Glgl mate.....great schedule....got a good feeling about today....it could be the one!!

[mporter123]

Just about a breakeven session. Min cashed the MM main event and a deep run in an $11. Will do the numbers tomorrow.

[mporter123]

So played yesterday from 4pm - 1am. I was initially just intending to play just a few tournaments but ended up with a decent schedule that meant a late finish, mainly due to the Micromillions main event.

FPP hyper satellite was annoying. Lost A10
Didn"t get going at all for the first 3 and a half hours of the main event then heatered up to 60K. Lost a 100K pot about 500 people off the bubble AK
Finally, the most frustrating, 17th out of 900 odd runners in an $11. BRUTAL! $1.6K up top. Shoved J9hh into 44 with 9bbs and somehow missed the turn and river with a gutshot, flush draw and overs. Seem to have had a gross number of 10th-20th place in +800 runner fields.

Rest of the session was crap. Cashed the Hotter $16.50 and bricked everything else. Think I was down about $10 on the session, numbers later.

Won"t be playing much at all in August, lots of busy weekends and 5 live poker tournaments - Cardiff this weekend and Notts at the end of the month.

Perilously close to needing a top up. I know I am playing good poker, just need the planets to align.

wp mate....get it over to u tomorrow

[mporter123]

I have been thinking about making a couple of changes to this stake for a little while.

What I would like to propose is that I add Sit N Go"s to the stake alongside the regular MTT stuff. Also the stake starts a fresh working from a $1K roll - 50% backers, 50% mine - no markup, no makeup.

Couple of reasons for the changes:-

- There are times when I have some time to play poker but not the time to play an MTT schedule with an unknown ending. Adding in Sit N Go"s on a random week night when I have a few spare hours will allow me to increase volume on the stake ironing out some variance. Also Sit N Go"s have far smaller fields than my average field size in MTT"s - again iron out some variance.

- The reason for the roll change is just purely logistics. I will start the stake with exactly $1K in my Pokerstars account and then there will be no need for me to post exact schedules or mess about working out what everybody"s percentage equates to. A roll update every time I play with cliffs should suffice.

Stakes wise - I will still be playing stakes up to $16.50 MTT"s no matter where the roll sits. In reality my average session buy ins for MTT"s is usually around $6-8. I won"t be moving down stakes if the roll is halved. If we bust the entire roll then we will re-evaluate. As the roll grows we can continue to evaluate stakes.

Am interested in opinions on how to approach Sit N Go"s stake wise? $4.50"s? $3r? Any Sit N Go guys that can advise?

The change to the way we manage the roll would obviously mean an initial top up.

Any questions on the above then please ask, I am completely open on the best way to structure this. The reality is the stake will continue to be high risk, high reward but that"s the MTT game for you.
