Hello 2+2!
First of all a bit of presentation
My name is Francesco, I am a 26 yo professional poker player and coach from Italy, playing poker since 2010 but professionally from 2013.
I like challenges (did some in the past), it is a long time that I wanted to do one like this and since "played poker" is not anymore my main income, I would say that finally the time has come!
My goal is to start with a very tiny bankroll (100€) and move up to NL100 starting from NL2. I will use a quite aggressive BR strategy, this is my idea:
100€ start @NL2
150€ -> LVL UP NL5
-------------------------------------
125€ -> LVL DOWN NL2
300€ -> LVL UP NL10
-------------------------------------
250€ -> LVL DOWN NL5
750€ -> LVL UP NL25
-------------------------------------
625€ -> LVL DOWN NL10
1.500€ -> LVL UP NL50
-------------------------------------
1.250€ -> LVL DOWN NL25
3.000€ -> LVL UP NL100 - MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
I've always been a super-nit in BR management during my poker career, so feel free to suggest any change, I'm still working on it and adjustments are probably needed.
I will post daily updates here with results, stats, graphs, impression and basically everything I consider interesting!
I will play on Pokerstars.it and my plan is to start at zoom, but I may change to normal if I think it will be better for any reason.
I will occasionally play at NL50-NL100 in another poker room, but just to keep myself "warm" at a higher stake since I will keep my coaching activity going on. This will not affect this challenge at all.
Why did I choose to do this?
As I said I like this kind of things, plus I'm working on a poker course relative to the micros with written and video material, so this could be very inspiring for me. Will give updates about that too in this thread!
I plan to stream some sessions on twitch, this is my channel:

I will try to inform you before every stream directly on this thread
I really don't know how much time I will be able to dedicate at this challenge every day, so I will not set a deadline.
The challenge will officially start the 1st October, but it is quite possible that I will already have few hands since I'm trying softwares and HUDs!
