Desktops back so im back to my better set up. Played a 5 hour non stop session as soon as it arrived but was to no joy losing a few hundred in the end. Amazing pattern this month, every time i get near clearing a £400 bonus i lose £300-£400 in the last 10% of clearing it. Ive done this every time on maybe 4 or 5 bonuses :(
Annoying thing about today is i was looking forward to chucking everything into pokertracker and seeing how i ran etc but its playing up as i know ive played more than the number of hands its imported. I did win the biggest pot i was in today of $2,000 but i lost a few $1,200 pots and others so it would have been nice to have seen an overall ev line.
Biggest cooler ever that pot above calling a raise with KcQxJx10x and flopping AQJxcc . Got all excited when other guy couldnt get it in fast enough thinking prob vs a set but he turned over AAQ7xcxc but i managed to survive the ridiculous sweat. Sticking it into an odds calc now , gnna guess im 53% fav for fun. LOL shows what i know i was a 46% underdog, my 3 blockers obv dnt count as much as i thought !!!
Right ive been able to tally the month now this desktop is back and im pretty much where i was at start of today at +£1,190. Not sure if will play much 2moz as out in evening , have to see.

Thurs - WTF
Well im hope im done cos im exhausted. Just played as highest stakes across several tables more than ive done for probably 18 months.
Earlier was normal but bad afternoon losing to fish at usual dull stakes. Didnt even fire the laptop up in the evening until nearly midnight and in hindsight probably should have just stayed off. Anyway im too knackered to discuss hands but i reckon i went about £2,000 in the hole but this was on high stakes but kind of acceptable as it was hi lo and my fav fish was sitting.
I guess tilt monster kind of got me although i didnt chuck anything away on the tables i just started searching higher games to find something i could take a shot at with at least 1 big fish in. I ended up playing 2/4 3/6 5/10 and even 10/20 plo. The hi lo i lost (2-3stacks) on was 10/20 (800buyin) pl too although i also got coolered for loads on 2/4 which helped induce the craving to chase higher.
To cut the story short as i wnna go bed (5 hours solid session and 5am now) i won and lost some huge pots but ended up winning the biggest one of $4,000 vs a reg and then bust the $800 fish a couple of hands later on the 10/20 table. Great escape, im not sure what the figures are for the day as i cant really remember where i started. Im definitely level or up a few hundred anyway.
Note the plo stakes are huge compared to the hi lo as i only buyin for 40xbb on hi lo in higher games where as i buy in for 100xbb whatever stakes plo is.
I guess the interesting part is where do i go from here. I was playing those games properly without being scared and really enjoying the rush in the big pots. Normally i need to be drunk to achieve this but im craving more now so i might have to set a serious roll aside and take at shot back at the stakes in played regularly in 2009. Tough decision and i dnt wnna rush it but at the same time i dnt wanna leave my roll too high before i get drunk at the weekend as i dnno if i trust myself after tonight. Watch this space i guess.

Wed - A Bit Tipsy
Only squeezed an hour in during the afternoon losing a little chunk. Didnt play then until midnight for a few hours. With maybe 6 pints in me i played some higher games but made sure there was at least 1 fish at the table. Ended up on 30/60 limit hi lo where i lost about $800 before finishing a $200ish up. I was chasing the whole session really though as lost 3 buyins of $240 at 3/6 within 10minutes of sitting down (not cos drunk cooler ul type hands). Fortunately i ran better in the limit and mixed games and finally ended up somewhere around level or mayb $100 or $200up. Levelish on the day anyway.
Writing this before i start today. Looking like im gonna play 3-4hours ish now then return 8 or 9pm later for 3-7hrs more.

Tues - Mixed
Weird day. Wasnt feelin it in afternoon even though i was winning. In evening i got into it more but went quite a chunk down before an ok recovery. Cleared another bonus and was playing higher stakes than usual as the games were going and good. Somehow ive managed to carry on until after 4:30am despite feeling sluggish earlier. Highlight of day playing 10/20 pl hi lo for a few rounds b4 shitting my pants allin pre for a $2,000 pot with AAQJ which split vs AKJ4 and leaving on next bb ;)

Mon - Good
Title would be excellent but ive no idea how much i won but it probably near best this month. Bit disappointed to be feeling shattered at only 2am but ive still put in between 7 and 8 hours total today so i guess its fine ! Also my desktop got damaged in transit but they have agreed to build me a completely new one because of this and i shouldnt lose any saved work as the hard drive was fine. Obviously gonna be a delay in getting that , maybe another week i guess but if todays anything to go by its not a problem. I barely went above 4 tables at any one time today.
