Played 4 multi table tournaments tonight and made the final table of 3 of them.

1k deep space 5th

400 shooting star 5th

300 omaha deep space 4th

I had no Hexapro influence during this time.

Coincidence? :wonder:

Broke a slight profit for the year in tournaments finally and €108 up across all games.  Feel a bit better about things after tonight although disappointed to make 3 finals and not close one out. Onwards we go...

Three more final tables tonight and my theory about Hexpro ruining my game looks legit. I kept off it again and got 9th, 8th and this

Winner of the Dark Matter and the confidence to play at a higher average stake with the bankroll I have.

Note - Hexapro 2's profit margins went horrendous as I was chasing a jackpot and loading up as many as I could and moving straight allin on anything that was 1.5x... 

But anyway. It's been a good night!

Update before I start the Sunday grind. Pretty bad week. Took some shots. Not cashed much and been chasing Hexapro jackpots too and the swings are emotionally hard to deal with. Shouldn't really be playing the €5 level my bankroll defo cant deal with those swings. 4 jackpots hit while I was playing tables but I am still yet to hit anything other than a 25x.

I am in the same boat this week mate, i went 1/28 in tournament cashes yesterday with a end result of - £430.00. Definitely sticking to Unibet and maybe a little 888 today and no other sites!

Have you thought about the 5 seat sngs? I put a little volume in the 10/25euro buyins and they seem pretty soft and may be able to offer a slightly more consistent profit graph line, I am definitely considering putting more full time volume into those and just letting go of the excitement of running deep in MTTs.

@PompeyPokerSIck run man :( Yeah mate it's carrying on into today too. Losing most of my 70/30's and flips. Lost 72%, 44% (AJ to 99), 69% allins in the space of around 5 hands to go from top 5 stack to out 4 from the money in a €700 GTD. Bubbled a sat KK to AJ. Just came 2nd in a singularity JJ to A2 but was about a 15/1 chip underdog to begin with. More frustration when it happens on multiple tables at once than moaning about my luck I guess. I'll ride it and hopefully not tilt too much... 

I find it hard to grind SNG's. I tried it 2 years ago and got a good sample size but didn't enjoy it. Was actually a loser at €10 level which suprised me but I have worked on that part of my game since then. I would defo do it again but the problem I have is my roll isn't enough to play at €10 now and I wouldn't be happy playing lower than that. Hopefully grow my roll and perhaps one for the next quarter but I find it hard to let go of the excitement of running deep!

Sigh.... 2nd in deep crazy moon too after again starting HU a huge underdog. Elsewhere I just can't win a big allin. Give me AA vs A6 for a top 5 stack and i have no chance. Give me 7 2 vs 77 next hand when I've lost all my chips and I win that everytime. Bubbled a €50 ticket, too.

Thats me done for today I've had enough... Can't believe I'm actually in profit for the day to how fed up I feel.

How I'm up for the last couple days is anyones guess. I've played like a complete donk as some of you have witnessed first hand lol My mental mood seems to have been contantly switched to 'F**K it, let's go for it' and despite some desperate luck at times in and around bubbles I have overall played terrible. But I'm up, and I'll take it.

I was feeling pretty weird after the community games last night. My mindset was just not right and I kept swinging from one extreme of play style to the other. I think I naturally feel like all community members are decent at poker and I overthought lots of scenarios only to be surprised when I saw the actual hand. It's been a long time since we had regular community games and I think I just need to treat it as any other tournament and not as a reason to overthink things. Made one final table but was typically the €1 buyin. 

On the Hexapro front I was frantically trying to hit the 5 jackpot earlier. I noticed it when the counter was on 800 games left and rapidly spinning down. I opened as many tables as I could as it raced down to about 200 games left and finally hit on some other table, unfortunately. 

Interesting that the podium challenge is going to get under way from Friday. I want to be challenging top of the leaderboard and it will all depend on what volume I can put in. I am really interested to see which community members, and how many, will be posting top 3 finishes every day but with a Malta package up for grabs my guess is quite a few!

Still need that haircut...

I honestly thought I could fiercely compete in this podium challenge but WOW the competeition is tough. I don't think I could put in the volume needed for the Malta but I do have believe in my abilities to win it if I could. Nethertheless had two wins in the last 2 days to boost the bankroll and gove me a confidence boost going into Sunday.

I will continue to compete for the podium and hope I can get on a rush of good finishes throughout the week when not at work. .

Aside from that €5 Hexapro ruined my profit margins. Devils poker.

Decent week despite bubbling some live event packages... Now Milton Keynes has been announced as the first UK stop I have booked it up without a package. I'm not rolled to buy into such an event so if I don't win a package (and won't be playing the final tonight) I will just go along anyway and say hello and maybe play a side event or two. I am pleased to see the UK final so popular now but sadly still isn't  ideal for me being on a Saturday and I'd much rather that £10 rebuy on a Monday be a 25 freezeout. Of the other legs I'll plan to be at Manchester and would love to do Newcastle as I've never been but it'll be quite expensive to get there for me. Brighton might be off the cards also depending on expense. 

Podium is going well for me and despite probably not being able to finish in the top 5 let alone the top 3 I'm pleased with my results. I can't compete with those that play all day every day but from the volume I've put in I think I'm doing well. I had 4 final tables last night and two wins but sadly only 2 podiums. 3 wins overall this week. All small but had a few bigger second places to build the profit up.

Bouty Badlands is coming along ok. Havent had the time to put in what I wanted yet but I will do before the promotion ends. I'll be disappointed to finish outside the top 30 on any leaderboard and my ambition is top 10 on each.

After having more days off than I thought I'm going to have to give up on the dream of 3 top 10 finishes in the bounty promo. 153rd in nano, 10th in low and 50th in high. I will still play all the bounties I can and hopefully grab a top 5 on the low leaderboard.

Missed the community games last week because of going to the match. I look forward to them tonight.

8th win of the year but in truth it's been a poor week due to my procrastination. My ambition of doing really well in the bounty badlands was crushed by the fact that I just didn't play enough and a full day of play yesterday was blown away by the Wolves match early on and just being too drunk / tired to play much. 29th High, 25th Low, 36th Nano were my finishing positions for €61 prize money overall I think. Also fell behind the paid places in the podium challenge.
