The Heat Is On!

Three weeks into the month of August and my run good from last month has carried over into this month. I've had my biggest monetary cash to date on Friday of $891 on PokerStars in the $5.50+R NL Hold'em [$15K Gtd] tournament finishing in 5th position in a field of 1,053 players (see screenshot below - note: my screen name for PokerStars is CelticMist07). At the moment I'm on a bit of a heater but I'm keeping my feet firmly on the ground and staying with my bankroll management strategy as variance can soon come up and bite you in the ass!

5th of 1053 entrants!

I'll be back at the end of the month to bring you my review of August.

Until next time....Good Luck at the Tables!

July Review

July has been a successful month for me with profits exceeding $700. My volume was lower than normal but this is because I am playing more MTT's with larger fields and satellite tournaments. I feel I've been playing well in tournaments this month and my confidence is high at the moment but I know all too well that this can change very quickly due to variance.

Sharkscope Stats for July

I'm currently on holiday with my family in the UK so I won't be able to play much poker this week.

Hopefully I can be even more successful in August so until next time....Good Luck at the Tables!

Another Day....Another MTT Win!

Just a quick update to let you know that last night I managed to take down another MTT on Sky Poker - the £1k GTD Mini Open. I'm on a bit of a heater the last couple of weeks and I'm happy where my game is right now.

1st of 311 entrants!

Until next time....Good Luck at the Tables!

Mixed Bag

Last week was a bit of a mixed bag for me in terms of results but I felt I played fairly well all week and I'm not too concerned of the results as we all know we shouldn't be results orientated.

My results from last week are:-

• Cashed in 1 out of 4 satellites
• Cashed in 3 out of 11 MTT's

Some good news though....last night I decided to take a rest from the Merge network and play a £2 bounty tournament on another of my poker sites (Sky Poker) and took down the tournament which had 104 entrants. Figures below include the bounties collected.

1st of 104 Entrants!

It's less than a week now before I go and visit my family over in the UK so I'll be trying to jam in as much poker as I can this week.

Until next time....Good Luck at the Tables!

WSOP Update....

Unfortunately, Sam Holden, crashed out of the WSOP Main Event in 55th place but still takes home a nice pay cheque of $128,384 to soften the blow!

Four Cashes & A Crash!

The last week has seen me cash 4 times and it could have been 5 if the Merge network hadn't crashed while I was on the final table of a satellite for the $109 tourney ticket. I did get refunded though and received a cash amount according to my position in the tournament. So, not including that tournament, my results for the week for MTT's are as follows:-

• Cashed in 2 out of 10 tournaments
• Cashed in 2 out of 4 satellites

I also played several Single-Table Sit & Go's which I made a small profit from. All in all, I'm satisfied with the way I played this week but there's always room for improvement. Obviously, I would like to increase the volume of games I play and I will endeavor to do this but I can only dedicate 3-4 nights per week to poker.

WSOP

Sam Holden

At the time of writing this, there is only one Brit left in the World Series Of Poker (WSOP) Main Event and that is Sam Holden. After his 9th place finish last year he is one of 97 remaining entrants left in the tournament from a starting field of 6,598. The winner will receive the WSOP Main Event Bracelet and a cool $8.5 million in prize money. Good luck Sam and bring that bracelet home to blighty!







Until next time....Good Luck at the Tables!

Nice One!

Told you it wouldn't be long before my next post ;-)

Entered a satellite tourney on friday for $5 and won a $109 tourney ticket. Used the ticket for an MTT last night and managed to cash in 8th place out of 122 entrants for $390 :-)
