Good start obviously not a sample size but just getting the thread going with my short 1st session. Weird session with few setups the first 400 hands. I will try and play 3k hands tomorrow and post

Recognize your SN from the 100z pool. Aren't you 2 tabling most of the time? If so, it will be quite of a achievement to play 100k hands in 40 days.

GL with your challenge!

i think players make the mistake to play too many tables to kind of validate that they play well and pro level. Most regs value themselves higher while watching themselves play more tables. It clearly hurts your EV though. Play less hours, less tables, study more is the way I see it. Challenge can be extended in term of days as long as I dont lose EV. Will play 3 tables zoom max because of all these arguments

        while this is true, he should not have AK without a diamond like ever.

        i meant having a diamond here is actually bad for him. Agree he never has AK without diamond in that river

        nice upswing today over 2500 hands. Running very good at the moment with insane WSD close to 59% (should be between 49 and 51% pretty much... around 47% on downswing). Still feel like the pool is pretty soft, playing ok i think but most of the money coming from people throwing money at me
