The way you quoted me makes it seem like I have a weak chatgame which is not the case ofc.

My chat with the micro/low stakes reg who was trying to bully me was something like "Don´t try that against big guys, microstakes guy " or something like that.
Just because you scared of not being able to become a highstakes reg u did this interpretation I was saying something about highstakes regs and trying to make the lowstakes reg give up or something. Don´t let ur own fears change the way u perceive things

As you can see in the best mtt thread ever of this forum I don´t have to say nothing in my defense when I clearly berate highstakes regs more often than I do with lowstakes regs, tbh I do have a nice word of support to some of them when I see some low stakes reg who are much better than some highstakes regs I know and it happens in a regular basis.

Btw this chat was in 55$ deepstack with 2 tournaments left on sunday, last 2 tables and I guess I don´t need to say how boring this tournament could be, so some chat it´s allways welcome

Don't worry, I'm more than aware of what the reality of mtt variance is like. It's not like I see these current results as standard, just gotta make sure I never lose the heart and keep battling.

It wasn't really a cry, you're definition of a "funny chat" is somewhat different to mine. I was simply highlighting the lack of class on display and how some guys (not just pointing the finger at you) feel like being decent at poker = being a decent human being, however you conduct yourself both at and away from the tables. Seen a fair few live guys feel they deserve that sort of entitlement, pretty LOL.

Bullying would be find pictures of you and harrassing you, or insulting your family etc. All he did was take a bluff spot without any use of the chatbox. He was simply playing cards.

Not sure where you got the second bit from, whether I was a 45 cent sng grinder or played at higher stakes than yourself my interpretation would still be the same. My view on this matter has nothing to do with where I am at or what I am doing. My supposed "fears" have nothing to do with your attitude and behaviour

About time I updated this.

Grinded the past 6 out of 7 days, took a day off on Thursday to go see a friend in London for his birthday. temperature was like 25 degrees, no wind so picked a really nice day for it.

Started an in stable leaderboard which has got a fair few of us fired up, with prizes for the top 5. Works on the basis of bonus points for finishing on an ft, top then 1st, which is pretty frustrating as my week has been a bag of 4th-9th place finishes.

As for how my month has been going, it's been about break even so it all comes down to today, Sunday funday making or breaking June. will finally be playing a liveament on Thursday, off to Dusk Till Dawn for the £1k Highroller which hopefully won't be bad value with many of the UK guys out in Vegas.

Also randomly stumbled across this article in Italian: http://www.assopoker.com/online/gil3...el-2015_58316/

Google translator is pretty sketchy but the jist of it is very nice and positive, having such articles written about me is very new and exciting to me. Hopefully I can continue to try and make waves within the MTT community.

Apologies for the delay in post, obviously running bad makes it more difficult to post....

Jaded June

Obviously we can't book a winning month every single time throughout the year (who knew):



Just -$2k for the month but seemed to have run worse since then running into July. 5th in the Big $8.80 last month was an obvious sigh but was happy shipping The Crocodile on 888 and the $100 20k on Party. Pretty happy that I was knocking on the door of 700 games within the month considering I don't mass table and took a week off.

Since then I seem to be booking an absolute bunch of 3rd-9th place finishes which doesn't help create profit.

However some good news, we have just got the stable up and running and added our first couple of guys. Feel like this should be a really fun project that I'm looking forward to which should motivate myself to set a better example when it comes to grafting on and off the table, as well as learning alot about myself and improving my people management skills.

Couple of early sweats this July. Shipped the $109 Hurricane for 2.something thou, then came 2nd in the crocodile for 2.7k with 4.1k. Really annoyed me as I had villain all in at risk 8 times headsup but wasnt able to win any, eventually losing a flip for what was pretty much the lot.

In the same night as the croc found 5th in the Big $55 for 5k or so, but was another what could have been after losing AK<A8 for a huge CL pot to take it 3 handed where villain committed pretty solid ICM suicide having 3b/c when there was a shorty still in, we had about 37bb a piece.

Still things are certainly looking up result wise. However coaching wise things have come to an abrupt halt as 2 of the 3 guys we have recruited for the small stakes stable are based in Portugal who have a very uncertain future in regards to online poker.

Annoyed I haven't updated this sooner but decided I would wait until my last grind of the month (yesterday) As I'm off to Spain in like 4 hours for a holiday. Btw not sure what constitutes as a sweat these days, 5 figs up top?

Had a long weekend of grinding, few finals but unable to convert. Made some butchers on some FT's which have been very annoying but only found out after running them through ICMizer, at least playing midweek ensures I avoid those situations on sundays when I do find some sick run.

Month in Review - July



A weak month results wise all because of all the 3rd-9th place finishes I have been finding, as well as 8th in the Big $162 in the last mtt of the month which was somewhat painful.

Started the low stakes stable and has began to pick up some momentum, it's noticeable how much great talent there is out there at the low levels ready to move up, kind of confirmation of how tough all levels are right now. Expecting to get much busier with this on August and expect to learn alot about myself which is an exciting prospect, continue to love the grind which is a very good sign for the future.
