progress

Sorry for the lack of updates, But I only blog when I'm winning...jokes. Had a few problems with volume over the last few weeks. Because I work continental shifts 4on 4off which rotates through the week. I find that when I'm off work when it lands on the weekend Its harder to play poker because the Mrs if off too and sitting on the pc for the whole weekend playing poker doesn't appeal to her as it does to me.

onto the poker front its been a steady month break even for most part due to playing quite a few scheduled mtts and not cashing that much. Still decent progress in the 180s. The 12/180s don't seem as daunting to play and I'm glad that there is progression there and I can start to really make money.

It reminds around the start of my 'poker career' when I used to play 10nl cash and over 50k hands I was a 10BB/100 + winner but I could never take a serious shot at 25nl and play over 10k hands. I was far to tilty taking the beats to heart not the right frame of mind to be in. The 180s are different yeah beats are still hard to take but it happens and I know I'm a long term winner in them.

Over the last few days think Ive put in the most volume I'm the 180s than I ever have. Been 12 tabling and just reloading when I bust in one, Getting pretty comfortable 12 tabling too. Just binked a 12/180 to top it off :)

Ive been looking at my stats for all the 180 mans I play by each year since I started in may 09. Glad im going in the right direction hopefully make $4k plus this year!



Bankroll atm: $2900

12/180 bink and less whine probs

bit of a gay last blog post. After feeling rotten for the past day or so, couldnt sleep last night, was waking up every 30mins, shuffling and waking the mrs up so decided to get up at 4am for a sesh. Had a good 4 hour grind through the variance that is totally standard within the 180 turbos (note to last whine post). well I binked a 12/180 this morning. First of many I hope.



So im just going to keep the volume up, I might even make silver star this month at ps. Think ive come a long way from when I used to 2 table the 2/180s just need to make sure I keep improving. set up will be 6x 2/180s and 4x 12/180 and just keep reloading when I bust. Bankroll atm is $2k so will just play the 12s until I drop below $1k which I cant see happening.

Will still have the odd mtt grind session, was doing pretty well yesterday in the $5r rebuy 15k gtd $3k on top! despite the redic beats I found myself 80/96 with ATs utg+1 with 10bb, Obv I snap shove get one donkey(massive stack) call with A7o. He flops Oesd and obv gets there on the river.

Hope everyone has a good xmas n new yr, plenty of food n drink looking rate forward to it. feel abit better now so hopefully thats the man flu gone!

fuck u pokerstars

ran bad for 3 days now can I win a race please. bye

volume volume volume!

Over the past few days ive been 8-10 tabling for a few hours each day. Feel totally comfortable doing so its just keeping the urge to continually reload after I bust. Ive also been mixing the games, Doing at the moment 6 x 2/180's 2x 12/180s 2x 3r/180.

Ive been tiling the games across my two 22" monitors just wondering if I should keep the games with the same buyin together? or just mix them all up especially the 2s and 12 180s?

Still doing the odd mtt grind session too, deep in the $11 $10k gtd and $3 $5k gtd today. So close and yet again getting it favorite in both to probally make the final table and it just doesnt happen! I will score that 4 digit bink soon!

Had a stake going in the 2/180s which didnt go that well was hoping to make it long term but theres quite abit of makeup so its kinda panned out. Happens I guess, I dont blame my horse just the varience in these are pretty shocking.

anyways just an update of my 2/180 progress. The upwards swing towards the end is obviously when I started to put more volume in! just need to keep it up.



12/180s- not too worried about this, from what Ive seen so far the 12s n 2s dont play that much different...

Japs eye

Been a while since I posted just thought I would update peeps of my progress....none!
My volume has been pretty dire just lost all interest to play, alatley i would rather fire up the ps3 than load up some tables.
Hopefully I will get the disire to grind back. Doesnt help that Ive got 16 days straight which I'm in th middle of now to work, bring on the 14th! Can't wait 22 days off work :)

Going to reg at pokerstars.fr sometime shortly because I've herd there are a few fishy frogs there! Anyway got to go because this writing this entry on my iPhone is doing my japs eye in! Bye.

married man!

well thats pretty much me fucked for life haha. only joking rach (if you secretly read my blog):P dont really think I should write much about it, because it would go on for ages and I dont think anyone is interested about what happened in great detail anyway!

Basically it all went without a hitch, She looked amazing and the next day we fooked off to marmaris, turkey for 2 weeks which was great id recommend it to anyone!

On the poker front its still going pretty well, Ive been working on my volume since I got back. I just need to use my day's off from work better. Too bad the 180 men on stars are slow at 8am to midday to fill. Makes me less motivated when I bust to reload because of the wait time!

Binked my 1st 3r/180 yesterday for $570, highest Ive seen the prizepool in them too which made it even more sweeter. Actually had a great day yesterday got deep in the $3 $3k gtd on stars came 11th/1500+ for a measly $43. Wish they would payout to a lesser field in these donkaments. who the fuck wants to play for 5 hours and min cash for $5.

I'll post a sharkscope graph for the 2,12s and 3r/180s together. Im losing at the 12's atm but its only over a very small sample. one decent cash should sort that out.



bankroll: $2500

bye 4 now

rush poker and the 12/180s

well since my last post I was very unlucky not to bink a 12/180 came 2nd instead still a great return but would of been nice to say I actually won one. As the swings are Ive still been taking shots at the 12's but not even cashed in my last 10 games.

Ive been finding it hard to find the time to fit the 180 mans in on stars, So Ive withdrawn $150 and deposited it into fulltilt to give me 15 buyins to play 10nl rush. Dont think I could play 25nl rush yet id be far too tilty. Ive played about 1300 hands so far and half a buyin down but feels pretty easy to make some $$$.

Just a short update cos the missus wants to go shopping...bye
