Today was a bitter sweet day, in the middle of the morning session i start getting connection issues i suppose with my ISP. The tables start lagging and i bubble 1 STT cause i was sitting out (i clicked i'm back every hand and still was folded, wich was very frustrating.... That's why i almost always have played with a conservative BR management)

First we mannage to salvage the STT session and in the afternoon we hit a 50x multiplier on a Expresso on Winamax and took it down.

Here are the results of the day on both sites (i make an alias on PT4)

Spoiler

Do you ratter the alias chart or to be separated by site?, let me know in the comments below.

That purple looks so sweet.

The BR end up
$83.21 on 888
$17.06 on Winamax
$0.79 ACR
$0.04 Natural8
Total $ 101.10

Cheers guys, gl at the tables and EV.

Decided to transfer $90 to Pokerstars from 888 and played some spins in the process....

Since i have 45 BIs on 2s i played some spins and ran pretty good.

Spoiler

Also played some STTs and MTT on 888 and ran not so good. i did not hit the hands i needed to get a good stack to run deep. This is the worst session so far, nothing to worry about...

Spoiler

also played some expressos to warm up before my PS spin session and went pretty good ( a little less than 10 BIs up)

Spoiler

I will mostly be playing spins and expressos on Winamax and Pokerstars and STTs and MTTs on 888 poker...

Lost 2 HUGE pot on the mistery bounty mtt on 888, hopefully we could run deep in this in the future.

Spoiler

May the variance be with you all. gl and ev

Busted 18th in the MB 1.5k GTD $1.00 but we got the luck to collect the mistery bounty of $150.00 wich was very nice and a lot of bust for our bankroll.
Bitter sweet ending since we lost a cooler QQvsKK 30bb deep.

888poker BR 203.14
Winamax $29.44
Pokerstars $94

Total $ 326.48

Some nice progress being made here...

Are you worried about the time waste when you could be playing higher stakes or is it all about crushing the challenge?

If the latter then I guess it makes sense :)

Well done so far though!

You should check out my blog - it's actually the opposite of yours! I write more for fun and entertainment, and occasionally offer some good advice. Anyway, take care buddy and good luck at the tables!

Bankroll update Week 7

Start BR this week: $155.31
current BR: $ 328.83

Goal 1k

Yes i play a lot on 888poker since there are a lot of freerolls there and since it was the 1st platform i manage to get some $$$ now it will be the easiest to grow the roll. I remember that few years back 888poker had a promotion where you deposit 20 and they gave you 20. For sure a nice site to reactivate since you already have some $$$ there.

There are a lot of freerolls around the internet so you almost could complete this challenge in any of them (some easiear cause the frerroll offers there are out there)

Happy Easter

Its all about the satisfaction of crushing the challenge, i am still playing my regular sessions in other sites so i don't worry bout the hours i invest in completing the challenge.

@aceonetheriver: I will pay a visit to your blog, always nice to read a different way to look at poker if it's quite the opposite of this blog.
@Foldem54: hope you find the content entertaining and if useful so much better.

cheers all and gl at the tables.

PS. I apologize if my english is not very good, i am not a native speaker and writing it has been hard for me since always.

I remember trying to build a $0 bankroll back in the day on FTP after seeing how Chris Furgeson did it, I got as high as $16 I think and then lost it all playing 2nl :facepalm: :appl:

On the other hand, our local poker site, ssp, I've built a solid BR only with money they gave me on my Bday and haven't had to deposit anything since.

GL with the challenge.

Still progressing along very nicely I see. There will be days or weeks even where it will feel like you are not progressing.

Just keep grinding on and the results will come. You're already crushing it!

Not much happende this week, i had to travel to another town for a cousins weading and could not played as much as i wanted to. So the BR is still growing, we are around 450ish and made some changes in the BR distribution.

I decided to transfer some of the money to PS and leave some in the other platforms, this is because in stars i can play mtts and mttsngs to fill up my playing habits and make $$$ faster, still be playing some of the good mtts there are in 888 and other sites.

Will be posting some results later in the day (today or 2morrow) since today is restday and i havent planned my schedule for May yet.

Cheers and gl at the tables
