    Just a small win in a $6 90 player ko, $144 as its the 1st for a while, hope you dont mind me sharing it. Ive moved from Ladjokes Twisted Evil to Full of tits, sorry tilt.
    I like the mtts but its not easy to go deep,been playing at low level, because there is loose on there and beats abound. Ive been getting frustrated, and bankroll has suffered any advice would be warmly welcomed. Very Happy

    hey hey crowfoot m8

    n1 m8, winning whatever you are playing is always great m8, keep it up! And we certainly dont mind you bragging - in fact we encourage it lol. Wins are much more fun if you can tell everyone lol. God knows poker players get enough losing runs, we deserve to celebrate the wins woop!

    There's some good double stack mtts on full tilt, well worth keeping an eye out for those, keeps a bit of the bingo element out of the game, and also discourages the bingo players from entering in the first place i find. Not sure about the low end buy ins, but i know theres a couple of nice $22+2 in the mid range, certainly worth a look.

    when you move to a new site its always best to stick to lower stakes than you are used to for a while anyway, just till you feel a bit more comfortable with the site and features etc.

    good luck on the tables m8, and hope to see you drop in here often!

    good job

    My advice for the low stakes donk fests is to see as many cheap flops as you can early doors, keep it reasonably tight still but if you get hands with good potential and a chance to see a cheap flop, get in there, I detest open limping later in mtt's but I have no problem doing it in the first couple of levels with hands with good show down equity. You can build a good stack but just dont get involved in losing 1/2 ur stack chasing down weak flops where you caught bottom pair and try to improve.

    As the game goes on many of the bingo players will get knocked out and you can open the agression as the blinds rise, it is often the case that weaker players have no idea how to handle an agressive player.

    If you can afford it, try a session with somebody like Banksy who is an efficianado when it comes to late game agression at any level.

    Hey gem, have u thought about playing in the dark??
    Im saying this as ive noticed in a couple of posts about you knocking urself down for not being aggressive enough!!

    Get a stick-it note and put on ur screen where ur cards are. Drop into a small tourney and have fun!!!
    It really does show you how postion, aggression works without even thinking about ur cards!!

    Its a good little exercise to do and helps to show you how much information your missing out on if your concentrating tooo much on ur own cards!!

    Ive raised people preflop and got them to fold
    Ive raised got called, they donk bet the flop and ive come over the top without haing a clue what cards ive got and they fold... its quite funny!!

    let me know ur thoughts and if you try it!!
