the quality of players on the £11 dym so far that ive seen are complete calling stations and worse than any other level imo. Few on there that are good regs but the others well..!! woggie will tell you he saw one at my table calling a raise pre with 84 off then calling post flop raise when hits his bottom pair of 8s then calls turn to hit trip 8s on the river lol. Cant wait to see how you got on dev

Got to agree with daz there m8, I have found the games change as the day goes on as well, seem to be looser players after 6.00ish. Mind you the other players probably think I am a calling station/ clown lol
£11 w 1 +£9.00 l 7 -£77.00 ----------- -£68.00 £5 w 11 +£49.50 l 20 -£110 --------- -£60.50
lost £129.50 (£1 error)
b/roll £100.16 (+£59.45)
c4p 245 total 2762 =£33.14 to come)
HAD BETTER NIGHTS......LOL
ok, picked the wrong night to move up. lol felt i played ok... not that the result would suggest it.
no excuses,only got myself to blame. i could have stopped playing at anytime...couldn,t i? (i deviated from my original nights game plan of just playing the 1 £11 game & 4x£5 games.... and therefore only possibly losing £33......silly boy.) but once i went down i was always chasing & never recovered.
i always new that this night could/would come.... so guess it was always meant to be today. yes i,m unhappy with tonight but the pain is now over.
looking on the brighter side... i am still £60 up with another £33 c4p to come... so my mission is far from over.
i will be dropping back a level tomorrow... to £3 & £5.(nearly had to drop 2 levels...saved by 16p lol)
if tonight has taught me anything... i can,t think what it is atm. i will probably have a better idea tomorrow,once i have slept on it.
sorry folks...feel i have let you all down :-(
i,ll be back fighting again tomorrow... i,m battered & briused but i,m not out yet.
m8 i know exactly how you feel, the £11 quid ones are a nightmare for your roll if it goes pete tong i cant get to grips with them and played well. So grind it back up m8 which you can do very easily and try again later. The problem with trying to tackle it and when you start with more losses than wins is your confidence goes and you play more to try and get a few wins back ive won 10 and lost 16 which is a loss of -£86 which is quite nasty really and my br is £400 and it hurt, especialy if you worked hard at the lower levels. But as you said you gave it a bash and thats all you can do to progress, stick to your plan and dont try and play catch up and things will go well. But im sure you know that you have a talent for these so keep on grindin m8 stick with the £5 dyms when your back up and start next month off up a level.
Was going to say chin up devon, but I know it's unnecessary from your posts. These things happen mate (unfortunately). I know you will bounce back from this you have the best temperament/attitude possible. Tomorrow is another day mate.
i`ve been reading your thread everyday its a good read also devon so just keep what your doing m8 everyone goes on a downswing but you don`t need me to tell you.
gl on gettin back on winning ways tomorrow know you can do it buddy
sorry folks...feel i have let you all down Posted by devonfish5
not all m8 - not at all
you may feel you have let yourself done with some Bankroll indiscipline - but we all have done it (and continue to do so) - and it is just unfortunate you hit the downswing as you stepped up a level.
but we have every confidence that you will retrench and grind back up - thus demonstrating how even after hitting a nasty bad patch it is possible to win if one applies oneself - and you have certainly done that before and for sure will do so again
Just wanted to reiterate (as forgot earlier) that you haven't let anyone down mate not at all. We're just here to support you on this great journey that you're letting us be part of. I think we all admire your refreshing attitude towards the game.
Anyway, thought this hand might lift your spirits a bit mate. In the hand I have the original raiser down as very weak and the callers the same. Of course, if I know just how weak they are, I never make this move as the outcome is pretty frightful to say the least. Oh, by the way, have a guess what stakes this is.
Dont be so daft Devon,, you have the balls to type up your loss and take it on the chin, yes bankroll management went awry, yes maybe your challenge was a tough one. But what you didnt do was slink away and let the diary drop off the page, you faced up to it, you will sleep on it, it WILL look more realistic tomorrow when you realise just how well you have done so far, what ROI have you achieved in this short time ?, what amount of experience have you gained ? Brush yourself down, get some perspectve but dont you ever feel you have let anyone down. You have the balls to try, more than most, myself probably included...
take a look at my sharkscope graph & you will see that exactly the same thing happened to me on sunday I fell off the edge of the cliff, like I said in my thread I was having a bad day on the £5.50 tables & made matters worse by going onto the £11 tables (losses on there really hurt) & that is not the way either of us are with bankroll management but we all do it sometimes.
From what I saw of your play last night m8 most of your calls were good you just ended up in horrid spots that no one would get away from.
Get back in your "comfort zone", build it up again m8 you have the game to do it. But no more of this "letting anyone down rubbish" you feel mad with yourself, but days like that will only make your resolve to succeed the greater, and you will for sure.
THANKYOU ALL GUYS 4 THE NICE POSTS AND SUPPORT....
THEY ARE ALL VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.!!!
yes,it,s another day,so "move on"...y,day,s gone.
it,s funny though,no not funny maybe ironic i think... after what was let,s face it "a mini-disaster yesterday" i really felt so calm and at peace with myself afterwards and even slept well. quite surprising. looking back...just 4 a minute and to give y,day closure, "any regrets?....no i could have played it safe,carried on "as i was, couldn,t i? but this challenge isn,t about "playing it safe" it is all about 1 thing... the end result....,being to win a thousand pounds or fail trying.!!! i have been playing it safe for the past 2 years...like many others....grinding, and enjoyed it...totally. i will almost certainly "go back to it" once this challenge finishes....i guess? but this isn,t about grinding,is it? this is about something diferent...something new....even exciting maybe, taking oneself somewhere you haven,t been before, new levels... new players to play... new pressures. new pain, ouch.
have i learnt anything? yes,obviously..."i guess i am now officially...in the "Daz supporters club" oh how we hate those blimin £11 Do Your Money,s.!!! lol it has also made me realise just how much money can be "won & lost" so very easily. anyway,that,s it.com
ps, very good advice m8. obviously my plan fell apart y,day so it would seem foolish to try the same thing twice...wouldn,t it? if i can get there again.... i will try your suggestion... thanks ranny. :-)
thanks alot Mike, yes,i,m confident that my game is pretty much ok as i,ve said...didn,t feel i played that bad. pretty much the nature of dym,s i guess,they are great to play when u r winning, not so good when they go against u. i,m hoping this is just a temporary set-back,& hopefully it will be business as normal ronnie. Rancid has just made a good point which i will consider using next time, just taking 2 shots at the higher level,thus ensuring "last night"won,t happen again.
Chin up pal.As everyone is saying we all have bad days.Move back down a level and build your bankroll up again.Even with the day you had yesterday your c4ps will cover alot of the loss.The weekend evenings are always good for dyms.I have noticed lately my games are running a lot longer which means taking alot of flips.I'm running ok but not great.About even since starting back.As you know if you can win your races it can be a great day.

it has also made me realise just how much money can be "won & lost" so very easily.
