- The Jackal 20k Update
Ok so I promised a few weeks ago to write a daily blog but this month has just not been possible for me. I have undertaken even more work and I haven’t even played poker in ages as well. Although starting 1st April I will be doing a 100-1 challenge in which I try to [...]

- Jackal Update
I know I keep saying that I will post every day but you know how it is. I cannot seem to bring myself to find the time to write long posts. So what I plan to do is write short snappier posts and make them more often. That way they will not be boring and [...]

Well at the end of week 1 we are [...]

- Jackal Update : Day 5
I have some upto date figures after five days of The Jackal and we are ahead by $211 after 15 hours of play and 3749 hands. So it is $5.62/100 hands at the moment but that is four tabling. So we are at 11.24bb/100 which just HAS to be too high due to the small [...]

- Jackal update
We are into day 4 of the Jackal trial and I am pleased to report initial success. We are already five full buy-ins ahead at +$256. This seems too good to be true and seems way ahead of what our Sklansky Dollars should be although I haven’t seen any data yet so you are as [...]

- Nothing to report on the Jackal
I did say that I would give daily reports on the progress of The Jackal but unfortunately that means often having nothing to report. I didn’t get an update last night so the Jackal is as it was yesterday and is ahead by $144.
However I will be talking about my own poker play today and [...]

- A good day yesterday
Everything seemed to go my way yesterday, I had someone contact me from ages ago with some money that they owed me that I had actually written off so that was nice. Then the job that needed doing on my car ended up being nothing to worry about.
Then I get news that The Jackal won [...]

- The Jackal Day #1
Here we go then on my biggest adventure of the year and I am not even playing……how about that. The Jackal road test starts today and I haven’t been in touch with my guinea pig yet so I don’t know if he has started or not. The test involves four tabling NL50 six max and [...]

- Apologies for not posting
I have to apologise for not posting lately as often as what I have promised. But the good news……starting 1st Feb is that this will be a daily blog except for the 14th Feb when I am taking the missus somewhere special for Valentines Day.
Things have been really hectic lately and I have finally got [...]

- The Jackal is doing the business
I am $414 ahead so far with the Jackal but I am running into difficulties in playing enough hours and this may be even more of a problem next month. I have managed to play around 2.5k hands so the earn rate so far is $16.56/100 hands. This equates to $4.13/100 per table or just [...]

- So Funny I Rolled
I was playing a NL400 heads up last night when the following hand came up. I was in the big blind with 10s-6s. I had bought in for $400 and had watched a certain player for a while. They had run well and had amassed around $1000. I was a little up on them [...]

- Please don’t quote me
I had an e-mail yesterday from what seemed a charming lady asking me for the details of Paul McKenna’s weight loss book and program
Please ladies and gents, I am not a health and diet advisor so no more e-mails on how to lose weight as I can’t even be certain that my weight [...]

- Not quite millionaire’s row
I had an e-mail yesterday asking me about “The Jackal” and when it will be available. Well firstly I am not even sure if it ever will be although I expect the answer to that to be yes although I recall saying that last year for “The Vulture”. Funnily enough I got the [...]

- 6 max system: The Jackal
Recent readers of Pokersharkpool will have missed my challenge last year to show that a player with little bankroll could make a living wage playing NLHE cash games. Just to fill in recent readers, I made $25/hour multi-tabling NL50 full-ring games over 75k hands.
When you spend most of the time folding then this isn’t difficult [...]
