10 days to reach NL25

Good luck

What games are you going to play at first, 5NL or something else?

I'm starting with NL16 Zoom.

I started with NL5 a few weeks ago, using 5 BI BRM. But for NL25 I want to get around 25 BI's a.k.a. 625$+ is the goal.

I was up to 230$ or so, but hit like two days where I went -100$. So now I challenge myself to get a proper bankroll for the next limit.

Hey KingKas,

Nice challenge. You should take a look at our Get Rich or Die Tryin' promotion as well as Goal-Getter.

Get Rich or Die Tryin' has no time limit, but Goal getter ends at the end of the month. Who knows, you could win a PS hoodie.

@Lazza61 Thanks Maybe if I reach NL25, as a new challange I will join.

Starting BR today: 140.52$(+ 0$ rakeback)

Overall, some stupidly played spots by myself and running against my favour, bringing me in sticky situations.

Positive though, I'm reviewing my hands every morning and watch a lot more videos.

I don't think anyone runs as bad as I do. I went from NL16 to NL2 within a few days.

Just saying, I play at least 3k hands every day, up to 5 on some, and I give all I can, but I just run terrible as hell. Just the last 2 examples from right now which pushed me to NL2.

But, gotta adopt a good mentality. Start again and again, until it works x.x

But I will adopt a proper BRM now finally, so that when I step up I won't have to step down again, because that's quite frustrating.

Maybe I finally learnt.

Basic situation maybe you could avoid going broke in the river by checking your a 4 , because there is four straight on the board , villain probably check back to you

good luck and see you at the tables again
