Hi guys,

Since I already reached SN last night, I have 50k more to go for the remainder of this year.
I decided to join November Marthon with hopes of winning sesion review from Collin Moshman !
Here are the plans for November and December

This challenge will involve following things:

- Playing 6 max turbos 15$ buy in
- 12 tabling on average
- Average monthly volume needed 4200 games
- I plan to have 2 days brake per month which brings average to 150 games 28 days a month

Challenge officially stars today and I will update this thread with graphs and volume.

Lets do this!

That was fast post from HollyMichelle, lol.

With volume challenges actual daily goal should be bit higher than just "volume target / days". Because when you aim bit higher you will be more likely in pace. Also there tend to be unexpected things to happen and you may miss some grinding days :)

E.g. if I personally try to go for sne next year I am not aiming to have 500k vpp in half point of year, but more likely around 600k. Just aiming to not end up in situation where there is deadline approaching and you wake up to realize you need to grind 1.5 times the planned amount. Gets easily quite stressful.

Great advice, couldn't agree with you more.
From October I might be entering poker office with Gerovit and 2 other grinders so there is potential to play even more games as I plan to spend there like 12+ hours a day minimum. You know how it goes, surrounded by people with same interest and grinders we will push ourselves not to slack off and keep moving forward. 4200 games a month is very good volume, I will of course aim to play even more , lets see what happens!

I will accept your 50$ bet just to increase pressure a bit more (not like there isn't enough already lol) and we will pick the charity 1st of January :)

Great to see a guy from Macedonia (I love that country and girls from it)
Volume is ok, I really don't see it as such a big deal. It will be more of a challenge to increase the game and mental focus then to grind 140 games every single day :)
Too bad we didn't know each other than - I followed also championship and had tons of fun with my friends in caffee places :)

Thank you man and see you around!

Ok, lets get things started.
About to play 1st session for the day, my current yearly VPP count is at 52.647.14 !
I might add some 30s in next 4 months but not so much that it will influence volume goal massively.

Graph coming at the end of the day and lets do this!!!
