£50
£50 more added to the roll. i played for ages today, and played alot of tables, at one point i was down around £3000, and at peak 2 hours later i was up about £800, but finished after a good 5 or 6 hours playing today, £50 up. i managed to get to $10k on a $10/$20 6 seater before losing a $2900 pot right at the end with a stupid overbet on the end with nothing. something like $1200 into $530. he insta-called with top pair. i got out soon after that.
yesterday i won £2100. i was down or even for a long time and then had some very positive variance near the end. A9 v 1010 aip on £5/£10 for a £2k pot. and 3 or 4 50/50s (preflop and on the flop) that i won. it could have been more but i lost a £3400 pot late on with 66 v KK all in on a 36J (i think) flop, a K hitting the river. i did the same to him earlier though and one other person so it was probably deserved =(.
the roll is £10.6k. i'm going to double or bust soon though, i'm playing too loose and putting alot of hours in so it's inevitable.

hope you triple it!
Anyone else see the heading and think Ed was going to say that was what he had left of his roll?
Lol luckyjim yes that was my first thought too! Ed mate, I know we all can't tell you toffee, but fer gods sake get rid of that rediculous double or bust mindset!!
You've got a £10k roll, thats just about enough to play full buy-in games at $5/10. A level at which stacks of money can be made. Hear what jim says don't just stick with betfair & crypto, they have small player pools, try Ipoker or full tilt for example.
Yeah Jim I thought the same.
Concur with hj79, Ed how about a day on the 5 10 tables just to see how it goes. Just an experiment. A 10k roll at this level is a firm foundation for winning major bucks.
if u bust ur 10k all it means is that if u carry on its 10k more u got to earn...just be patient, u have made £1600 (i think) which is not bad for a couple of weeks, plus ur rakeback. if thats not enough then ur obv a secret millionaire...or gonna inherit it someday and this means nothing to you.
if so do what u want lol!
LOL nice attitute, assume you will double it or lose it al... Just transfer the $10k to me, I'll play 200NL with it and you get 50% of the profits ;)
Rock and Roll! :)
Why not enter the wsop?????? better than busting it!!! think positive or play Quiet Lion HU on FTP limit im sure you could beat him!! ROOOOOOAR
hey ED... I have to 2nd what hj79 said, drop that mindset.
Also why don't you play on bigger sites like fulltilt or party poker?
-Island grinder
Try Microgaming as well.
Stan James operate on the network so that's a nice British bookie for you as you seem to prefer playing the British sites.
Hey Ed,
Let me tell you what grinding is like...
It's ##@$ boring. Having 20 buy ins at a low limit game. I play for a couple hours and I start getting these restless pains through my limbs that just get worse and worse until I have to get off.
I suspect other grinders must cope with it with drugs or alcohol, and I won't go down that path.
Much more fun to live life on the edge and go double or nothing, those pains don't turn up, probably because the adrenalin starts pumping.
The bad news though Ed, is that if you live life on the edge, stopping gambling will be forced on you sooner or later, I certainly hope later and I do hope that you have a terrific gambling career.
Take up br management and you will force the boringness on yourself, but then, you will never run out of money like you do now.
But hey Ed, go go go, sell the house and go make millions.
hey ed, i like your blog. been reading it for ages. you got balls mate, reminds me of that greek fella who made 40million from 50 in vegas in the 90s. keep at it, but dont get carried away for fuks sake. you got the mettle, now show them the benjamins.
i play on littlewoods a lot. whats your screen name there, is it bluescouse, cos thats what ya said ages ago....
i got a blog too, i linked yours, link mine too if ya like

Many people take no care of their money till they come nearly to the end of it, and others do just the same with their time.
Think about it carefully.
Best of luck!
Gone quite again, Ed.
should we be worried?
