On a separate note I seem to be doing well on the 18-45 man sngs with ($1.50 - $3.50) with 2 first place and 1 second place this morning. So I'll probably keep trying these less variance and pretty soft.

Anyways good luck and run good

So I have have been playing these on off for a while, although I missed the start of the challenge. I have made a few final tables over the last 2 days, although didn't make the top 3 where the money is. I tend to enjoy the $1 180 man hypers. They only last 30-40 mins and there's so many

(can't get this to line up nice :/ )

This is not a brag or anything, I was just curious about numbers. And I guess all this tells me I should stick to sit n go really.

As of the challenge. I did end up with a small profit over 100 games played, +$16. But as I said, I think 100 games is a bit small size to work with as variance and FT bad beats makes a huge variance on end profit.

Good results at $2.50-8s is 15-25% ROI whereas the really good regs can get up to about 30%. Due to the short stacks and push/fold nature of these games ROI is quite capped.

Sorry for the confusion Tom, the one I won was a sat to Sunday Million and not part of this challenge.
This isn't going great so far, but I'm sure I will show profit, even if small one when this challenge is over 😛

Im currently on 185.66 , im sure ive played 30 games as i have been recording results on a word document. The hud claims ive played 28 and my current balance should work out at 181.41. as its only sligtly off im not to worried.

So im moving forward on the basis of 30 games played in 6 days. With a current bankroll of 185.66 from the 30/8/14.

Not sure how to put photos on to here so if you guys want graphs or photos i may need some help.

Challenge update: 30 games played . Bankroll $83.46 . So more bankroll destroying than building . But im sticking with it.

In fairness i took some bad beats in the last 10 i played and lost some big flips also. Which is the nature of turbos i guess.

Im going to post some hands below. if anyone wants to comment on any of them feel free. Hope all you guys are doing better than me. I will probably post again after the weekend grind.

Sorry Tom i fear it was me distracting you in the chat. This challenge is a great idea and I am starting it now only in the $1 180's. I'll let you know how it goes.

On a side note i need to to stay out of tpe chat when playing 4-6 of these at 1 time. As im only playing on a laptop, there are just to many misclicks and timeouts when im in the chatroom.

Hope you guys are good. I heard mike is on the up in the challenge which is good to hear 🙂
