MTTS
Played $2 6 max mtt finished 600/3600, exit hand was aipf AQ v KK v JJ for a 30k pot (chip ave was 14k)
i spiked an A but river brought a K ;(
Dont mind this spot tho as the decent money is final table only!
Cash
Played 3tables of NL10 and was v naughty and played 1 table of NL100, shortstacking
Lost a little on NL100 but never went busto however was running hot NL10
Really need to stop short stacking as its so -EV for this challenge, UNLESS i triple up lol
Finished session $6 up
Final Bankroll tonight - $108
60bb is ok for 3 hours, but found last hour i played pretty poorly, and stopped 3betting, mainly concentrating on MTT
Got chance to play a fair amount on tomorrow night, and possibly saturday and sunday
Gonna limit myself to 1 $2 mtt and 4 table NL10 until end of this week, hopefully break $150 by sunday evening
:) :) :)

What a pointless day!
SOOOOOOO FRUSTRATING!!!!!
Starting Balance $102
Closing Balance $102
NL10 - sucked today, lost a lot of flips and got my nuts cracked on more than one occasion!!!
NL100 - yea i got bored and shortstaked this a little, finished $20 down when my TT on T83 board got shoved on by J9 - river 7. Also had AA cracked by 66 aipf w00p
DoN - won 2 x $10 ones to get my roll back to where it started!!!
this challenge is gonna be harder than i thought, especially to get a decent roll started. Once $500 + it wil be easier!!!
at NL10 seem to loose BIG pots and win little ones!!!,
AND I NEVER GET ACTION WITH AA or KK, and when i do it gets cracked!

Back on the Horse
Played the heap i mentioned on last post and struggled
played 4x $3 stts and didnt cash once! came 4/5/4/4 lol
but had a cash in a $3 mtt for a measly $8 and won a buyin on the NL10
all in all account balance is $112.
Waiting for my sofa to arrive today so will haveing a biggish session today, as will be playing from 12 until 6 uk time.
Gonna play a couple of mtts ($3/$2) but 4 table NL10 as im breaking that.
May try a couple of 180man $4 mtts once roll is at $200.
Sadly i dont get enough time to play as much as id like, but think atm NL10 will have to be my bread and butter until a decent win. Wanna move up to NL25 asap, when i have 15 buyins ill jump over probably.
Need really to play live as that'll build my roll up nicely. My 50 deposit will b used for live cash i thinks at t he end of december, gonna attempt to play a heap of 25p/50p at the Gala, as xmas pokerz is soft!!!!

Need some stabilty!
Well over first few days i doubled roll by playin NL10 nad NL25 and running like god
Decided to grind cash and some micro mtts today and fell into doomswitch mode.
Bubbles the $3 6 max coming 243/2378 with 240 getting paid - aipf with ak va7
Then had AA cracked aipf 3x NL25 in 10 minutes by AKss, JJ and 44 - Lovely times
So roll is down to $108 now and back to square 1
I know NL25 was a silly sit but its soo beatable.
Gonna shoot up 10 x $3 sngs and some $5 HU sngs too as they are v soft, and try and play a few micro mtts tonight.
All the while runninf 3xNL10 cash tables in background
Onetime!

The Challenge is On
After speaking to a few friends about this blog (that i never update!) and my target goal of $4k, a few of my mates reckon that $4k is easy as its only really one MTT win away. lol
So they have bet me the following:
Turn $100 into $8k in 13 months
Now i HATE xmas, yes im a scrooge, but i hate it sooo much so the bet end date is Dec 20th 2010.
If i win, they each owe me 150pounds each (there is 3 of them), however if i lose they are allowed to a) decorate my house with xmassy crap inside and out
b) i have to cook them a xmas dinner, all the trimmings on boxing day next year.
c) i have to dress up as Santa, whether leaving the house or not, from the 20th Dec 2010 until 27th Dec 2010.
Now my missus is in on it so i cant just not do any of them, and as i hate xmas this should get me to maintain my focus.
Rules -
Starting Roll - $100
Depositing - i can deposit a maximum of 50pounds each month in my quest, however my finishing roll must be $8k profit, so these deposits must be deducted.
Sites - i can use any sites i want and roll is combined
Live Sattys - if i sat into a live event then this DOES count towards roll (ie i step up to UKIPT then the cost of package i win is included in my roll)
Any tournament $ i win DO NOT count and i must play them through.
Well update, as its day 3 of the challenge and the first time i loaded up Stars, and won 5 buyins at NL10 to get roll up to $150
Only $7850 to go!!!
