i lost £4k thursday night with 4 x £1000 buyins on £25/£50. friday and tonight there were no tables that i fancied but i only looked a couple of times. i couldn't be bothered to grind a little lower. i'll see how i feel tomorrow but i do expect to play a bit.

you play 10/20 and you seem to win (a bit), yo play 25/50 and you just lose.

ED, FFS.

Are you not seeing any correlation with your min buyin shots at 25/50.

You've lost 12100 pounds or about 25,000 dollars this week doing it.

I seriously doubt that you know what it is to grind.

You need to listen to peoples advise on this blog; get a new site running where players don't know your MO, stop min buying and also stop playing higher limits.

I really can't understnad your need to make XYZ amount of money now rather than getting a decent living at 5/10 or 10/20.

"I really can't understnad your need to make XYZ amount of money now rather than getting a decent living at 5/10 or 10/20."

I think I understand why. Because there is a chance Ed can spin up a small bankroll into a big one by getting lucky short-stacking high stakes games. If he were to play 1000s of hands at middle stakes every week, there is next to no chance he'd show a profit. Buying a few lottery tickets, although obviously -ev, could make you a fortune. Buying one million tickets would be a very bad idea.

Hit the nail squarely on the head.

There is no way Ed is a profitable player - even at the .5/1 level.

Have you guys not read the spewy plays he's made?

agree with seymour. you were winning at the 10/20. Why not jump back in there and rack up a few wins. Minimum buyins are easily called at the 25 50. Those guys will call down 3rd pair and cannot be bluffed off hands like the 10 20 guys can.

Sounds like the same old story ... almost boring.
