Dire day, didn't play well enough and procrastinated to the point where 8k was all I could manage. Wish they'd update the leaderboard more regularly so I can work out if I can calm down the volume or if I need to up it or whatever. Will know for sure tomorrow whether I'll still be in Malta for October. Got a room sorted (with a bird!!), just need to man up and decide.

There's going to be either one very pissed off Dutch man or one very pissed off sibling...

Just picked a random page in this thread from about a year ago and read through it. It's scary how utterly horrendous at poker I was back then compared to now, and I'm still not very good! Games are certainly getting tougher

Also any of the old faces still lingering? Don't be strangers if so

https://gyazo.com/24aa9927c3546ab20abfd2ea6d2094d3 looks like it Jalfrezi! God I was horrendous. Still am haha.

Good to see some old faces, any other lurkers from the $1k bankroll for 50nl glory days feel free to say hi.

Also, gonna be sensible and jump on that flight tomorrow. I have got to think long term, and with a decent month & decent rakeback I have a head start on my goals. I'll be back in 2016, make no mistake.

Spoiler:
Also cannot be dicked playing poker today. 2.5k hands and I legit think I'm done.

Done with poker today, horrendous volume but what****ingever! Played 20 speed for a couple of hours and right at the 2500 mark is where the 50 started. Felt like I played really well today!

First 4ball in 300 hands (lol sample size). Tanked for ages OTT while a fish was like "oooh big pot" and then told me not to slowroll after the hand

                Haha thanks. Fortunately though my face doesn't actually look like that; it's just the front camera on my phone that works and it's really not great at all. Plus I only had like 4 hrs sleep

                Back home, not as miserable as I thought. I've had a great month so got a superb head start on where I aim to be for 2016. First goal is making this CPT package, and then I'll formulate a plan for the rest of the year. This thread has been great fun lately. Thank you all for that!

                This is what the Report Post button (red triangle to the left of every post) is for. If you think mods read every post in this forum, well, let's just say you're kidding yourself.

                But someone else reported it, which is why I'm here.
