    Nice to see you want to post a hand on here when i was playing on tilt.  That is not how i play im sure everyone has done crazy things before when on tilt.

    Yea mate the reason why i dont play the mini is because the chances of winning both are very slim indeed and its hard to get motivated for me to play in the mini

    At this early stage of your pro career, I think you need to understand why you find it hard to get motivated to play the mini.

    Like any job, poker needs to be fun and provide satisfaction, if you only want the kicks of higher stake mtt's, your bankroll is going to be under pressure sooner than later.

    I think you would benefit from reading through this thread a few times, including your own comments, try to continually analyse not only your play at the tables but your thought process as to how you can realistically achieve your minimum goals and this shouldn't include binking the odd main event.

    Though saying all that I note you are currently sitting in 17th in tonight's main event and such is poker you'll probably go and take it down!

    Good luck to you, just be aware of the consequences of your actions.

    In Response to Re: Going Pro [Bearlyther's Diary] : Said hand posted above - your play is full of bluster - a bit like your posts imo.  I checked HH and I played 5 of last 20 hands not counting 2 hands which were folded to my bb. The five hands included AA and AK and although 5/20 may be slightly above average it is hardly "... played every hand with any 2..." Your diary is similar to Adrian Mole's - fiction.

    A wise man once said, listen and you will hear, Learn and you will become wise and rich with knowledge, speak and you may pass on that wisdom you have learned! Do none of these things and just speak! you will just become old and poor, deaf blind, dumb and none the wiser.

    solack raise calls 9To makes a straight SHOCK

    I think it's pretty poor form to post up a hh of the OP playing bad/losing vs you and intentionally trying to make him look bad. But thanks for your fantastic contribution to the thread and genuine advice for Bearlyther.

    Its ur money bearlythere, hit and run as much as you like, but you will eventually get 0 action, 0 respect, and poss a smack if ever seen live, lmao i hope this does not happen as 2 wrongs dont make a right, but giving you friendly warning.

    Maybe the guy wasnt hit n running, maybe he was table selecting. He cant use his money how he wants on the tables.

    And posting HHs to try and make the guy look bad is pathetic.

    Spad3s, he was hit and running (and has done it multiple times) and has openly admitted it.

    In a sense, it's your money and you can do what you want with it, but getting lucky and hit n running is not a winning strategy for someone who wants to go pro and make money long term.

    Ok 1st off with regards to the hit and run i was playing well above my roll and honestely didnt know this was considered bas etiquette until now so apolagise if this caused any offense to you and yes i know this is not a winning strategy more like taking a small shot.  I have finally got my head around everything said on here and decided to take things serious.  I will be playing my last 2 hours of cash on sky right now between 1 and 2 then i will never play cash on here again unless i have a serious roll.  yesterday i was playing 50nl 100 nl 100 nl cash.  Was looking good for a run in the main late on but busted out when i made a move with k10.  So i have finally got my fix of the bigger games and time to settle down.

    Profit yesterday: -£30.17
    Bankroll: £2680.11
    C4P: 3304 (£46.26)

    I try to be polite and hardly ever get hot under the collar but well done for rubbing me up the wrong way yesterday, not many people do that to me....  now this is a polite message and hopefully you get the point as you clearly didnt understand yesterday..... You can sit/block my hu games for as long as like but I will not give you any action your equitte stinks and the fact you didnt know what you were doing is BS......Good luck ....

    I think we should just leave him to it now. We have tried to give good advice but I think it's falling on deaf ears (Which shows by the highlighted area as he is still planning on playing more cash). Keep having a dig isn't helping anyone.

    Goodluck with it, but I think you will look back on this thread 2 - 3 months down the line and wish you had listened.
