Posted by doomdy: Not so into poker lately cos of bussy ect. But get littl more time with the winter coming so trying to get more into poker. I challenge myself else i get too easily bored and stop playing.
The challenge is to start with $100 and a some low PKR-points (only 5000) and to get it too $1000 before X-mas. Gonna play kinda by the book, use bankrollmanagement and if i succeed i gonna copy and paste this style into another player who i will invest in (not the whole $1K).
I gonna play mostly SNG/phases and sometimes a low MTT.
Offcourse i also count my 30% rakeback as roll.
I try to update once a week.
Roll: $100 Points: 5,000
i wish u goodluck and try to count and badbeats and the moment of them

Posted by doomdy: Btw @ TheFly: Not a bad idea DoNs but low limit at PKR they suck cos of high rake (15%/20%). But its an idea if i reach $5 SNG stakes, TY sir
I guess you already played a bunch of DoNs in the past

You should be right - I've qualified for Masters twice before through the satellites.. Stage 1 & 2 are both really soft.. I mostly stopped playing them because it's hard for me (with Aussie time) to play the stage 3s.
Have you started your challenge yet doomdy? Progress?

Not played much since i started this challenge, but when i play i play very focussed so i like that. Only play phases atm which means no risk so great for challenge.
Bankroll: $98 Ticket mini masters $6 Phases tickets together $6ish.

Update:
Didnt play much, no volume yet due to not so much time atm. Anyway did play the mini masters with a free ticket i won ($6), did ofcourse the extra 1 rebuy so it did cost me $6 but not the full $12, did not cash so was a very expensiv one for my challenge. Did manage to win a final phase ticket ($21) in which i didnt cash. Those phase areso fishy and so easy, i didnt play many but winning this ticket was so easy, wonder if i put in volume how they go. Also played couple DoNs $3, break even so also nothing to mention.
all the best and i waiting for updates, i'll follow your upswing weekly :d
