Firstly, thank you all for your replies on the other thread. As most of you know I have done my bank, and *this time it's serious*. lol. I appreciate words from people who have had the same happen and who’s advice is heeded.

Anyway to cut a long story short I am going to start with £200. Yes, £200. Which is exactly what I did on 19th September.

I managed to build it up to £8.5k playing cash, a lot of nl & pl heads up, and the occasional £300 or £120 sixpac in which I did usually very well. The only trouble for me is going to be *getting started*. Playing stakes I do not respect. The old advice of playing within your bank is going to have to be shelved. I am going to make sure I cash in the tourneys I play and leave the cash games in profit. And I'm also going to play a lot of heads up which is the main reason I built up that bank in a relatively short space of time.

So I am going to use this thread, as I don't have a blog, to post my progress. If it gets on your nerves then ignore it, but I need something to keep myself in check and look back at what / how I played. Feel free to be negative / positive/ whatever floats your boat.

SO: I am going on holiday on 28th October.

That’s 23 days away. I made 8.5k in 3 weeks so that’s the target no point in blathering about.

I'm closing the old book and opening the new one. This time the story will be different.

(So instead of UL GG WP, It will be NH, GG, VWP, Nice pot. (ty) Happy )

Thanks all. Cheers again.
