"you don't have to swin faster than the shark, Just faster than the guy swimming next to you"

The above maxim has been Quite fitting in the infancy stage of my £1/2 trader voyage.
First day i got a new one torn, but since then i have been pleased a thow i have adapted to the new level.

On crypto there are a lot of players that know the game very well and are not very profitable to play with, but on the other hand there are an equal amount of donkeys that would not turn a profit in the 1c/2c limit games. Solution = target said donkeys and avoid the sharks.

I give each player i sit with a score out of 10, as to How they suit sitting on my table.

1= a player who i hate to have at my table, constantly snapping continuation bets
7= a player who lets me get away with murder on his blinds and calls flop folds turn a lot
10= a donkey whom i would swim the channel to play.

you can work out the inbetweens, So when i am scouting for a table i have to total the table points up and then decide if i am going to sit. Obv these figures are subject to fluctuation as many players at this level believe it or not are still learning.

so since the £-600 debacle

7/7/07 £+645
8/7/07 £-335
9/7/07 £+510

which is £+ 220 which is ok after my first day doink off.


MTTs

Played in the dtd trader freeroll on saturday night and won it, so i will be in newcastle for the gukpt on the 19th of july. Looking forward to the friday night piss up already with the lads i aint seen for a while. Should be good.

Also played the $50k on stars on Saturday and went deep before JJ v 88 AJ v QJ and QQv AT
all lost for big pots all in preflop. I couldnt survive after those.

Also cashed in the sunday $215 warm up on stars for $400 odd after running QQ into AA

Im back playing my A game and good things will hopefully be around the corner.
