happyhornet Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I've become quite disenchanted with this game over the last few months. I think success last Summer made me believe that I was better than I am. Consequently, I've played like a fool off and on for months leaking money. I need to concentrate and take this game seriously or I will leave it alone. My challenge is to take the $10 (approx) in one of my accounts and using correct bankroll management try and increase the roll to whatever level I deserve to be at. After I hit $50, I'll follow Chris Ferguson's exact ideas, up until then I will be very conservative and start at 1/2c cash, 50c STT's, and Freerolls. Because I don't want to lose touch with playing PL games, I will still play PL exclusive games on other networks and obvious added value games pointed out on PL. Occasionally I may ask for a stake for an MTT. The rest of my time is going to be re-learning the game and learning to enjoy the game as I used to. I will post results in this thread. There is no timeframe but I want to avoid going broke. Should I do so...I may cry!!:cry Cheers All Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyhornet Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 Re: Hornet's Final Challenge Opening balance = £6.12 Played 45 minutes 2 tabling 1/2c. Bought in for $2 on each ($5 max). Lost $1.85 on one table:spank,but was up $1.21 on the other. also played a 20c STT where I came 7th, still got rivered!!! A few thoughts are that a 3x BB raise will get called by everyone, only raises of 5-8 x BB seemed to get respect. On the table I lost omney on, I saw 39% of flops. I think trying to play smallball here is going to be expensive. From now on it is TAG all the way, bet big when I have the goods and hope someone will call with the worst of it. Closing balance £5.39 but a lot learned about the dynamics of the micro micro stakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyhornet Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Re: Hornet's Final Challenge Oh dear, what a disaster. I lost 2 buy ins (trips vs gutshot and str8 vs 2 pair, both on the turn:cry) Balance down to £2.48. Going to have to stick to 20c STT's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
