Apologies.....

......to one and all for the lack of updates, I've simply had nothing of any note to write about!!

Tuesday saw the bankroll take a huge hit when I ignored all the pre-written rules, instead decicing that I would play 30 DYMs, no matter what. It started well, but I then started to play very badly indeed, making poor judgements left, right and centre. I don't know exactly buy ins I dropped, but suffice to say it was a LOT. Final straw was DYM number 27, when the post below happened (the 106,106/1 mayhem). I turned it off after that, and it stayed off, right up until today. I've been running pretty cold for months now, with any luck Tuesday evening was the turning point (it can't really get any worse than 100k/1 lol!!), and that it's now out of the Poker Gods' system once and for all. Ooh look, is that a pig flying past my window??.....

On a non-poker related note, I managed to get through to the last 16 of the singles knockout in my pool league on Wednesday night (our team of 7 has 5 players in the last 16, ship it to the Berkeley!!) and also found out that we'd leapfrogged ourselves into 2nd place (by just 1 point) in the league with just 2 games remaining. 1st are currently just about uncatchable, but 2nd would be a fantastic result, fingers crossed that we can stay ahead!!

Played 10 DYMs today, cashed 7, a good start to rebuilding the battered bankroll once again, let's hope it continues. I even sucked out on the bubble in one, AT vs AK all in pre, flop brought two beautiful 10s. Mustn't grumble!!

Off out to play a £25 ($50) live freezeout tonight so must keep this one short as I have to be there in 10 minutes, usually a good crowd down there so looking forward to it.

Best of luck at the tables,
SG
