+1 to a great post Alex.

I am not sure if I missed, but you did not do an end of month analysis? Results? Hope to see a full Prague TR and an end of year review too?

Well done on a decent year, Alex.

Hi Aaron,

Yes, he did.

Scroll back through the thread to the last day of November, (give or take a day), he Posted it then.

Thanks Tony.

I probably was reading from first day of December and expecting them then! Duh.

Found it here:

GG. Oh this isn't pretty...

November results

Online MTTs profit -£8400
Hours: 80

Live MTTs profit -£2024
Hours 32

Live Cash profit £4551
Hours 22

TOTAL LOSS £5873
Hours 133

Standard swings really given the level I'm playing. Have really looked at my game, particularly this last week and been thinking a lot about leaks and also about trends in the games these days and talking a lot with housemates about lines and ideas. I've been playing pretty good I'm sure and made some good improvements these last few sessions, but results are taking time to come. I can't complain about anything really, had 11 winning months in a row, and have definitely out performed my expectations this year so I'm not going to go on about run bad, even though it's been pretty tough this month.

I don't feel "guilty" for feeling shit about it sometimes - it's definitely inhuman to be totally happy with a big downswing (£13k total since my peak mid october plus horses lost about £10k this month too) and if it doesn't affect your mood at all no matter how well you've ran before, I think you're just a freak of nature Tongue

Prague is going to be huge. I'm playing EPT, WPT, Eureka, and plenty of side events and the GSOP at the end and putting PJ in some bigish stuff. Worst case scenario would be pretty bad, the year will still have been a big success, but nothing special and I'll be fine financially if we both brick everything.

Best case scenario is....well...pretty damn exciting.

I had this excitement before Vegas in the summer, nothing rivals it imo, what could happen....#millionairebychristmas...Tongue

Welcome back to the UK, I trust Krakow was enjoyable? After your departure I attended a classical music concert within the Prague castle complex, you'd have been proud (in truth it was rather a chocolate-box-y pastiche of pieces, but thought I'd get in a bit of a culture brag).

Here's a pic of what looks like Disneyland but is in fact Prague. Remarkably (for the benefit of those who could not make it out there) the tournaments were not, I repeat not, held in this building Sad

Yes Ed I'm back. It's odd touching down in England and it being warmer and sunnier than where I've come from. That pleasant feeling only lasted a few seconds as I went on my phone and as always, the first thing I check is blonde, and am instantly reminded in huge red letters how shit I am lol!

Had a lovely time with Victoria in Krakow. Will post a brief TR once I've succeeded in navigating the London Underground...

I think I may have missed it, and apologies if I did, but did you post your November figures?

Public transport is so tilting! Best way to train it from Gatwick to Cambridge is to go into London Victoria, underground to kings cross and then it's an easy 45min nonstop service to Cambridge. Apparently. Get to kings cross to find it's not working today, so had to trek all the way over to Liverpool street with all my stuff, and I count my lucky stars that I'm just in time for a train. oh no, it's TOO FULL for me and a load of others to get on!! What is this?!?!

Never not driving to/from airport again!
