Hey man. Just read your first post and I see you already achieved your first goal (nl20). Congratz!

Good to see Everest didn't close your account! Just read the thread and I honestly didn't expect they would help you out too.

yeah, tbh i wasnt expecting it either .... their support is kinda stright-forward about their rules.
last time i asked them if i can change one letter in my nickname cause i mistyped it and they just totally refused :rolleyes:

and thanks, im hoping to reach some more now :P

thanks gary! :)

2 hands from today:

this one was kinda tricky otr

no data on villain, considering his stack he is probably fishy

turn check/bet? i decided to check back cause i will push out everything weaker and i dont see really any value in betting there,
only type of hand that could call is some 9♥9x/T♥Tx

river is an obv vbet ofc, once he raises i think he has a ton of bluffs cause he doesnt really rep much, and rarely flushes
(would probably donk river) + my sizing might induce

ive been playing HU SnG's lately for fun cause sometimes i get tired of CG's...

playing $1 - $10

im a sng noob, but damn those players suck :rolleyes:

played like 20 in total and won like 17 of them.... well obv 20 is no sample at all, but they are just :facepalm:
if i had a mental game strong enough to withstand 100BI swings, i'd prolly give it a shot, but i dont, so im just gonna stick to CG for now :f_cool:

srsly, the only tough players i ever saw (2/20) were those playing $10

sng's are fun though, def gonna play them ff....

if anyone here is interested sometimes, id like a challenge vs competent player (ill play up to $5, maybe $10) trust me, its +ev for ya :P

- playing on iPoker

tomorrow's gonna be tough

i have a whole day off so....

going for the "every day im shuffling" badge on SideKick so i can get some bragging rights after i upload it here :coolface:
and also cause im falling behind the targeted hands/day earning me a platinum status

10 000 hands....means im gonna have to 4-table SPEED for about 9-10 hrs which sounds pretty exhausting but i hope i can make it

wish me luck

:)

ok so my plan for tomorrow:

8:00 - wake up
8:00-8:30 - breakfast
8:30-12:30 - poker 4k hands
12:30-1:30 - lunch
1:30-3:00 - go to the doctors and get my leg fixed (broken a finger a while back)
3:00-7:00 - poker 4k hands
7:00-8:00 - dinner
8:00-10:00 - poker 2k hands
10:00-01:00 - whatever/play remaining hands if any

hope it works out :P

10k hands didnt go as planned :(

first of all, i couldnt run 4 speed tables + PT4 + sidekick + skype on my old laptop, the poor dude just couldnt
handle it, lagging after 10 min of using....
so i went down to 3 tables, which would take like 13 hrs of playing, which is pretty much impossible, to complete the challenge

obv unrealistic, so after 4.5k hands i just folded and took the profits
i was tired + realizing i cant make it on time

7 BI's up, almost 3BI under EV...

call me weak, call me bad..... i just couldnt do it

next time :evil:

Ok, so after i was able to aquire a stake of $600, ill make this a new challenge

The deal is for 100k hands on NL20 speed and the challenge will be

From $600 to $2000

this requires a 7bb/100 outcome in 100k hands, which imo is not very hard to do since ill have about 3bb/100 RB and 4bb/100 profits is very much archievable

after the challenge (which will take approximately 1.5-2 months) and acquiring $2000, ill be shipping 600+700 to the original staker and it will leave me with $600 of my own capital

- this is just my predicted scenario, maybe ill make more, maybe less, but i obv hope for more :P

ill be starting today and ill be posting daily graphs :)
