I have been playing poker for around 9 years now. I started this challenge 1 week ago and was going to post the challenge once I grinded up to $100 USD, but I have so far grinded to $80 USD from $20 USD deposit 1 week ago Feb 12th 2018.
My biggest win so far which was August 2016, which was the Big $11 2nd place for $7500 USD. During that tournament, I was proud of myself because I folded JJ pre against QQ when there was only 30 left. Basically shortstack shoved in cutoff and smallblind minraised the shove. At the time I wasn't using a hud, and I made a judgement call. I folded faceup and the whole table respected my raises from then on out. I ended up coming 2nd and lost QQ vs AQ even stacks with 2000 people watching. Ohwell..
So far this week I have had several deep runs, just yesterday night I came 19th out of 2100 for a 25bb shove into my KK vs his AJ where he rivered a ACE on me. I also came 33rd in the Big 7.50 which I satellited in for $0.55, and 1st would have been $1,100 USD. I lost AA vs QJ suited all in pre for around a 23 bb stack.
Here's the thing about tournaments though, the guys that stay calm and don't get tilted, not only save money on mouses and keyboards, but also run deeper than the ones that let a little loss effect how they play the next hand.

Travel Plans:
I've allready prebook my hotel stay from May 27th- May 30th in New York City. I went 2 years ago with my girlfriend. We decided to leave Niagara Falls Canada and drive there from 3am,so that we can beat traffic. GUESS WHAT?? We arrived in New York City at 12pm which it took us around 3 hours to get infront of our hotel on Timesquare. But HEY we built memories and had a lot of fun.
Steaming:
I would love to stream this, but I feel like I'm the type of person that doesn't want to stream unless I have the pokerstream layout. If any of you have heard of a website that offers this layout, I would love to know so I can create a stream and stream for you guys!
I am trying to win ANY tournament by the end of February. Even if it's $100-$300 win. I've had so many deep runs lately, and got it in with 60-90% equity and lost.
I will keep you guys updated!
