Played 2 b/h first one was card dead, out early, next one was down to 600 got a trebble up then double up. Blinds were 300-600, sittin with 4000, Pots raised i shove with A Q againt A K, Ace King holds. 43rd and no bounties.
Played a bounty hunter, card dead most of the tournie shoved with a flush draw with 10 bigs not 2 hit. Went to cash, lost a good size pot on river, went on tilt! Balance £74.60. Learned a big lesson, samewith Sunday, if i lose a big pot against bad beat just take a break. And not TILT and play mad poker. Posted by LARSON7
Update; £96.65, quite happy things are moving in the right direction. Tho this includes 4 odd pound cash 4 points.
Also brillaint getting feedback which will help improve my play as well.
Got a shout out on the Show aswell a couple of days ago lol Just turned it on and there I was.
SJSpanky, i know mate cheers, but i would say it's clearly a lot easier down at the lower level plus it's such a small amount in the grandscheme of things.
Plus I am yoyoing madly. I know there will be a bit of that in poker, but i need to try and be a bit more consistant.
lol sighcall, once i get 2 £200, my next goal is £450-500.
I've had a couple of goes at £2.20 BH but so far have done nothing outside a fw bounties. If i can get a good run in a BH and final table it will add a good boost to bank roll.
A few weeks ago, i hada brilliant run in BH just not happening right now.
Good luck with your 200-2000 challenge! epic task i'll be looking out for your progress. What areyou playing?
Plus when i get to £200, i'll prob calm it down with the poker. Playing 4 cash tbles, is a pure grind. Tho im enjoyin it.

Broke the £100 barrier tonight!! £100.23. Delighted, it was a big barrier lol after been up at 99£ I had bad run and was back down at £92. This is the hand that took me above the £100 mark.
I had pocket queens, opponent Jams J high flop, when he's shoving, i think i'm ahead, WRONG. Loved the Queen on the river:D
It's been a volatile journey so far, i really have been yoyoing.
Some sessions im getting everything and others nothing. I wonder if i can cut out some of the volatilty from my play. Maybe tighten up my range, and if i lose a big pot just stop.
I said before any bad beat and I was just going to stop playing. Then the other day I tilted and lost 8 quid in an hour. I had ACE King. Opponents raised to 22p, i go to 60, he calls. K high flop, i bet he's all in I call, They had q 7 and 2 pair! After that hand i went on to lose a bit.
Ive started playing a few 50p £1 bounty hunters which take away a lot of the highs and lows of cash. Tho its a lot slower to build up a profit, and the rake is quite high. Might try and play more of these to get my up 2 the £110-120 mark.
At the moment i've stuck to 2p 4 p tables, i'm not sure when I should move up. Maybe once bank rolls at £150.
Made a few pence profit today. Look after the pence...
Lost a bit at cash, got most of it back, played a DYM £1 won, played a BH with 9 players was totally running the show...got unlucky then got lucky to get 2nd. This was the 2nd last hand, hate oppos shove on flop...

Lost a bit at cash to.
Tomorrows a new day:D
Was playing a live game last night, had Henrik Larson the mighty K 7, Player was all in (4 handed)
Blind on blind, i called in the BB cause his range was massive at that point short stacked.
He had ace 3, flop comes Ace King King, turn blank, river Ace! Gotta love poker lol.
HND from quick session tonight, gotta mix it up playing mighty 4 6 of spades.
Played a bounty hunter, card dead most of the tournie shoved with a flush draw with 10 bigs not 2 hit.
Went to cash, lost a good size pot on river, went on tilt! Balance £74.60.
Learned a big lesson, samewith Sunday, if i lose a big pot against bad beat just take a break.
And not TILT and play mad poker.
In Response to Re: Bank roll challenge, £58.71 to £200. Current bank role =£74.60:

Got a shout out on the Show aswell a couple of days ago lol Just turned it on and there I was.
I'm hoping to be up £110 soon enough.

Some of the hands posted over on the poker clinic.
Played a shocking hand with an Ace where opponents flopped the nuts. I raised he reraised, and i called. Was an easy fold:D So done most of my stack.
Got back up 4k busting pocket kings with pocket 10s, next hand sittin with 10 bigs i shipped AJ into Aces:(
Tho got 4/5 bounties.
I had pocket queens, opponent Jams J high flop, when he's shoving, i think i'm ahead, WRONG. Loved the Queen on the river:D
Some sessions im getting everything and others nothing. I wonder if i can cut out some of the volatilty from my play. Maybe tighten up my range, and if i lose a big pot just stop.

When playing NL4, remember all passive players call - if they raise you then fold your one pair hands and yes even AA.
unless.... you have reads/noes that they go crazy with one pr hands that you beat.
95% of the players at nl4 are passive, call ATC and rasie when they hit big - 5% are just crazy bad
Just apply logic to your poker and you'll be fine.
And yes AJ is the nuts on a A29 flop, unless your raised because they always have A9/A2
good luck, I wish you well.
I'm gonna post some of my hands from the tournie in the Poker Clinic, so you can see how eratic my play is!
New Bankrole, £62.85, pretty disapointed its dropped so much.
Had bad beat after bad beat, im sitting with a straight on a 10 10 j q board, i have 9 k, guys all in on turn i call, he has pocket 2s. 2 on river!
Other hand in cash aces all in pre flop against j k, j k hits a set of kings.
Back to the start pretty much, but i guess that is poker.
Update:
Had a tone of bad beats, never had such a bad run ever,
I had AA busted 4 times over the space of 2 days, all hands got it in pre flop.
Last one was the worse, oppo had king 2, He got runner runner 2, Turn/ River.
Played a really bad session after this where i lost £15 odd quid. I was down to £45.
Had an alrite run again, current bankrole £68.73.
Played the mini primo tonight, busted near the bubble with this hand:( pretty sick!!
