WOW! Long time since I've wrote in this thread. Shows how well I'm doing on pokerstars lol.
Anyway, got a couple of significant results yesterday (not money wise but performance wise) Came second in a $1 180man hyper turbo for about $32 and i had a good run in the hot $0.55 $2.5k guaranteed last night. Finished 95 out of over 11k people I enjoyed that tourney, i felt good and i never got one suckout or bad beat against me (plenty the other way tho haha) So hopefully my lil break done the trick and i can start getting a few decent results on stars.

A long old slog last night/this morning! (about 6hours) Played "the big $4.40 and finished in 42nd out of 7237 for $54.71. I went out with QQ against AK all in preflop and the guy hit an A on the turn and a river K. Not grumbling tho. i could of went out a lot earlier. Was a good game with not too many donkey's getting lucky. I didn't suffer any really bad "bad beats" all tourney so i was pretty happy.

yeah thanks bud That's the best run I've had in an mtt on stars so far. been really struggling to get past the min cashing stages Dunno whether its me having patience issues or just due to the fact there are so many lucky donkeys on there lol. Hopefully this is a sign of better things to come And hopefully i don't go broke i have $290 on there now and I think I'm being pretty sensible with my bankroll. I'm not trying to make a fast buck by playing too high a limit on the cash tables like i used to lol.

well bullet one things for sure and that is poker is a bit ch and it is very difficult to try and play a long tournament with so many hands, against a bunch of crazy mofos that do seem to screw ones stack up eventually and end up min cashing, but there are thous rare runs when everything goes smoothly.
just have to accept it for what it is and love the game if not yull hate it and never want to play`!

Good point matey I have been tempted to move my money back onto a smaller site. i like the smaller fields better but i might just stick it out on stars for a bit longer. I must be due a FT soon lol
