Don't post KK v AK AIPF hands man, I know it's your thread and you can post whatever you want but it seems like it's a massive waste of your time as well as the least interesting thing ever for this thread regs like us. Also I have no idea what you're doing with QcQx - flop seems a standard call but interested to know your thought process there. My best guess is you think he's only donking with Ax there and you think you can raise & triple off and get folds from anything he doesn't 3b? Still seems spewy though, especially on that run out.

GL with the package.

Thanks bud glad you like it! There's a few Scots that are floating about, defo get involved.

Woke up early yesterday, sat at 2 empty 50nl HU tables and 9 speed tables. Around 800 hands in a fish sat me at the £ HU table, added me as a friend, asked for 2 tables and proceeded to spank me. I quit after a few BI and only played another 700ish hands at 20nl after that.



The leaderboard has updated for CPT, I was a bit concerned my lack of volume in the last week would hurt me but I'm still doing fine...

Be aware of reverse bumhunting.
Happened to me. One guy was limping 33% of BTN's. I later found him on top of rake races, that busted him

Cheers guys, and yeah Fishtankz, serves me right for bumhunting. I think I was the bumhuntee.



Much better volume but not quite the 8k I was hoping for. No excuses tomorrow, as I had 5s tonight followed by the Scotland game. Couple of quick hands, not looking for feedback as they're just the biggest pots of the day.

Tribute to deeepz and blakkman and that glorious night in March...

            How are hands counted in the race? Only ones that reach the flop? It seems like you have played way more than they have counted during the race period.

            Yeah 'raked' hands, so anything postflop. If I was an unethical bastard I'd play HU and limp every hand with a friend and x down every flop but I'm not so I won't!

            The only saving grace is that Ireland beat Germany, so our chances of qualifying would've been very very slim. A lot of people are saying how it's our own fault etc, but the fact that Germany couldn't beat Poland or Ireland is the reason we are out. Can't wait to pump England in 2017 and make TDA cry.



            Absolutely miserable day. Pleasing volume but I didn't play anywhere near well enough to justify anything other than the above graph. The leaderboard has updated and it's fkn tight!

            I've gotta play football tomorrow in another city so that'll be about 5 hours wasted but I'm confident I can do this. Aiming for at least 8k tomorrow.

            Hello Welsh Witch, I'm not rebuilding my poker bankroll, it's my life roll that I'm getting sorted. I'm playing 20nl speed for a promotion to go to the CPT. I had initially intended to sell the package but now I'm really keen to go and have a good time. I'm already on a stake and the guys that stake me are great for my technical game 20nl doesn't seem too bad for bots, but 100nl definitely was last time I played. Having said that I played 100sp around March/April time and I wasn't as tuned in with my ranges back then. I definitely want to take another crack at it!

            Congrats on your nations' recent sporting success. Bit jealous!
