Why do you suppose I have never been a success at poker before? It's because I'm lazy. When I came to this site a decade ago, it was because I wanted to improve. I started reading articles, getting a...
I think my fundamentals are good enough for the quality of villain I'm up against. Could they be better? Of course. I'm pretty strong when it comes to the maths fundamentals. I'm capable of...
I started this thread at £450, I started my journey a few days before with £50.
It's Christmas, I want to buy nice things for my family, I want to be able to smoke drink and eat well. I also...
Good question. Primarily, I'm trying to play with more discipline. I mean, if you're asking me if I'm reading articles in between sessions, then no I'm not. I have thought about it, but what's the...
Thanks for the pep talk.
Money I've withdrawn is money I've made. It counts towards my target. If I go broke because I'm withdrawing, tough titties for me. But at least I have some extra cash this...
BR = £422, so that's now a full recovery from my tilt day, since I've withdrawn £200. If not for cash outs and tilt, I'd be over £700, so I'm positive going forwards.
Oh, well it's a better quality of life than going to work five days a week, at least for me. And the stress doesn't compare either. If I tilted like that every day, then yes it would compare.
I'm...
A low-medium salary is all I hope for. I don't have things like kids and mortgage, nor do I want them. I thought I'd been clear about my requirements for this to work... £600 a month as a bare...
I don't think that variance gets better, I expect to deal with tilt better. Tilt is surely a small issue in everyone's game. Are you telling me that you play your A-game 100% of the time? If no, then...
We'll see. I mean I really don't need to earn much to make it work. I just need to deal with tilt better. I've had personal shit going on too which I haven't always dealt with well, I have the...
My day of tilt started off ok. But I kept losing when getting it in dominant. It just kept happening. I'm ok with this for a while, but there's only so many times you can think "thanks" when an idiot...
Nope. But since you want an update... I had a bad day (both IRL and poker), and went on stupid tilt. After blowing £150 like an idiot, I decided to stop being an idiot and cashed out £200 so if the...
roll = £644
Steady progress. Been running bad for a day or two, finally started to run good late this evening and I'm back in the right direction. Kinda want to keep playing, but it's 1am and I'm...
The guy who won that hand got up to £170. When I left the table, he had £15. He made a similar call with fuck all on Kxx flop and showed QJo. He didn't win that pot. That was the beginning of his...
Cheers. Yesterday was fun. Swingy as FUCK. At one point I was down to around £515, closed at £625. Insane.
One crazy hand... (stack sizes are rough)
UTG folds
HJ (£20) - opens to £1.50
CO...
Didn't play much poker yesterday, either. Closed £624.
One hand...

hero goes all in
blinds fold
UTG calls, shows K8o
4th Dec £603
Only played an hour of poker today.
3rd Dec £595
Spoiler alert... I can't use tracking on this site. I don't even think I can d/l my hand history, I can only see a list of 500 hands, and can only refine my search to as early as September 2018. So...
Dec 2nd closing BR £505
Ran like shit today, despite playing mostly well, damage minimal. Satisfied.
I can definitely beat these stakes, not sure about the hourly but the problem really is the long wait between big cashes. Good chance that I'll play MTTs on stars from time to time, but they won't be...
Now you see why I have such a hard on.
bean crushing the 20nl tables already
Can you see the waiting list? I'm #2
