Still going well Vladd,

Sorry I don't post more often, but really busy at the moment moderating/helping out around the forum etc.

I, like many others are still following your progress however.

Keep up the good work buddy,

Bart

We are monitoring your progress, Vladd :) Nice one, so far ... keep it going and good luck :f_cool:


Wow your volume seems sick to me. this challenge is interesting I hope you reach your goal and run good in the RPC as well :f_biggrin:


Wow this is sick. To be honest i didn't think you would make it but it looks like you will. Well good luck on the challenge and the tournament

now i feel even worse that i haven't gotten above $50 once i reached it a few weeks ago :f_cry:

Mult succes sa-l devastezi pe Negreanu acolo. Sa nu mai stie de capul lui! Si mie mi se pare ca lumea nu e foarte receptiva pe forum, presupun ca nu toata lumea poate scrie intr-un stil "calduros" pentru niste straini din cealalta parte a lumii care nu stiu mai nimic despre tine..


Hi Sir,

You really grind sick volumes, respect!!!

Good luck

Regards,
Addict

thank you all for the nice reply's , my br is at 865$ atm and i still have plenty of time... not sure if i will release the hole bonus tho.... unfortunatelly it looks like Negreanu will not attend anymore due to his poker million show.... i will not watch it anymore...in sign of protest ... Chris Moneymaker will come instead....don't really like him that much as a person and poker player...but i guess i cant do anything to make Negreanu to change his mind.... so now i'm hiting the tables...will play 500 sng s this week end.....that's the main plan... but it depends if i go out or not.... the fact is that i 'm mainly playing 3's because there isn't any traffic at all at the 6's and the 11's i was told from a fellow pokerstrategist that are somehow hard to beat ...in the past i was able to do that but my challenge obliges me to play it safely ...so i'm not going to play at all the 11's so that s pretty much what i'm doying at the time....fucking uni is consuming all my time...i hate it.... but i have some nice girls in my class so i think it isnt that bad ...after all


that does suck. not a big fan of chris moneymaker either xD

I hope you cash in the tournament though. would suck really bad if you didn't xD

about me cashing the tourney.... i want to say that this isn't my main objective...i will play to get deep .... i don't want to get into the money like a rat.... it s more a pride thing....i m not going to play scared money because.... i don't need that money for anything else...and i used to spend ...that much money in a week end clubbing and i wouldn't care less... the idea is that i don't want to invest my own money....wich is given by my parents.... into the tournament.... since i discovered pokerstrategy i never went broke.... so i only played my winnings.... all the time... i even bought some nice things out of poker so i don't really care about the money...it s about going big or going home...i know it s pretty bad brm to play 2500 sng s and then use the winnings to play one tournament but....i can always play those sng s again... and this tourney is only once a year.... also i could easily buy in for the tournament ....and not play anymore...as it s consuming lot s of time.... but i said that if i don't get 1100 $ i would not allow me to play....br at 866 $ 250 sng's to go till next chunk is released i think... i ll do it tonight and tommorow morning

i was thinking of making a video with me playing .....maybe a coach can make a session review, i m curios if you beginners can learn something.....from me... or maybe i can learn something...about ...my play...that isn't that good....i definately have some moves....that aren't standard ...and i'm very curious if they are good....some minus ev pushes but not really from... early pos....they give me a big edge while playing....as i noticed...

hi everybody...hope you're still following my progress i had a full week end ...and didn't manage to play a lot of poker...so today i started playing some 6's as i noticed there is some traffic in the night br update.... 990,70 $ still have'nt released next chunk of the bonus so it s only profit.... i have to play another 85 6 's to release 96 .... so i think i ll do it tommorow...that may be the end of my challenge so wish me luck....if i do it then it will be ...in less than 3 weeks ...so i think that s a nice thing

why? thanks for the nice (?) words....i even have 192 in bonus left to release that means 1000 sngs but maybe i can play 500 so i get 96 more... i still have 2 days left for the bonus... the key was ...to play only the 3 's i stayed away from the 11 s nasty swings.... because it have been a while...since i ve played those and i didn t knew if i can beat them anymore... so i grinded it out like a little rat


What I meant was - SICK VOLUME! I think you should be exhausted by now. Well done, you deserve a rest :f_cool:
