Hello everyone!
I'm a former 2+2 member, but unfortunately, with the time that has passed since I have been active, I no longer remember my PW and no longer had the email to recover my name.
I was formerly known here as DKJ, not that I was anyone special, I'm just not a 2+2 newbie.
Anyhow, I'm an American player, and I'd heard from acquaintances that I had lost touch with (thank you social media) that there was some fairly safe online poker options facing the US again. My wife and I are on a fixed income, but I was still able to say the hell with it, and deposited $40 into ACR.
After the international charges from our Gestapo bank, I had a grand total of
$35.20 to begin my career again anew.
I was a 35-40% ROI player in SNG and micro/low MTT between FTP and PS before the horrors of Black Friday. I had just finalized my backing arrangements and was going to be playing 30+ events in SCOOP, and was ready to change my life. Obviously, my life changed in the opposite direction. Anyway, enough about old things... I'm looking at this as a possible new lease on my old life.
The long-term goal of this challenge is to take my $35.20 to $3520.00, focusing on micro MTT and SNG in the early going. The only cash I'm likely to play is the $2 max buyin .01/.02 NL games if I'm at the end of an evening and just want another table to keep sharp without opening another tournament. So this will be nearly exclusively a MTT/SNG challenge.
I'm also going to be cross-posting on CardsChat as that is where I started the challenge.
This thread is to keep myself constantly motivated and striving to get my old life back, while also getting back active in the poker community. I just was unable to bring myself to do it previously while feeling there was little hope of being to safely play online at home again.
THANK YOU for reading this novel and I hope you will follow along with me through the ups and downs -- and bust my balls when they need busting!
