    "probably played a bit looser than I would normally by 20%-30% I would say,due to the bigdeal promo which is the amount of hands played".

    The promo is hands dealt i think, so check it over again as obviously you wont need to worry about how loose-tight you are playing if that is the case.

    ty benc,
    yes you are quite right

    so once you have been dealt your 2 cards for each table you get a point,i'm assuming for each table?
    then after that it doesn't matter if you play the hand through or not?
    and next hand dealt it repeats all over again?

    day 2

    session 1

    won £18.45

    b/roll £227.23

    played better this morning,i think.
    ran better too,and I always think the two go hand in hand.

    just looked at the BIGDEAL leaderboard...

    i'm 4th so in line for £150 if I can stay there,which I've got my doubts.

    Donttelmum is top,didn't see him on any of my £2 or £3 tables y'day,so he must be pounding the £5 tournaments,i'm  guessing                                                                                                                                      
    supercrazy is second.
    Kinichahas is third
    devonfish5 fourth
    Evilpingu  fifth.

    I was hoping to finish 2nd or 3rd if i'm being honest.
    no chance of top two I feel now and maybe even 3rd but I think 4th or 5th might be possible.

    not going to kill myself for it though as I said previously and even a top 10 place pays £100
    so I might just settle for that,especially with it being the snooker finals weekend,which I've always watched for the last 35-40 years or so.

    anyway,that's all for now,
    back later.
    :)

    Remember mtt's count for this promo too,and  it is dealt hands not rake that counts.
    Have you considered loading more tables 25-30 at 60p dym's less bankroll risk more hands?

    Nicely one dev on the profit so far. I have interpreted it as hands dealt regardless so you could essentially fold every hand and still have as many points as someone who played every hand in the same game, i may be wrong though.

    hi mate,
    yes I have but tbh there are so few 60p and £1 games going.
    I have almost resigned myself to coming 4th at best maybe even 5th so I've decided to play less and I should still make top 10 I think,which i'll settle for.
    £100 is still ok and by playing less tables,around 9-12, my game is at it's best I think.
    I was playing 15-18 y'day and it didn't feel as good as today playing 12.

    cheers buddy

    session 1

    won £7.05

    b/roll £251.48

    c4p 1206

    9+ tables

    hooray,up to £250 already.
    still 5th in BIGDEAL promotion worth £100 so happy to finish 5th - 10th and take that & party
    best I could achieve now is 4th I feel,and even playing all day might not be good enough,so have settled for where I am.
    also means I can watch the snooker final which I had already decided to do anyway.

    back later for a quickie,
    gl all

    Now, I am only going to say this because I dont want to see another trainwreck.

    I would get to £500, hit 4nl and see yourself play solid and make another £200.

    Then you could hit 10nl with a £100 stoploss.

    Grinding up at DYMs then hitting 10nl isnt going to work imo. Unless you have done a lot of work in the background relating to 10nl cash.

    Happy for you to prove me wrong, but I really dont want to have to say I told you so when in a month it has all gone horribly wrong.

    All the best anyway. Plus very nice regeneration of your roll.
