This challenge seems to become a cliche, bare with me.

I have taken up the challenge to turn 100$ into 10k$ in 12 month time period, 5 bullets allowed. 100% of challenge MUST BE STREAMED ON TWITCH!

Challenge will take place on Natural8, I start with 15% RB which is counted towards the challenge. If I succeed, I shall receive additional 10k$ prize.

You all know this HS fish wcg is doing the same challenge, and after 1 month of hc grind he shows massive 45$ profit or so. Why will I succeed?

1) I've done it like twice in last 3 years;
2) 10k actually has meaning to me - I'm from Baltics and, 10k is more than avg yearly;
3) I've been grinding micros for living way too long, and I see this as opportunity to grow roll for mid stakes.

Challenge starts at NL10, and if we are fortunate enough - we might see some of The Great Game of Pot Limit Omaha!

As I mentioned, all of the grind will be streamed, look for JaySPokerr on twitch and twitter! Streaming times will be 8am-whenever GMT on weekdays with optional weekends. Feel free to support me as all of my income for challenge period will be frozen as I am not allowed to cash out, and my saving are limited.

Few words about me - I'm 23 y/o has-been athlete who's now fighting for his spot under the sun.

I have never streamed before, so pls don't troll me too hard in beginning as I have to get used to it. Also, English is not my first language.

Kiss kiss bang bang - it goes down on Monday!

Power of clicccccccksss tho

Casual quads. Had another quads, but there was a software glitch and I got d/c and timed out

Day 9 - received this email post morning session:


My ques it is due to my offline picture: (WARNING, VERY SEXUAL PICTURE, DO NOT VENTURE IF YOU'RE UNDER 21!!!!!!!!)

Or wallpaper on my back wall (AGAIN YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY TO VIEW IT)

Day 10 - got super close to NL25, but slipped a bit back

235/1000$
23.5%

Going live for day 11 in couple mins!

Day 11 - hit 250 mark in morning, started to mix 2x NL10 and 2x NL25, all good so far. Gonna keep mixing till 350, NL50 mix at 750. So in 2 weeks I have almost tripled my BR!

IMO 100-1k mark (aka sub goal 1) is the hardest part of this challenge. Once we get healthy roll for even NL50, we can start printing for real with 0% ROR.

Off for the weekend, back Monday morning!

subbed gl op!

Well, it's never exactly 0%, but it's going to be negligibly low for sure.

Ironically, WildHungarian is allowed to have a mildly obscene offline picture (of herself with only about half the boobs covered). Apparently, Twitch forgives some things to its partners that it doesn't forgive to non-partners. I'd change or hide the bikini wallpaper too, better safe than sorry.

GL, subbed!

Welcome! You are the first person to join my journey to the top! You shall not regret it! I feel that great things will come from this challenge!

Hey, Coon74! Yep, I already hid the booty of my wallpaper, such a waste

glgl in your quest!
Might do something like this myself, but without the twitching part.
How is Natural8 as a site? Easy to get money in or out? And is there a site where u can sign up through to get extra rakeback?

Thanks for stepping in!
I PM'd you regarding your questions.

Don't you want to get extra $10K just for twitching? That's strange if so.

Frustrating day 12. Everything went smooth, ran it up to 375$, but started to run like aids, lost 30$ AK<KJo PF AI jadajada. Still a decent BR increase though.

Guys, it turns out one needs X number of channel followers so that twitch gives an option for the viewer to change stream quality (therefore a chance to view it with weaker internet / mobile device). So please, visit my channel at https://www.twitch.tv/jayspokerr and press that follow button!

p.s. I apologize if posting links is not allowed, do not be mad mods.

I told that earlier on your other forum - it's way easier for you to just set a lower quality and bitrate for your stream for the time being than to get enough viewers. At least judging by old Reddit discussions, quality settings are granted to the top X streamers at any given moment (independently of the number of followers); sadly, not even everyone from the poker top 20 (where you are during your streaming hours because they're off-peak for poker) is in the global (all-game) top 1200.

It's poker, not DotA. It's a turn-based game so graphics are unimportant. As long as the cards and the stack sizes are legible, you're good to go. For a 4-table grid, 480p is more than enough, even 360p is bearable. The frame rate can be lowered too.

Yep, now I get what you meant - I'm newbie at twitching :/
I've set my stream at 480p now, so will see how it goes tomorrow.

Day 15 - got some food poisoning yesterday, therefore bathroom was my friend all night long, therefore very little sleep, 0 energy and feeling like ****. Pushed in 3.5h regardless, played solid C game like a boss!

Sub goal 1
605/1000$
60.5%

The variance was on your side, though - congrats!

You're of course not obliged to stream every day or even every week (look how seldom Xuan Liu streams) - do it only when you feel well. May you recover fast!
