down about $10 for the day. day could of been better. made a few mistakes

Post the hands Richard. Would give me a lot of confidence to see the kinds of mistakes a pro like yourself makes.

No poker for me today. I am going to play in the $5.50 Mini Sunday Marathon in 15 hours time.

Definitely not a pro yet. I won’t be posting hands, takes too long to search for them, especially non holdem hands.

I have commented on my mistakes in the tournament summaries in this thread.

When was that? Hope Wales wins the Six Nations

hey rich

the format of your thread is great, no need to change it. good luck and keep updating!

I have a really good feeling about the Sunday $5.50, Richard. How many hours now until it starts?

this is my poker schedule for the next 2-3 weeks, until i am profitable in all of these games!

will be keeping away from Omaha for the time being, only playing it in HORSE and 8 Game.

https://scontent.fakl2-1.fna.fbcdn.n...86&oe=5CE37239

Im not gonna click that but the wierder the format, the less players the better. Play every 2-7 tourney you can afford (is it pot limit or limit?). learn badugi if you dont and if ps has it.

you are going to win a tournament. it will be 2-7 or O8.

keep up updated and good luck.

and burntosuck
