Not updated for a while been waiting for a winning session but have had no success over the last month, didn't manage to qualify for any Wcoop events, qualified for a few events in the Winamax series but no decent cashes to report. 

Last weekend represented 5 years since I came second in the Sunday Million on Pokerstars it seems like a lifetime ago can't even qualify for it nowadays. Can only dream of getting a $100k plus score at the moment.
On the bright side my bankroll management has been excellent I'm taking my time and only playing up to $20 games and satelites to bigger tournaments. If it was my own money I'd have probably gambled it off by now but still confident in my ability and that I can slowly grind it back up.

Bankroll is currently $920 on Pokerstars, 840 Euro's on Pokerstars.FR and 700 euro's on Winamax.
For my non poker backers, the UK government plan to start a new tax on the poker sites and Winamax and Stars.FR are pulling out of the UK market so have to withdraw the Euro's from those sites will put it all back on Pokerstars to use between there and Full Tilt and continue to slowly grind for the next few months if everyone's happy with that.

The last month I've been looking for a job again and usually can get a contract within a week or two but the IT market seams very quiet at the moment and have failed to secure anything as of yet, but a lot of my days at the moment are spent scouring job sites and also realized that I've neglected my IT skills during the five years I played poker for a living so have downloaded loads of IT training from pirate bay and have been watching loads of videos and will start taking MCP exams again shortly. 
Don't think my current MCP's in Windows 95 and Windows NT attract the employers anymore, lol.
Hopefully will be settled in a job soon and be able to put some more hours into playing again.
