HI C My first post on your diary and i wish you the bet of luck. It does seem like one or two guys on the forum have a bad day and respond in a rather terse way, shall we say. If you can deflect that then i'm sure that you will learn a lot from the comments of good players who offer you advce and will probably find your play improving accordingly. Cash, to me, is pretty unknown so i won't be commenting on your hands you'll be glad to know. I can fully understand that trying to enjoy the game can be hard when tilt is involved. All the best fella and gl for 2013.
well after another day of bad luck with my premium pairs i was so close to loosing most but thanks to the killer pair match up and a easy caller while i held quads i managed to recover with these

if it is really rubbish then why do you read it? what do you expect me to write "dear diary i played poker ...." this diary is about my poker so ofcouse it will be based mainly around my hand history and how i'm progressing.
well today has been a strange day for me as when ever i've suffered a heavy loss it always seems to have evened out again not long after the heavy loss and the biggest of them all was this.

already when i did the shove i was getting ready to scream in anger so when i saw that king it made me feel sorry for the pocket aces it appeared to me after that FH killer card i just totally changed the luck into my favour with just the odd upset. but have manage to £20 today. also for the first time ever i have managed to reach the 500 points mark in less than a month
i dont understand why your calling a raise pre with 10 5os? all be it is a min raise but still?? Posted by shaun09
what i noticed is this table had a lot a lot of min betting being done as a way which i believe was to try making other villians fold as the first betting villian missed his flop. so i began to find that quite often if i bet 16p then i coud steal it frop them more often than not. it start of when i had flush draws raised 4p bets to build the pot, what i found was they folded as soon as i raised even the ones who called the 4p bet.
Hey craig, good to see you have the courage to follow through with a plan that is based pretty much soleley on your opponents tendencies rather than your cards, keep up the good work.
saturdays seem to be unlucky for me at the minute not only are my football team constantly loosing games my poker hand just don't seem able to stay as winners.
not even one card could save this villian Any heart on river would of given him the flush fwiw. Posted by MAXALLY
yes but that was because he got his first card on the turn when he shoved on the flop with K high and a raggy rainbow board he needed two cards at the time
Some bad bts there but i had a similar run on NL10 last night-eventually my luck changed - got some back and won a 5 quid tourney for £67 (thin brag) - As long as your getting it in - in front you,ll be fine - GL with it
well after getting carried away with myself and loosing £14 from a positive tilt. their is nothing better to finish positive than getting free entry into a mini BH on thursday

About Me: use to just do lotto but start getting too much of a loss so decided to try poker as it atleast provides some fun
Watching the lottery live is fun!!!!!!!!!!!!
especially if you get the first number out and for 2.74 seconds you actually believe you're gonna be a millionnaire............

These skills will help you improve at poker then!
Good start with the diary, keep it up and good luck!
Goes to show that in the grand scheme of things the beats don't matter too much. As long as you continue to outplay your opponents you'll overcome the luck factor over time.
well after a horrendous day yesterday evening i managed to gain some back today as for my points total well i'm trying as hard as i can to try and get to the 2000 mark by the 31st i have 1.6K so fard, although i do wonder if i will even have access to my pc tomorrow and tuesday as someone is fitting a new combe into my house and the old heating system is near my pc finally it's a suprise to be in another tourney for free in just one week.
