Hello, just thought I will share my achievement. On saturday I had £9 in my account. After playing £3 DYM saturday, sunday and monday it was up to £72. So on tuesday I still played £3 DYM and 5p and 10p cash tables to make it upto £90. So 2day I won a entry to the 2pm Bounty Hunter for £2.40 and finished 4th for £105. Bank Roll now is £188 after paying for the Open Semi. Now fingers crossed I can build it up more.

    GL to you mate, nice bit of profit! i will be depositing £20 tomorrow and trying to reach £150-£200(very much dought i will lol) but try beating having no money in your account, winning 40 pence in a freeroll taking it up to £2.30 in a cash game, then winning £22 with £23 in bounties from a £2.30 bounty hunter and then winning £75 in a £50GTD tourney ;)

    Thanks all for the comments. Yeah I will keep you's posted. Lol Rancid you want a bad beat story. Right ok, 2day I payed £9.60 for the Roller Sat and 2 people will win a entry. The was 7 people left and I had 8400 in the big blind holding Q Q. Blinds was 300/600. Small blind 4800 all in. Ofcoz I call. He's holding K K. I hit Q on the flop. He hits K on the river. Grrrrr, if I won, I would have been the chip leader :(. Now fingers crossed for the Open Semi. GL ALL

    Just finished 4th from 104 players in the 2pm Donkey Hunter

    It's just another cruel way to go out in poker. I had 26000 holding Q 9 in the big blind. Small blind raise. I call. On the flop Q 9 8. I check. He raises 8000. I call. 4th flop 6. He goes all in and I call. He's holding 10 10. River 7 to give him a straight. Gutted :(

    Had a very bad day yesterday and lost £70. BR now is £94. I think I learnt a big lesson on not to play like Yoyo. Yesterday I had 9800 in 2pm and 4pm Bounty Hunter. I went out without cashing. Beause I called 5400 all in with 7 5 suited against A K. It nearly worked as I did hit my flush. But he hit runner runner flush to the A on the river :(. After that I crashed out. My aim 2day was to play a solid game and my own game. Also try not to play like Yoyo. Well it worked. 2nd Final Table in the 2pm Bounty in 3 days and finished 4th. I soo regret playing reckless yesterday. Or else  would have Final Tabled 2pm and 4pm Bounty. But big lesson learnt and it'll never be done again.
