  1. Finally feeling better from the crash that I had. So let's get an update on here and start some more poker in the new quarter. It's not been a great start to the year in life or in poker! Total Tournaments Played 132 Total Games Played 228 Total Spent 288.40 Total Won 119.68 Total ITM 18 Total ITM % 13.64% Total ROI % -34.23% Tournament Profit € -98.72 Grand Total Profit € -51.04
  2. Thanks both! Yes @GR1ZZL3Rthis isn’t the type of break I had in mind but I’m lucky I don’t have any other types of ‘breaks’ to go with it! Hopefully more luck getting to some sort of live event this year too.
  3. So the intention was to update this a lot sooner and play more games through Feb. Unfortunately I had a car crash and I am just about in a position now where I feel a bit more able to do anything other than think about pain! I was planning to show up in Nottingham and meet some of you at Dusk til Dawn. And I did make it Nottingham. Unfortunately I was confined mainly to the hotel as I just wasn’t up for moving around too much. Hopefully better luck lies ahead both on and off the table.
  4. I managed to complete all the challenges for January which hasn't happened for a while! Full update coming soon.
  5. Bet you thought I'd killed the blog again didn't you? 😉 I'm still here and played a bit of the series but didn't pull up any trees. In fact I'm currently running at a loss for the year but no bother - lots of play left in me. I plan to do some small grinds before end of Jan and hopefully have turned that around.
  6. Good luck to those taking part in the SKS. I'll see you at some tables!
  7. Haha love it! Extra motivation to keep it alive now. So I'm going to be playing later today and getting some SS entries I hope!
  8. Haha is there a badge to go with that? 😁 Thanks for the welcome back. Just some flips for me today but I want to be all over the upcoming SS!
  9. And happy new year to all. I fancy some poker.
  10. Wow so yeah I've been away a long time! I cannot believe I never read this and I am sorry for disappearing for so long. It's these sorts of posts that used to make poker so worthwhile to me. To get feedback, to engage with community and share ideas, to feel good about what you did even though it didn't work out that time. I am very much the person you describe. I rely a lot more on gut and instinct than math's and stats and you are right that this has served me much better live than online. Although I haven't been a losing player online since I started at Unibet my biggest cashes have come live and I'd say my cash per tournament strike rate is above average. Life really has hit me hard. Since this blog started going quieter I have had a baby, bought a house, had 2 promotions at work and moved offices so the last year at least there seems to have been no time to relax. Thank you so much for this post and I'm really glad you enjoyed the blog. I hope you are still around to read the reply.
  11. Quick update before a quick grind! Total Tournaments Played 281 Total Games Played 433 Total Spent 656.60 Total Won 760.78 Total ITM 66 Total ITM % 23.49% Total ROI % 16.93% Tournament Profit € 111.18 Grand Total Profit € 89.92
  12. I had planned to grind yesterday after just dipping in and out of the last few weeks. I made a couple final tables and then over an hour spell really turned my game off and started making bad decisions. I felt after that the right thing to do was quit for the day and come back. Total Tournaments Played 249 Total Games Played 371 Total Spent 587.04 Total Won 632.06 Total ITM 60 Total ITM % 24.10% Total ROI % 8.52% Tournament Profit € 50.02 Grand Total Profit € 43.35
  13. Thank you sir. I'm not down about it I'm confident I'll do well enough over the next 6 months and just keep reading and learning. It was a profitable day yesterday where I tripled my total buyins so hopefully can put a small run together before the inevitable downswing.
  14. Fashionably late as usual but here is my profit update. And yikes! Rusty isn't the word and it's clear I need to do a bit of upskilling after being away for long spells for so long. But meh let's keep going and continue to learn. I know I'll turn it around eventually even through trial and error...... right???? Total Tournaments Played 221 Total Games Played 335 Total Spent 518.60 Total Won 508.82 Total ITM 50 Total ITM % 22.62% Total ROI % -0.92% Tournament Profit € -4.78 Grand Total Profit € -3.92
  15. Played a bit over the last week. I’ll do a profit update this weekend. Not been a great start though so expecting to show some pretty poor figures! Final tabled on of the plo rebuys then just seem to coast into a ‘C’ game and blew it. Not much has happened other than that. I do have an eye on some of these live events though. Would be great to get back out there with Unibet after all this time. Good luck.
  16. Travelling back so maybe they’ll be a Sunday grind again tomorrow? Either way looking forward to getting back on the tables again.
  17. Thank you mate! Great to hear from you! Short compared to the rest as usual! It was good to shake the cobwebs off. I will probably have another few hours tonight but I'm just looking forward to a good holiday this weekend and come back refreshed for some grinding.
  18. What better day to play some poker than a Sunday! I'm back, I have a bankroll and I'm ready to get a feel again for the tables. I am on holiday for a week soon but this feels like a good time to get back into the swing of things and see whats out there. Stay lucky - but not against me.
  19. I know I've said this time and time before but this time I really should be back. I have been working on everything from house stuff, the day job to my own mental health in the last couple of months and now I feel finally ready to knuckle down and start playing poker a lot more. I've even sold some investments to have a small bank roll. I look forward to starting up again really soon and seeing some of you at the tables. Stay lucky.
  20. A couple weeks without poker was not intentional but that's just the way it's been, unfortunately. I will still hopefully get a chance to play some of this UOS because I hate letting them pass by without giving at least some of the events a go! Here is the stats as we stand: Total Tournaments Played 170 Total Games Played 263 Total Spent 360.04 Total Won 438.29 Total ITM 40 Total ITM % 23.53% Total ROI % 23.12% Tournament Profit € 83.25 Grand Total Profit € 91.60
  21. Last night was a bit of a case of what might have been seeing as I was good chips around the bubble of 3 Winter Festival events but managed to lose one with a cruel river and play bad in another for a small cash. However I did manage to navigate to 2nd in one where I finally succumb to @XY heads up. In truth I shouldn't have got that far. I don't think I played that great but some hesitancy from other players on the final allowed me to keep picking up chips where I really shouldn't have been. What it means is I am finally turning a profit for the year. Of course I was never worried 😇 Let's hope it stays that way and profit continues to mount up! I will be in a few Sunday events so here's hoping for a few more final tables! Total Tournaments Played 158 Total Games Played 236 Total Spent 322.00 Total Won 414.02 Total ITM 37 Total ITM % 23.42% Total ROI % 29.51% Tournament Profit € 95.02 Grand Total Profit € 105.86
  22. Thanks @XY you played brilliant and well deserved. Absolutely smashed that final table!💪 And cheers for the welcome back. It's good to be back! And looks like we are indeed joining the party in this awesome promotion!
  23. Not many games played tbf. Onwards and upwards. I hope. Total Tournaments Played 123 Total Games Played 186 Total Spent 226.92 Total Won 185.66 Total ITM 24 Total ITM % 19.51% Total ROI % -17.30% Tournament Profit € -39.26 Grand Total Profit € -31.00
  24. Well as usual life has prevented me from any real winter series grind and had plans to play all day today and the internet has been broke all day! I will be back with a profit update (spoiler - it’s not good) soon though and hopefully get some events in before the end of the week before really getting stuck into plo.
