play some fixed limit ring games- there is plenty to choose from, i suggest taking a shot at FL Omaha Hi/Lo- if you play super tight you can easily walk away with your own cash and don't risk anything more than the min $0.20 BI (yeah that's 20 cents) but that is valid if you have the basic understanding of the game itself. gl in whatever you choose

Just play a double or nothing sng, for like less than a dollars buy in and fold some hands like betting then fold on flop for 10 times, should be doable in one single sng or just play zoom for 10 hands, it is more than enough to do in less than 2 minutes, if you 4 tables and fold or call and fold. Anyway good luck, play lower sngs and stake to do the mission, not worth it to move up level to do that challenge. Anyway good luck mate have fun with the challenges and hope you win the flip tournaments or shotout as we say it on PS lol!

I put this in the other thread by accident,...so I just copied it over here...:
Thanks for all the info guys...!
I played the $25 Buy in .25c/.50c ZOOM tourney and got in my ten hands... You can see the progress in the special window...!
Started with $25 at the table...few hands later...about $28,...thought I'd jack that up a bit and after a few hands found my stack dwindling... Got down to about $13 and thought I'd better make a few moves...
Got back up to about $21 and tried to get back to par...
...Soon wound up down to about $7.... < P aN i C
...thought I'd better make a few moves...
... Few hands later....back up to $25.96 or so...
I left with my challenge done,...and about .36c profit.... Woo-Hooooo....!!!
Hey guys,.... I like them ring games.... Play your cards right, and you can make a LOT of money FAST...!!!

You need to play 10 hands total and you are asking for advice? Seriously If there is no limit go to the lowest one and it will cost you just 20 cents for the big blinds, and you might win also something. But you got your goal from a tourney i see

He got his goal playing zoom and i believe he was asking for advice on cash games in general as he is a tournament player and wants to know about that style

Correct Sir...!
Yes,...very different kind of play compared to tourney style,.....especially 'freerolls',....and ESPECIALLY BrM leaderboard tourneys on PokerStars...
Folks are a lot quicker to back off when they actually have something to lose...and you can lose quick there too...!
Quite the roller coaster ride THAT was...! I'm likin' that ZOOM thing...! You can even sit out and not lose chips...!

I dont like zoom bcause you're either against wide range or prrmium hand only. So u gonna win alot or lose alot. Idk. If that makes any sense to you guys. But thats my opinion. I like Cap NLHE tables
