Stepping into the future - One man's journey

Owt tonight Milli

Small sweat that I do not tell the fan boys about! Due to any players inability to win, our hero could win a pound or two. Lets hole there is a power outage now!

[millidonk]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?

Blatantly going to lose now. Yeah if Taylor match ends in a draw I bink £4k. Couldn't get enough on Betfair to make greening out worthwhile.

GL me.

No need for after timing, plus I am the reverse bok so it's a cert! Good luck Ando's doubling down!

I can just picture you with your big cheesy ginger grin as you type.

Was out smoking when last game was 3 - 3, came back to see MVG 6-3 up. gg.., oh hai derrr 6 - 6.

Started off the day playing turbo MTTs on stars but it was so brutal I had to logout after a couple of hours. Fortunately we now have our £1k cash roll back which had been frozen on IPoker. I am a few weeks behind schedule so I have taken the executive decision to exercise aggressive BRM for the time being. First £500 is to play .25/.50 normal speed 6 max the second £500 is to drop down and have 50bi at 10NL zoom. Today went pretty well and we ended up + £90 from the anonymous tables on microgaming. Although we were +£160 at one stage.

My fav hands of the day:

I actually had a shady check raise in mind on the river, didn't realise I had so much showdown value..

[pleno1]

64 is def too loose pre, jacks look good

<3 micro gaming

[millidonk]

Thought I would get a few hands in before we settled in for the horsies. A few is how many we managed..


Hand 1 - A cooler really but it hurt. Surely nobody is just flatting the river here?

As I am taking shots I have set myself a stop loss, so we call it a day at -£128.48, probs double that after the day's racing.

Yeh hand 3 is bad. You have a bluff catcher and when you start raising this part if your range your calling range will be incredibly weak.

Yeah, i knew it was pretty bad when I was doing it. Obv was tilted, fortunately I recognised this and logged off instead of doing more dough which is an improvement to the me of a couple of months ago..

I'm a gold star on pokerstrat now so get whacking them videos up. Watched your 50NL session the other day. Was pretty com that a guy who was watching the live rail was also playing you at the same time, he should have stayed quiet and tried to fleece you..

1k ipoker roll now un frozen?


Does this mean as much as I am reading into it???

Unfortunately not. Just means I got my money back. Still can't play on there for now.

[teamonkey]

Small victories are important though.

I take it they released your funds for withdrawal but are still not allowed to play ipokers

Correctamundo. No great shakes really, only played DTD sats and cash on there. Can play cash anywhere and obv DTD sats are no use to me now.

Feeling your pain and hoping for a quiet, behind the scenes resolution to this

On Tuesday the nursery rang saying I had to collect Amelie as she was ill. Once they are sick you have to keep them off for a minimum of 48hrs as to not infect the other kids. Obv this is no great shakes as I am at home all day anyway but it means my pokers has suffered a bit. Although i've not won anything i've not lost anything either. wiiiiiiiiiiiiii. Well that's not strictly true. I've lost bundles on Cheltenham and a bit on darts because Gary Anderson and Dave Chizznall are utterly shit.


Plan to get back on it from Sunday and win me a MicroMillions yo.
