I agree that winning $900 in 40 sessions would be a ridiculous underachievement, but no one is capable of consistently turning $100 into $1000 with an 80% success rate in these games.
Also, where are these $100nl and smaller live games that you speak about? I have never actively searched for such games, but I don't believe I have ever seen anything less than $200nl in any casino nlhe game.
theres .50/$1 in vegas and every LA casino has a $100 and under game
chicago everyone plays home games that are even more soft
mississippi is the softest state in the nation after louisiana
ive never been to st louis or louisville so i can't comment but i'd still imagine they'd be incredibly softer than playing on wsop.com which doug basically admits is a terrible site to try to win on.

the point is to market the training site to low stakes players and show them that if they play low stakes with perfect doug polk poker they can grind out a significant amount of money and move up in stakes quickly. the bankroll challenge has been kind of a hilarious counter-example of that.
the easiest way to move up to midstakes is to play live. idk why anyone would contest this. moving out of midstakes is hard to do live because its much less likely you can find high stakes action or even put in enough consistent midstakes volume unless you're in a few areas. but if you're a lowstakes player and trying to break out by playing online you're basically a fish for life imo.
