Definite break for a few days.....

I may well have said that I wasn't going to play the weekend, but couldn't help myself. Decided to split the remaining Full Tilt balance between 2 micro cash tables, took 3 huge hits and busto. First was when I led out with a flopped top set vs flush draw who jammed x4.6 my lead, turned the flush, second was 44 vs 55 on 45A flop and third was K9 vs 55 on K95 flop. Bye bye Full Tilt bankroll, it was so healthy a few days ago, boo hoo!!

Must take a break now, the K9 vs 55 my oppo might as well have phoned me up and told me he had the set on the flop, I played it so badly it was unbelievable. Could've got away with a $2.30 hit, instead I go busto. Not good.

Back onto the William Hill Double Your Money's next week, target was to reach $500 by the end of February (planned a target of $250 a month for the first 6 months) but I think $300 is probably now a far more realistic target given the circumstances. With any luck, February will be a better month than January. I won't hold my breath though!!

Good luck to all, see you at the tables in a few days :-)

Wow, MC in da hizzle!! Great to hear from you :-))
Hope you are well mate, saw your post at beginning of Jan, thoughts are with you and I hope everything turns out ok. Keep us posted!!
The banned two are banned for life I'm afraid. Fair enough, I was a naughty boy, I shall take it on the chin. For reference though, 'kkkkkkk' and 'my name is kevin' may seem to have familiar styles of posting if you look closely enough ;)
All the very best,
SG
