I am overall pleased with my volume and progress for the first 2 weeks of my challenge. I have gone from $200 to $1,540 so far.

The games on Bovada have been quite good. The MTTs have been crushing the GTDs most days so I am interested to see if they bump any up. Obviously overlays are nice, but its not a good sign if tournaments are overlaying consistently.

I have done a little bit of studying but need to do more. I have a decent sample with enough deep runs to start analyzing my play and finding leaks.

I have been watching videos on Youtube and Twitch of No Limit Gaming (Fedor and Co.) and Raise Your Edge (bencb). Both are extremely great free content, especially for someone of my skill/experience level. I have played so much poker over the past 10 years, I am able to pick up on a lot of what they are doing.

I am not claiming to be honed in on every spot like they are, but I have a good, broad idea of strategies they are using.

Thanks! I have not decided which Day 1 flight I will play yet (there is 4). The first couple flights are usually a lot looser because you can re-enter and also play more flights if you dont make it through.

I know what you mean about being busy at work. One day at a time!

Thanks for inspiration Stuff.
Gave me back much needed focus again and I stopped splashing around like a donk.
My volume not yours - but I ran $250 deposit up to $600 in <500 cash hands.

I am on life-tilt right now though.
Got locked out of ignition after multiple sign-in attempts from different computer and Captcha dyslexia (remembering my latest Passwords is my Kryptonite).
Support says will get back to me in 72 hours. 72 Hours!!

Glad to hear you are focused again! That has been my largest leak over the last several years.

As for being locked out of your account, you can try calling them. I know they take a lot of customer calls. 1-888-263-0000 is the number for Bovada. Not sure if its the same for Ignition but you could start there.

Off to a late start tonight. I late regged 8 MTTs and I only have 2 of them left. Its a small sample but I believe a large part of my early success has been at least partly due to me registering everything in level 1. I have been able to chip up in a lot of MTTs becuase of this factor.

Long term I don't know how much of a difference late reg vs. pre reg makes? I assume its got to be higher ROI but lower hourly? That's assuming you play profitable deep and profitable with a 10-30bb stack, which I am confident I do. That said, I will continue to pre reg as much as possible.

I forgot to mention that last night I won a ticket to the $82 10k Gtd K.O. off an $11 buyin, so I'll be playing that tonight.

I decided to withdraw $600. $360 (less if I sell some pieces) will be used for the live tournament this weekend and the rest will be used to put on ACR.
Withdraw request > Blockchain > Coinbase > bank in under 24 hours. Not bad! $10 fee on Coinbase which is annoying. Anyone ever use Coinbase Pro or other alternatives to Coinbase?

Thanks! Just made the money in the $82 10k. I only have 10bb so need to find a double. I have 2 bounties at $20 each + a $91 min cash locked up so no matter what, its been a good payout off of $11.

Edit: knocked out a short stack then lost AKs to JJ. Cashed for a total of $159.

Thank you! Yes, I played at Aces last night. Are you playing?

That said, it did not go well haha. I lost basically every pot I played. Picked up some decent hands preflop but had to fold before showdown every time until I got to 3 bet jam 22bb otb w/ TT vs a bad player's utg open and bad player's cu call. Utg re-shipped AQs and won.

The good news is the whole table was really bad yet very pleasant to play with. Good combination. I certainly plan to play the live events around MN this year.

I will probably play a Qualifier to the $1,100 MSPT at Canterbury next week.

Hopefully online goes better tomorrow. I think I should be back on ACR for some events.

Playing the MOSS events #1-6 today on ACR plus a few others. I am also playing some stuff on Bovada. Not running well so far except for qualifying for the $55 125k on ACR for $6.60.

Will update later with any deep runs.

My name is brobar (lol made the account shortly after Black Friday but it has rakeback) Whats your name?

And dont worry, as long as you have Ax facing my shove, you are safe to call off. Been 3 outed about 10 times today now.

Still in the $22 60k (gtd got to 100k!) and some smaller events.

Coinbase can block your account and/or funds for going to and from gambling sites. Not sure about coin jar.

Any of you guys use Cash App? Thinking about playing back on ACR again as well and was told you get a free $20 if you use the App. Was thinking about going the route everyone has been telling me which is Bank(Card)>Coinbase>Blockchain>Site but Bank(Card)>Coinbase>Cash App might be better?

Does anyone win on ACR in the low stakes MTTs? I have sharkscoped over 150 ppl and theres like 5 winners over a large sample and a ton of big losers.

I am basically b/e over 1.5k games with 35k in cashes.
