hebert10 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Havn't posted in the poker section for a while, have been busy with work and other things that have prevented me playing for a while just when I felt I was starting to get a good grip on the game and was playing confidently. Other commitments meant withdrawing alot of my BR, so I am going to start with $50. There will be no real guidelines to start with as i'm not sure how often i'll be able to play and how much time i'll be able to commit but hopefully I can get a good few tournies in each week and start from there. Will more than likely leave stars and FT alone for now and mainly play on the euro sites as fields are smaller and I generally have a better record across these sites! I'll keep this as a bit of a log and hopefully not go broke too quickly :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hebert10 Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it played a $400 gtd on 888 with a BI of $1.50 with no luck, just playing a stud freeroll on stars which isn't looking too promising either!

hebert10 Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it Have started recording results with an app, just playing a few tourneys now so will post it up afterwards, been an ok day so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatfreddy Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it there's a cool promotion on 888 where you can win a trip to vegas for the wsop and that is worth focusing on i think. take the trip, play the tourney and live in the room like howard hughes come back from vegas with most of the 1000 dollars in spending money they give you, well thats my plan anyway!

andybell666 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it what app are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hebert10 Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it Just a free one mate called poker score. Have been playing mainly on laptop and pokertracker slows it down a hell of a lot and crashes it now and then. So I think for the time being it'll be better just using this where I can just keep track of profit and loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hebert10 Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it so, a quick update: I've managed to get my most recent results in to pokertracker since I started this challenge and things aren't looking to bad. Over the next few weeks I'm thinking i'll try and concentrate on satellites more as qualifying for bigger tourneys might be more worth my while. here's the graph so far: https://imageshack.com/i/jwtho6j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hebert10 Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it will update this again later, its been a while. I've only managed around 70 or so tourneys since I started this but was hoping to get in more. At a bit of a loss at the moment but hopefully can do something in tonights games!

hebert10 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it Still not been playing too much lately. I've currently got $45.89 in my Stars account so using some really conservative BRM i'm going to see how much I can spin it too (or go broke!). Will be a mix of different games as and when I can play, which won't be very often. If anyone has any suggestions of games for this kind of bankroll would be glad to hear them. I'll probably mainly play the $0.25 45 and 180 mans for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danshot Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Re: Getting back in to it They seem like a good start if want to avoid variance a bit , would recommend that you mix in some $1 45 Man games too as structure in these is great. Believe all the 50c games are turbo and raked a bit higher obvs still quite soft but more swingy. Good Luck , I'm back to grinding 6 Max SnGs as of this month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
