Four Figure Session

…I nearly did it. In negative profit :(

I have recently been pleased with my ability to not to look at my running totals in play. The upside of not hovering over the HEM table manager icon and seeing how much you’re down is that it shouldn’t impact on your play right?. The downside is that it’s hard to operate a stop loss! Given I have been mixing in 200nl with 100nl, what is a good stop loss anyway? I’ve been thinking about this and I guess I’m going to go with the “don’t look” option unless I feel I’m getting obliterated.

Talking of 200nl, it hasn’t really happened like I’d hoped. I still have a couple of hundred hands to review but in general I believe I played the same as my (winning) 100nl style and just run a little colder than normal. I have a decent little new deal on ipoker that I’m going to give a whirl from next week so I may drop 200nl for a few weeks owing to splitting the roll for a short period to see if the deal works out better than my current one. I really can’t be arsed moving funds around every two minutes and I don’t like moving the lot as it’s a pain waiting for it to clear into Neteller. Anyway, I’m looking forward to getting all that lovely first deposit bonus money and shafting the tables reserved for ‘beginners’ (assuming my deal lets me play them – they were goooooood at the start on previous skins).

Some ‘Win’ for you:
Snooker season is now finished and I won 22/23 singles (plus 3/3 in the cup) and 16/17 doubles (plus 2/3 in the cup). Finished top of my divisional rankings by a mile and in the top 10 of the league, even with our hefty divisional points adjustment. Top break in my division too. Easy game.

Pool season is also now finished. We finished 5th which is poor for us. However, I won 75% which no-one who played any significant amount bettered. I also drank more than everyone else put together. Probably.

Football. The mighty Spurs are ramming it up all the ’Sky Four’ at the moment. I’m sure whoever gets the refereeing gig at Old Trafford this weekend will readdress the balance (Mr Webb anyone?). Since my post a few weeks back where I urged Michael Dawson to return from injury and Mr Capello to bloody well pick him, he’s only gone and shown exactly why he should be going to the World Cup with a couple of imperious performances in front of the cameras. Now various journo’s are getting on the bandwagon too, could it happen? You heard the call here first remember!!

The Sun. Its out and a welcome addition to the sky it is too. I’m hoping to get the bike out this week and enjoy it while it lasts. That white thing that sits in the corner of my living room (edit: its called a Wii fit board apparently) tells me I’ve lost 7 pounds since I last stepped on it. I cant even comprehend how, but I’ve min raised it 7 pounds and think that bluff has made me pot committed.

One little bit of fail to finish... They’ve cut part of my local bus route so it no longer stops outside the snooker club. This means i’ll have to start driving and ditch the beer. That 7 pounds might just be possible.
