Kinda Stopped but will be back i PROMISE!

Been a hectic couple of days, so havent played much but will be back on form soon enough.
End of Feb and March will be busy poker months for me.

With a (now reduced) target of $750 by the 1st March, i shall be multi tabling NL100 the following times
Tues 23rd Feb Eve
Wed 24th Feb Eve
Thurs 25th Feb All Day
Fri 26th Feb Eve
Sun 28th Feb AM

Hope to bust another 5k hands minimum which means this month i will have played just shy of 20k hands @ NL100.  To be honest if i can end those sessions in the GREEN then i would have only had one losing session this month, sadly it was half my roll (TILT!!)

Mini FTOPS

This starts in March (10th-21st) and as i dont really have the roll to play in these events i have joined Chipmeup, a staking sitem and have some stakers from my forum (Good Ol' Gambling Network) si hopefully will get to play the following events:

Event 4 - $20 + 2, 1RB, 1 addon, $300k G Holdem    ($62 - Selling 60% on chipmeup)

Event 9 - $50 + 5 Heads Up, $200k G ($55 - Selling 60% on chipmeup)

Event 10 - $30 + 3 Hold em, $600k G (possible staker paying 100% for 60% share)

Event 22 - 2 day $250 + 16, $600k G ($266 - Selling 60% on chipmeup if i sat in)

Main Event - $50 + 5. $800k G (Sold 50% for 30% return)


My username on chipmeup is s4ooter, so feel free to contribute to the dream!!!



FINALLY

after our good showing the the Non Apat Team event, there is to be another leg, slighlty diff in format @ DTD, Notts on March 27th

We, the GNF, will be having a team.

New format is 10 players per team and and increase to 12 teams which will be cool

5k starting and 24 min blinds!!

TIME TO SHIP IT ME THINKS

Gold!!!! Always believe in your soul!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quick update, played 900 hands tonight for a massive $4 profit lol
Was about $90 up and then decided to grind out Goldstar tonight.
Loat a big pot with AK v A7cc on K39cc board, all went in for club on the river
and had AA 4bet pre by 35cc which also hit his flush! i hate clubs!!!!

But Goldstar was made!!! w00p w00p!!
Roll is still $330ish booo, but all is ok. Coulda done wit finishing $90 up - roll back over $400 =

Gonna aim for Platinum Star next month, which is 7500vvps in march, so ave = 242 a day which is almost impossible to do whilst 4 tabling NL100. Hopefully missus will buy me a 2nd moniter for my bday in March which will help me be able to 8 table!!! Sadly my day is at the end of the month!

i reckon you earn about 1/2vvp per hand so thats about 3750 hands a week - bearing in mind i only play 3/4 days max!! thats 1000 hands a session - DEFFO need 2 moniters and 8 tables running!!!

Still aiming for $750 roll by end of the month

Also gonna treat myself from the Stars store, but cant decide if i should:
A) concentrate on roll and therefore use points for sats into bigger tournies (then unreg and take T$?)
B) each month get some bits with fpps ive earnt, ie there is a zippee i quite like and also like the leather jacket?!
C) save the fpps and get an xbox or something at the end of the challenge so even if i fail, i get a badass reward!?

What do you guys think?!

Feb Update - the tilt came - and it hurt!

Quick Update:

Decided to put in a 10 hour session tuesday night, and the shit hit the fan.
Lost a lot of races, 9 to be exact and walked KK into AA twice.
Also had overpairs cracked 3 times aipf, and after that i just tilted, played badly due to tiredness and generally fucked the month up.

Had another session Wednesday night and had another winning session.

All in all ive had one losing session this month since moving to NL100 however it was a big one (see pic)

Obv not looking to make $1000 by end of month, but am looking to do the following:

Roll = $750
Goldstar status (in the bag as only 350vpps away)
Earn next Stellar award (900vpps to go for a free $50)
Sort out my redline (see graph)
Follow the following guidelines to protect roll from tilt and stupid sessions!
1) Shortstack with $20 - once have $50 leave table
2) Stop session if at any point i am -$60 on the session (have to due to roll)
3) Stop playing MTTs - until roll is $1250+
4) Once playing MTTs, only use $100 per month max, anything bigger must use fpps to satty into.  The reason i have chosen $100 is that i win that in 2 sessions, therefore once that is won for the month, hopefully by the 2nd of the month, then i can have a little freedom to play mtts.
5) Dont mix MTTs and cash in a session.  Just seems to tilt the fook out of me!

Anyways enough rambling

Headache!

This month i was, before today, $40 down online cash at NL10 with some horrific coolers, AA losing to KK and then 2 lots of KK into AA

Well i thought that was over when i grinded $15 back up to $90 on Rush Poker - and back in the positive

then the shit hit the fan

ive had sets rivered once all the money has gone in
guys all in catch the flush
Ak bt my KK
KQ bt my QQ
Flopped 2 pair getting rivered by a set!!

and after grappling all the way back up to the + for this month @ cash - i am now -$100 which is a painful

i did win a 9 man $10 sng which had PCUKs Barnfather whom i KO'd in 3rd

EDIT
this month so far 4800 hand and -$70
and i have ran like dogshite

gonna hammer the rush poker and 4x table that on FT
and lay off the cash on stars, maybe play a lot more $10 9 man sngs and $6.25 HU matches

more Ups and Downs than a Spanish prostitute!
