table 10nl tomorrow, see if I can get to my aim of 500 points this month. Think it's going to be touch and go but I'm confident. More importantly I just want to beat the game though, any cash for points is a BONUS. Posted by pryce6
wins a trophy and becomes too much of a balla to grind Sky. the glory of winning a mid range buy in 130 runner TURBO side event has gone to your head.
GL at the Fox. I hope you hold in the next 1.3k pot you play

Look, just because you are this huge grinder reeling in the points, don't ridicule those of us who don't have the game or BR to do what you're doing.
And I thought from watching the TV you seem like such a nice guy! How wrong I was...
Just 6-8 tabled the happy hour on nl50 and got an amazing 200 points ! is that pretty much the norm or has some alien decided to mess with me ....seems a little low wanted to see if i could try do the challange to.
Think thats right Ben....I usually get 20/hr/table on 50....so seems about right. Even tho the happy hour will increas the tables running, I think the avg number of raked hands per hour goes down a tad as the players are nittier.
BTW just snap folded AA when you check/called the K 6 2r flop and then check/min raised the turn. Just the snap fold you people mess with my head so much you prob had nuffin and owned me
Played for happy hour. Action on 100 was the most I've ever see. Was on 18 tables and on like 10 lists for an hour and then it goes past 7 and snap all the 10 tables pop up and I'm unable to keep up and lkeep timing out and then all the games broke haha was jokes.
Still on 3 tables. Gonna load p the tables again in a min Made a profit that session. Think I'm gonna play til 2am tonight. Wanna get to 9 really so a long way to go today.
