Personal challenge: Supernova

The thing is, I was on a road for three months and lost my current Supernova status. Also wasn't thinking to reach Supernova again this year, but I've decided now to give it a try. Since I'd have to be really disciplined, I'm hoping that a public topic would force me to keep the schedule :f_cool:

I'd need to collect 615,3 daily VPP on average, which is roughly 3-4 hours on the current NL50 limit I play.

I'll update the topic every day, with the challenge progress and graph of my play. Let's begin!

Okay.. So the first day was a total fiasco :ayfkm:
Need to work on my red line, which ironically was ruined by my attempts to play more aggressive preflop. People fight back way too much in NL50.

Played my A-game today, also managed to fix the red line :f_thumbsup:
If not a few coolers in a middle of a day, would have been a perfect score.

5227 hands: 1089,8 VPP

Hand of a day:

  • A♣:A♠: - I don't always trap, but when I do..

Riding the wave of the A-game :sifflote:

2379 hands: 455,7 VPP (average: 872,2)

Hand of a day:

  • 5♥:5♠: - usually there's no need to slow-play against a recreational player :f_pleased:

Hi webhunky,

Nice blog. :f_drink:
I am trying to reach the same goal as you by the end of 2016. I am playing FR NL25 atm.
Look forward to seeing how you get on.

All the best

Regards

Matt

Hi folks, are you motivated to finish the Supernova chase now, after the 2016 VIP reward reductions for Supernovas have been leaked (see also the discussion thread in the Russian community)? [I forgot to edit a few Google Translate hiccups there - they were talking about reducing the motivation to play for the sole sake of rewards, not to play for the sake of winning, of course.)

I cracked.. Was managing tilt quite well lately, but two days of constant beating just got me :facepalm:
At one point lost 570$ in 500 hands, which is the new record of my "career" :rage: And EV owes me insane 900$ in just two days.

5504 hands: 1417,6 VPP (average: 903,5)

Hand of a day:

  • Q♣:Q♠: - good to be on the lucky side for once :sifflote:

P.S. tonypmm, not sure how to react yet, I still have a goal to reach Supernova and then we'll see..
