Buzzing MTT win

Published on 2011-06-19 23:04:00

The cash grind was going well. I put in a ton of hours (7 in one day) on Saturday all afternoon then while watching Mcilroy destroy the competition at the US open. I hit a high point of $5500 up on Saturday night from cash games, also cleared the ipad2 (being dispatched from apple this week) and had some rakeback of around $400 - so $5900 up + an Ipad2 was looking like a good month.Somehow I didn't lose on the golf - a runaway favourite winning a major could have been a massive loss - but I eq

Started quite promisingly with a small profit and plenty hands then 2 days of depressing losses taking me back past even.Monday night was good though as won $2500 in a 2.5 hour session.....Things I have learned are that the quality of opponents varies dramatically based on time now that US are barred from Stars.... Merge network seems easy as players are too loose but I am still only break even there and hands wont be a problem.Targets1, Play 20,000 hands - Played 5,750 already so this will be e

Well hello again..... 1 post every 18 months... well at this rate I have less than 50 posts left before I die!Things have been very up and down since I last posted. I have probably played less than 20,000 hands of poker in the last 18 months , just playing occasionally when i felt like it. Things have been on a giant rollercoaster in the last 15 months, starting at Cheltenham races Mar 10 where I was getting pretty poor to go on a massive betfair heater hitting a high in mid Nov 10. Since th

November Results + LOL!

November was a funny month.Guys that play cash games will be used to those kind of dips. But I hate them losing $5000 in 3 days crushed me for a while.Managed to put the hands in though 25,000.Playing a few tables this evening and Greg Raymer joins in the table. I am already on the verge of tilt as had to lost flips + all the players are actually good on my tables for a change which is annoying and Raymer sits down as if just to rub it in....Anyway lol at game chat!Dealer: Game #36306636267: k

Played for 16 hours yesterday!Amount of hands played isn't going to be a problem.... the win rate might be a problem though. In the end yesterdays session went well but only because one player at the end went mental and dropped a grand to the table...Yesterday I played 2669 hands and won $1705. But that was the exception as had had a few days off before that and was reading water in the days before that.For the whole of November I have played 11,799 hands and I am ahead $5,069.Will be puttin

LOL at my laziness since March. Was running my stats (see below) this month when I decided to have a look at my Hilo stats this year broken down by month. There are some excuses about my lack of hands from July onwards (i decided PLO was the way forward - my pokertracker stats say it wasn't.) but even then its embarrassing how lazy I have been at times this year. Well onwards and upwards.This month I have played about 7000 hands so far and am in front about $3500. So its quite a good month

I'm in America just now visiting my brother and playing golf. But I have actually been playing a bit of poker online for the 1st time since April. Unsurprisingly borne out of a dwindling amount of cash but I am actually enjoying it. Been playing on stars only (as in the states) so been playing Hilo PLO and quite enjoying myself.Spending cash is fun but getting a job wont be so its given me a real kick in the stones. Hopefully I wont grind away only to go back to my lazy habits again once I h
