2p-4p challenge

edited June 2013 in Poker Chat

Hey!

Was thinking it would be a good ideato have a 2p -4p challenge to see how much profit can be made over a week playing at this level, so all the regular 2p-4p players/ forum regs can get involved.

Starting today (saturday) for 1 week I will be posting up on here with how i am doing/ not doing just to keep it interesting. Would be brilliant if other regs at this level posted up on here to, to see who can make the most profit from Saturday to next friday.

Maybe it will answer how much profit can be made in a week at this level.

Might also be interesting to higher level cash players just to see what's happening. Bit different to the lower stake diaries, and gets a bit of competition going.

Good luck!

    I will post my days losses up each night mate.

    Next weeks aim is to only lose £700 instead of my normal £750 so at least i can get a few beers a dvd and a pizza to chill out after the weeks grind is done :)

    But in all honesty GL with this cos it could be a good read

    Lost this pot, interesting hand, player was pretty loose and aggressive, i could have got away from it, however way he was playing i think i have to call. Should have also 4 bet pre flop tho he would have been calling all the way!

    Playing a bit again later on tonight.

    This week i'm only going to play 2p 4p Cash. Seems the optimum for me is to be playing 4 tables.

    Profit Goal, £35 by next friday, if i can get enough games in:D

  • edited March 2013
    Would join you with this Larson, but NL4 tilts the box out of me and im not the best cash player. Also you picked the micro millions week to do it, so im commited to that 

    Best of luck though.

    Hi All

    4 1/2 hours play £3 up won't get rich like this but a win is a win bamkroll is moving up but very slow.
  • edited March 2013
    +8 buyins well just over, wanted the 10 but just couldnt get the last one, cost myself a couple of quid towards the end there, guess its time for bed
  • edited March 2013
    Short session +£8.19

    Running total +£24.19
  • edited March 2013
    Agree about the AQ, they are never donk betting and betting pot 3 streets with a worse hand, hard to fold vs a loos e player though.
  • edited March 2013

    Session 3 + 4, was up and down ended up with a small profit of £1.78

    Made a couple of bad calls, getting it all in with 2 pair against a short stack set.

    Set, oppo rivered a flush. But a profit is a profit haha

    Total Profit £4.62

    Ran a mad bluff last night against Tintin, I raise Tintins limped in, i'm sitting with q 9,

    Flop comes down 3, 3,7/8 high, i bet Tintin calls with 9s, turn is a nine. I bet Tintin calls. River is a 2 or something, Tintin checks i check haha Bluffing some1 with a full house, not good:D

    Couple of hands from today:

    First one wasn't loving the second all in but i cant fold

    Second Hand, im not in love with Kings but i still think i'm ahead

    Thanks Don, no what you are saying about 2p-4p, doing this keeps me focussed.

    Would love to reach £35, but doubt i will cause wont have much chance during the week for playing, except maybe an hour in the evening.

    Spinky

    "Hi All

    4 1/2 hours play £3 up won't get rich like this but a win is a win bamkroll is moving up but very slow."

    Thats brilliant! A profit is a profit and if your bankroll is going in the right direction cant ask anymore than that.
  • edited March 2013
    I'll keep you company Larson.

    Just now +£7.73 and +£0.77

    Should have been a lot more but lost a big allin with AK suited vs two Jacks and missed a lot of flush draws.

    Running total: +£32.69

    When you insta (we are talking nano seconds) shove, see the other player (me) call, fistpump, then get the bad news. I am only posting this because the chap that lost was berating other players at the table, swearing at them etc.

    This hand made me happy.
