I am normally a cash game player. But this month i must say I didn't have much pleasure playing poker so I decided to make a few changes.

1) I withdrew my roll and had to pay a few bills but there is still a bit of rakeback due to come

2) I will deposit a small amount on 770 and start playing micro stake SNGs.

I work full time and am busy every weekend spending my time with the family.

I am not sure if I will pay 9 max or 6 max nor which format (speed or normal) I will play

i will use strict BRM which will be determined by the type of SNG I will be playing.

goal will be:

1) to at least to stay Gold here on Pokerstrategy

2) to finish in profit

3) to have enough to move up to next level.

I might mix and play on different sites as well depending on how I feel and different promotions.

My week at home finishes today. I am quite happy with the amount of diy accomplished and we have made the decision to sell the house in order to move to Bath.

After a week break from the tables I have deposited $50 on 770 and will start playing SNGs tonight. I have to find what structure suits me the most as well as an adequate amount of tables. Once i am happy with this I will more than likely book some coaching if I can see myself playing SNGs for the foreseeable future.

played a few sngs last night. but the traffic is very low so I might have to add more sites. I could not have more than 3 running at a time (and ended up laying only 3) when i would like to 6 table on average

I binked the first one and bricked the other 2 giving me a 16% ROI :P

I will first try adding some turbo and maybe mixing some from one limit above. if it is still not sufficient I will add another site and see.

I played about 20 games yesterday and ran about 8BI below ev.

I mixed 2s, 1s turbos and regular. Today I will drop 2s until I am back up a bit.

if i drop some more I will drop turbos as well again.

we will see so far I have no sample but it seem the run bad is following me wherever I go :)

Tonight I caught up a bit of EV fortunately. Tomorrow I might replace the turbos by some $2

Yeah, that's a pretty tiny sample I guess. How are you finding the player skill? Pretty fish or?

player skill? just lol

I think I have quite a few leaks in terms of ICM however I feel pretty good in terms of ranges of opponents and push fold ranges.

tonight played another 20 games and made about 15BI or so. Still feels like I ran bad but I can't complain (or can I _evil: )

RL: I have put my house on the market in preparation for the move to Bath and I have been working shitloads of hours. so I have really little time for myself. But well life is good and things are falling into place. what more do you want heh?

I was away for the weekend. Back with the family in Plymouth. My 5yo was performing in a show and had 3 performance over the weekend. The second car also broke down yesterday leaving us with no car for the rest of the weekend.

on Friday morning before work I played a few DON hyper as there was not much else running and broke even for the session

I have also received today my second $10. That a good return that I am getting on my $50 deposit.

I am back tonight and will play a few games.

well nut straight vs nut flush , nut flush vs straight flush so not great... maybe I just feel like I am running bad :)

EV wise since I have start I am spot on EV but there seem to be loads of coolers.

I am winning at the moment and with the bonus clearing the roll builds up slowly.

I have also booked my first coaching with Tim as I think I have many leaks especially in terms of ICM so I ma really looking forwards to this.
