NOT A GOOD DAY
managed to turn my £10,100 roll into £1500 today. lost £1500 in the day and then a further £7100 tonight. i played $25/$50 only and against good players. i managed to get 99 v QQ aip and win that for a $7k+ pot, but lost a $15k pot aip QQ v AA. i'm very disappointed in the latter one, it was pretty obvious my hand was beat. the betting went $175 him, $550 me then about $2010 him and i put him all in. may not post for a few days now.

Fuck me m8.
If I had your loose image I would have shoved QQ too, that's just a cooler, unlucky.
You know, what suprises me the most is that you keep posting hands here were you went PFAI and always with a worse hand then your opponent.
How on earth do you think that you can become a winning player then?
I mean, I read your whole blog, but this is just bad, you had such a level and now the last month it's nothing but losses, caused by bad plays!
C'mon man!
how can you play nl5k with 10k br?
it's your own fault.
but hey, your blog is funny, lol.
fuck me pink
well shit my pantyhose
some of you sound surprised, despite having read the rest of Ed's blog. it always goes this way.
£1500 is enough for you Ed.
Try and have 10,000 by next post, that's only 2 1/2 double ups!
Ah well it is only money.
You can soon spin that 1500 up on 10/20.
All in.
you are soooooo rich
Why does anyone believe this clown. It is clear he is lying otherwise he would post legitimate hand historys instead of just telling "stories"...what a clown
He wouldn't bullshit you, you're his favorite turd.
i saw the QQ v AA i dont believe you misplayed it, on the BB vs button the money got to go in with QQ imo
I believe him as i watched him on Betfair 250/500 once.
Where he got up to 45k from about 15k ...but lost it all.
With a bankroll of 1500 you could easily start spinning £200 or £300 a day playing .50/1 nl and 1/2nl
Before the summer is out you could be rolling with 15k again.
I have put 7 days of consistant £200 - £500 days together at this level. Thing is I used to play exactly like you mate. Id have a few great days stacking up 5k or so and then Id jump on the 10 20 nl and even 25 50 nl and it wouldnt be long before guys with massive bankrolls would get me and Id be back at the beginning.
Warren Buffet, the multi billionaire in his book talks about the mentality you need to be rich and the same rules apply to poker. He says he is not interested in the guy who can turn the 1 million into 3 million in a day as this same guy can turn 5 million into 0 million in 1 day also. To play poker at the top level discipline and mental strength are key. A skillful poker player will win in the long run but taking coin flips all the time only ends one way. Even if you flipped 10k to a 100k the coin flip mentality will always leave you back at zero.
Prob with a mentor ir a coach you could be a top pro. Just a wee bit of discipline and ud be sorted. Simple money management and structured targets are the only way. Otherwise you will find yourself shutting down the laptop at the end of the night just having experienced a 10k loss and boy that is horribe. I have been there and this can f..k up your mind. Start afresh. You still have a roll here to get going again. Speaking to some guy on betfair rolling with close to mill who started with a 90 euro deposit 2 years ago.
Best of luck. Hope to see you playing soon
Lol @ asking Ed to play $.50/1 :D. It would be a cold day in hell. Interestingly though; what has happened to hollis? No posts for a while now, usually means busto right? Or has anyone spotted him terrorising the 250/500 games on betfair again?
your blog is so fucking sick.
Take some cash and spend the summer abroad working. Get some sun, get pissed, bang a few tourists.
so much of this has already been said so many times.The legends advice is spot on but will fall on deaf ears I fear.
where are thou brother?
Very nice blog!
Hes been around the last few days shortstacking crypto $25-50 tables
I have a feeling Legend is a reg on Betfair who's desperate to see Ed continue playing as he's cleaning up off him.
Correction he WAS shortstacking Crypto 25-50 we wont be seeing him on there for a while anymore.
You're still my boy blue! Im back blogging and could do with my blog being authenticated with a comment from the original degenerate himself, so feel free to pop by and make my day.
This guy is a cock. How many times in this blogs posts does ed say "managed to get it all in preflop" and invariably there shit cards. Its just like saying I will risk any two cards preflop because theres a chance I might win. Get a grip man. You cant win at any level playing like that. 100/200 or 0.01/0.02 you will go bust. Simple as that.
Hey Ed,
Have linked my new blog to you - if you have a minute to add me to your 'roll that would be great.
new one is at www.meltedfelt.com idea is to have an alternative look at poker news.
Cheers, Mark (plan3t Gong blog)
omg when will you learn cash is about a solid post flop game while a loose image will get you paid not being able to change gears unnoticed will leave you struggling you obv lack flop skills otherwise you wouldnt shove pf and take the worst of it in the name of aggression,
word from the wise change sites cos the big boys have you figured out
U should do the decent thing and just retire this blog. It's become as dull as hell, its hardly ever updated and when it is theres no connection with the readers. Bury it along with your poker "career"
last out, please turn off the lights and lock the door behind you. thanks.
Anyone seen ed online in last while. havent seen him on betfair in a while. Is he busto?
Hes hopefully spewing over some scally in Ibiza :D
