He is a former member here, he got banned when he started playing the $7s for general rudeness. As you can see from his thread, he hasn't changed much! Gets chat banned for a month, gets it back and it's gone again within 12 hours.
For anyone interested, here is my graph after just under 1k games on PS and FTP this month. Made the switch due to lack of time and running like 20+ BIs below EV which sucks but defo enjoying these games, hopefully when I get more games in the upwards slope will be a bit prettier

Nice john.
See how you feel after another 2k games or so if the swings continue. I think the master of these is purely handling the variance, once you can do that you're way on your way given how soft these games are! Mines like yours at the minute in terms of $$ EV. Frustrating; but "normal"

So, this thread kinda died after I stopped playing MTTs last year. I decided it's time to revive it.
This summer, I graduated from the University of Sheffield with a 2:1 in English Language and Linguistics but decided I didn't want to jump straight into a career. I'm currently living with 3 friends I made from poker in Sheffield, working a part time job in a shop and grinding online in most of my spare time. I got a new backer around 4 months ago and have had a great time with them. The group are called Pocarr and are one of the biggest stables around, with some of the biggest online winners in the world playing for them. In my first session with them, I shipped a $2 rebuy on Stars for just shy of $2000 and haven't looked back since. There's been downswings, naturally and my initial plan of sustaining myself solely from poker became too stressful for me which is why I got a part time job. A couple months back, I also had my biggest ever win online, shipping the Bigger $4.40 on Stars for $4,425!
Anyway, would be great to be able to share the ups and downs with you guys again. I'm currently backed for the following games:
Stars and FTP: Up to $13.75 freezeouts and $5 rebuys. Also all "Bigs" up to the Big 33 and also the Saturday Eliminator $27.
888: Up to $25 freezeouts and $6 rebuys.
I'm currently on a bit of a downswing, down around $1200 this month but the last few months have all been winning ones, so let's hope we can turn that around. Had two final table bubbles today and already had 3 cashes in the Micro Millions so here's hoping we can hit a big score in one of those! Need some spending money for my 25th birthday which is in 2 days!
Anyway, I've gone on long enough. Would be awesome to get some discussions going on in here again, so any questions, fire away or just drop me a line to say hi so I know I'm not talking to myself

Played a small session after my birthday lunch today. Shipped a $4 rebuy on 888 for just over $2100 which puts us up on the month. Also playing the Big $27.50 and got a big stack early and ITM in the $3.30 Micro Millions 6max. If anyone wants to hop on the rail, it's Jonnywatford on Stars
